Owl on a post One of the last sightings of the owls before they dispersed and the field became empty for over a year.
Pondlife A few months of work have paid off and the pond is looking a lot better, and thriving with life.
Poor ash It looked perfectly healthy, but a storm brought down this 200 year old ash tree. At least we’re not short of firewood for the next few winters.
Yuk A grey, smelly, overgrown puddle, but with a bit of effort we hope to bring this old pond back to life.
Hooty The first sighting of this most beautiful of creatures, and a good incentive for the work ahead of us.
2016 The Beginning In March 2016 we took ownership of the field and started down a long road of restoration with the aim creating a natural wildlife haven based on a traditional English meadow.
2009 A desert in Shropshire Intensive farming can create a desert-like landscape almost devoid of wildlife. Fortunately the field was soon afterwards abandoned to nature. (photo courtesy of Google Maps)
