Day 15: I decided to turn to The Wildlife Trusts for inspiration. Their app suggesting 101 Random Acts of Wildness is free to download and easy to use. Today’s choice was to explore somewhere wild.
I walk past a community woodland daily, so decided to make a quick visit before work.
Mab Lane Community Woodland is part of the Mersey Forest and was opened in 2010. Before that the land was disused and a spot for fly-tipping. However the land was developed, 20,000 trees were planted and now there are pathways for both walkers and cyclists and is a haven for wildlife.
On my short walk, I noticed bees enjoying the brambles, wildflowers among the grasses, swallows flying overhead and the noisy chatter of baby birds in the trees.
Do you have a community development like this one near you?
Thanks for reading, and stay wild!

I love the bees on bramble photograph. So many wild flowers around now. I see new ones every week. 🙂
Christine, this afternoon we had 3 frogs in our back yard. Wl was moving the bins and there they were, almost camaflaged in some leaf mulch. Then one jumped…and so did we. X
