Blowing the seeds from the head of this little Dandelion 🌼will tell you the time ⌚ in the Fairy World.

Either the number of seeds remaining will let you know whether or not the fairies are in bed or it is the number of blows required to clear the seeds.

Birds, such as…

If food labels were honest and a great soundtrack 👇🏼

A long but fun weekend conducting what I think is probably the most intensive set of environmental surveys I've ever done - luckily we were rewarded by some good species spots (I nearly stood on the adder...)

Sharing some big news for us: we’ve now taken ownership of 125 acres of ex-dairy farm land in the Peak District, adjacent to our house. It’s called Sunart Fields and the bold aim is to rewild the land, giving nature a true home to flourish in (and capturing some carbon)

More than half of Earth’s remaining wild areas could disappear in the next few decades if we don’t decisively act. This is why today I am excited to launch @Rewild - to help protect what’s still wild and restore the rest.

The Protecting Our Planet Challenge, which includes my organization @Rewild, announced plans in partnership with the Brazilian govt. to invest $200 million in the Amazon over the next four years to support the expansion & management of protected areas & Indigenous territories.

🤩 We're thankful, excited and humbled that #TheRewildPodcast by our host James Shooter just went over a 100.000 downloads! 🥳

With already 14 beautiful episodes, we're happy that so many of you joined us on this inspiring #rewilding journey 👉 rewildingeurope.com/the-rewild-pod…

Colombia has declared Isla Ají a marine protected area. The locally led movement to protect the area will safeguard 246 km² of the country’s Pacific coast, shelter threatened species, & sustain local communities' traditional livelihoods. WCS Re:wild (📷: Darren Lawrence)

Thank you to the REWILD team for helping me pick out the perfect plant. When small businesses like this one succeed, America succeeds.

Today is #IntlForestDay
We’re loosing 10 million acres of forest every year, at a time when we need to maximise every possible carbon sink.
In some places planting trees is a great solution but given our timeframe the most effective way is to protect and rewild existing forests.

You will often find Holly trees growing around or (like this one) right by the base of an older 🌳.

During a Winter ❄️ not so long ago a little 🐦‍⬛ filled up on Holly 🍒 and later stopped to rest in the branches of this big Oak 🌳.

The result of this little rest was a brand new…

🌳 Folklore of Trees🌳 Nettles in pasta and pesto

May is without doubt the month of the Hawthorn and our meadows & woodlands are, right now, bedecked in the beautiful May blossoms 💮 of the fairy 🌳.

That being said the Hawthorn 🌳 is always magnificent.

Enchanting & magical at all times of the year....even in the dead of…

There is a bit of a running theme in Irish folklore ☘️ when it comes to native flowers & magnificent golden Buttercups 🌼 are no different.

On the day before Beltane(Bealtaine)/Mayday, Buttercups along with other flowers would be collected & used to decorate the outside of…

A little self seeded Hazel 🌳 growing in a small section of planted woodland.

If this little 🌳 is left alone it will probably live for around 80 years but if it is coppiced by humans or maybe even by animals it will renew & almost, in a sense, forget to grow old. Coppicing will…

Thanks to a powerful collaboration btwn Re:wild, @Coldplay & Global Citizen ⭕, governors from 3 Brazilian Amazonia states are committing to conservation & climate goals for the irreplaceable Amazon rainforest (📷 CharlieHamiltonJames) Tune into Global Citizen ⭕ now on ABC or stream online.

This little Holly 🌲 is quite happy sitting in the rain beneath the Cherry trees & listening to the birds sing.

They are a perfect understory tree for any woodland. They are Ireland's only native evergreen broadleaf tree & their extremely rich green leaves allow them to…

Metres apart but worlds apart.

The difference between a mown area of public grass & one that is left to its own devices is just phenomenal.

One is beautiful & full of life 🌼🐝🦋 & one is dead.

Which do you prefer?
