The Next Adventure
-
Last year we had a great time getting to know a lot more of the wildlife living around our home. The kids were really excited to receive their Discovery Award later in the summer, but I think the really valuable bit was them starting to realise some of the fabulous nature that was right on their doorstep, and the time we spent together exploring. So, this year we thought we should carry on, but with a different challenge. The pine marten is one of those illusive creatures that I hoped I might one day get a glimpse of in Scotland, but never have. So, having been to a talk about their re-introduction into Wales a couple of years ago, and hearing they might now be resident in North Wales, we decided we would volunteer with the Vincent Wildlife Trust and help in the expansion survey they are carrying out this year.
