Starting Nature Study

Not quite sure where to begin with this blog, I thought I'd start with a post about nature study. Not great photos, I know, but I'm still getting the hang of this!

Nature study in our local park

Spring is here, and I love taking the children to our local park. As well as the jays seen at the top of my blog we also see great tits, blue tits, chaffinches, nuthatches, woodpeckers, sparrows, blackbirds and pigeons. A few flowers are beginning to emerge after the cold, harsh winter: dog violets, spring crocuses, celandines and snowdrops. I'm really enjoying learning the names of the various aspects of God's creation that we see around us here.
