Loving the Chris Packham series on BBC, “Evolution”. The Bat has been my favourite episode so far.

In the spaces between, there are lots of different species of plants but thistle seems to dominate: creeping thistle, which apparently isn’t native (assuming the Picture This app has identified it correctly) and spear thistle, which is.

Now that it’s autumn, be on the lookout for seeds of native trees that you can plant out next year. Here’s three English oaks (Quercus robur) I planted four years ago. I found the acorns in Wales, put them in the fridge over winter, and potted them at the end of January.

Skeins of pink footed geese have been arriving at the Firth of Forth this week. Here they come over Salisbury Crags.
