The way down. And then back up again.

Reposted from @rangerchrisnorthcornwall - Everyone loves a good old ‘Spring Clean’, and with the volunteer group, that’s just what we did on the beaches at Duckpool, Warren Gutter and Sandymouth. I think some of the limpets may even have had a dust and polish. #beachclean #marinepollution #saveourseas #cleanerseas #springclean #lovenature #volunteers #nationaltrust #duckpool #northcornwall - #regrann

Reposted from @northcornwallranger - We've been out battling the invasive three cornered leek over the last few weeks. Allium triquetum was introduced into the UK in the 1800s from the Mediterranean. Despite being nice to look at, it can take over and outcompete our native flora. So we've been painstakingly digging up the bulbs to stop it spreading. Extreme weeding! www.plantlife.org.uk/uk/discover-wild-plants-nature/plant-fungi-species/three-cornered-garlic - #regrann

Secret spot in the woods, sun dripping through the trees, surrounded by wild garlic. Perfect for a picnic, and maybe a fairytale of the inhabitants of the wild woods

This Sunday, 5th May, we are hosting another 'meet the artist day', with @outoftheblue2u at the National Trust in Boscastle from 11 -3. They will meeting everyone and chatting about all things sea-glass and beach cleaning. They're going to bring along some of the rarer pieces in their collection and you can have a go at making a small sea-glass picture from a single piece to take home. They will also display some of the designs they have been working on. No charge and all ages are welcome. Look forward to seeing everyone and don’t forget to grab THE best flat white in Cornwall while you’re there 💙. Please feel free to share.

A bit too cloudy for @northcornwallrangerjen to show the woods at their best yesterday, but the bluebells and wild garlic still looked lovely! #boscastle #bluebellwalks #valencyvalley #nationaltrust #northcornwall #woodlands - #regrann

National Insect Week

June 22, 2010clethkernow

Insects are great!

It’s National Insect Week this week 21 – 27 June.

What’s your favourite?

Pearl Bordered Fritillary for me – delicate, pretty and if it’s flying it means a sunny day.
