I was hoping for now a few more posts on what everyone was getting up to this month. For myself I found myself in Cardiff today with work. In the evening I took myself off to Cap'n Badgers world of Bute Park and what a place it turned out to be. The first thing I found when I entered the...

It has been a busy day today with all the chores of most Sundays so the wildest we got today was the back garden to do the 30 day challenge. A couple of years ago the kids each helped me build their father and son bows. These quick bows are made from Hazel and shoot just as well as the day...

What a cracking day it has been. I had no problem getting out and about for the thirty day challenge as it was such a lovely day. We popped out to Clift Meadow here in Bramley for the 'Big Lunch' - my wife Alison had organised an excellent picnic for us. This is a one-day get together for...

This thirty day challenge is proving a bit of a challenge all right. Not for the activities but for just sorting the pictures. The kids are having a ball though. Tonight I needed to finish building a Gibbet crane and I needed a fire to test the crane out. So instead of cracking on with it...

Thanks for that Joonsy. If I get sent back up I will look to visit the reserve. That looks like a great walk Tony especially that you got access into the tunnel. I got back home from my trip and explained the challenge to my kids. Their thought was a bit of pond dipping. The water level is...

Here we go - my bit of wildness for tonight was to just get out this evening from my rather corporate hotel and see what nature I could find in this urban environment (Stourbridge near Birmingham) and then record with my phone - not very wild granted but this did get me out for the evening...

I like the sound of this Tony. Up in Dudley doing some indoor training and staying in a Premier Inn. No kids with me so I will go for a bimble and kick of with a wild flower or two. I will look to get my kids involved when I get home. Cheers George

Cheers guys I will try and bring it to the moot. I have another two articles to post Tom that cover that style of replication with fire cranes. I am afraid I got my Zebra from the bring and buy sale at last years BCUK Bushmoot. Cheers George

What happens when you put a brash fire up against a tree - found this on an evening stroll in the countryside around Dundee.

A Winters Skeleton

A handy little book with plenty of info but does not take long to read. Urtification - a bit of an eye opener that one :-)

Just for fun - my kids den building bushcraft style

Winter light

A room with a view

No snow here StJon. I really like the second picture with the trees. Love the contrasts between the snow and the grass that is still visible. A couple from my family walk today. This little fella was not shy in the slightest And my first Primrose flower this year

Three beautiful pictures Harvestman, Brancho and Bowlander. All the beauty of winter days.

All I can say is you must have very.steady hands. When I have all the lens extensions on I need to be resting on something if I am not using a tripod.

Nice one. I was looking for this today but they are not appearing yet my way. This is a great bit of macro Harvestman. I have some lens extensions and a tripod so I will be trying to capture this (it will need to be a calm day) in the next couple of weeks. Spotted this on Hazel today.
