I’m seeing a bunch of artists sharing their progress over the years and it’s super inspiring. I’m not an artist, I was always terrible at art growing up, but in the summer of 2021 I decided to teach myself to draw.

WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN WINTER: 1.) Hedgelaying, not flailing. 2.) Grey Partridges, red listed, rarely seen now. Ivy berries left for birds. 3.) Flocks of finches: Yellowhammer, Chaffinch, Greenfinch, Brambling. A working horse. Hay, not silage. 4.) Uncut Bramble, Dock seeds.
