Yesterday I went to my Grandma's house and today I decided to spend the day with my mum at a place called Marbury Park near Northwich. There's a big lake surrounded with reeds and they also hav...

I was hanging around this morning waiting to go to Wales later, so I thought I would do a bit of doodling. Anyway, this is what I ended up with. I hope you like it.

Today I set of with my mum for a river walk. I made a BTO bird track list of all the birds we saw. We also decided we'd walk down for some fresh air and to do a 30DaysWild blog. Me and my mum...

On Friday we were all allowed outside at school to watch the solar eclipse.  I wanted to see it from the start, so I got to school early and set my camera up ready. I had a special filter on...

On Sunday I went to Cemlyn Bay on Anglesey and saw this lovely Lapland Bunting. It's the first time I have ever seen one. They are usually found more on the east coast so it was really nice surp...
