Send us a text

As we say farewell to September… Tom Pattinson’s reflecting on a patchy but canny spring summer of flowers and crops… and the joys of soft and top fruits… and growing tetties for Christmas!

Tom Cadwallender’s full of good news about the breeding season… and he’s following migrations and keeping tabs on crossbills…

And we’ll be looking at the results of this year’s Big Butterfly Count, Dr Zoe Randle from Butterfly Conservation is here to tell us more…

And we’ve got some top tips for the garden from Tom P…
