Nature notes: join our daily lockdown Nature challenges on the Friends of Railway Fields FB page

Railway Fields is closed to the public but Nature is everywhere so everyday we're trying to come up with daily suggestions for the young and young at heart to study or get closer to Nature in gardens or on daily exercise walks or even going on online field trips to visit osprey nests in Scotland or bat boxes in Essex.

So far we've looked at the Supermoon, thought about the many colours of Nature, focused on minibeasts by trying to spot spring bees, stallking super spiders, getting down in the dirt with slugs and snails and going butterfly hunting. 

This week we're focusing on the pavement plants in our streets like dandelions and our beautiful street trees.
