356 Days Wild: Week 39
Welcome to Week 39 of my wild challenge! By my calculation, because I’m working towards 356 days of wildness and not 365 (because I only decided part way through January I was going to do this – see my note at the bottom of the page…), I’ll get up to Week 50.8 by the endContinue reading “356 Days Wild: Week 39”
356 Days Wild: Week 38
And so comes October. Another seven ‘random acts of wildness’ ticked off. We’re well and truly catapulting towards shorter days. But that doesn’t mean you can’t have some wild highlights and, for Week 38, mine included: 🌹 Planting spring bulbs🐦 Watching some interesting gulls🌳 Recapping my new-found plant knowledge🍂 Walking through Wychwood Forest As always,Continue reading “356 Days Wild: Week 38”
356 Days Wild: Week 37
What a lovely ‘summer part 2’ we’ve been having! So many crisp, sunny days despite the days getting shorter. Towards the end of Week 37 of my wildlife challenge, I had the opportunity to experience a few ‘acts of wildness’ with my sister. Definitely the main highlight! And there were other highlights too, including:☀️ AContinue reading “356 Days Wild: Week 37”
356 Days Wild: Week 36
I worked out last week that I’ve now done over 245 days-worth of ‘random acts of wildness’. Looking back, I’m really glad I documented them all and I can see that it’s done me a world of good over the past 36 weeks. I hope I can keep it up despite the faster pace ofContinue reading “356 Days Wild: Week 36”
356 Days Wild: Week 29
Week 29 was dominated by lots of practice walks for my August fundraising challenge in memory of my grandad. Walking always brings wildlife highlights and, this week, my ‘acts of wildness’ included:🌺 Admiring the beautiful hollyhocks dotted across town🌧 Walking in the rain🐓 Finishing some Yorkshire Dales chickens🐌 Rescuing a little snail I hope youContinue reading “356 Days Wild: Week 29”
356 Days Wild: Week 28
Week 28 felt very busy and there were some lovely, wild highlights. Everything really does look and feel so much better in the sunshine! Let me give you a lil flavour of what I got up to – this week, I:🦆 Explored a local nature reserve at sunset✒️ Plotted out some local walks to prepContinue reading “356 Days Wild: Week 28”
356 Days Wild: Week 27
The end of this week couldn’t have been more different from the start. I got a good soaking on Monday but, by Sunday, was craving the shade. No wonder us Brits talk about the weather so much! Anyway, Week 27 of my wild adventure brought me:🌧 A wet walk by the River Thames🌺 A newContinue reading “356 Days Wild: Week 27”
356 Days Wild: Week 25
And so comes the end of another ’30 Days Wild’. Crazy to think my first introduction to ‘daily acts of wildness’ was officially over a whole year ago! I’m also just about halfway through my wild challenge for 2021. For anyone who missed the very first post about my wild undertakings, I managed to decideContinue reading “356 Days Wild: Week 25”
356 Days Wild: Week 24
And so ends the last full week of this year’s ’30 Days Wild’! It’s been so nice to take part in this challenge again and, I have to say, it’s also very reassuring to know that my wild challenge won’t come to an end on July 1st! I’m gonna keep on goin’! Let’s get straightContinue reading “356 Days Wild: Week 24”
