Same rules as normal- let's share our learning as we connect with each other AND nature. Really carefully look in your garden and street and capture photos and drawing of plants and nature......maybe even your sweet peas if still alive, or maybe your acorns are just starting to come up? Go and have a look.....

We saw this moth as we were setting out on an evening walk. We think it has chosen our white veranda post as camouflage because it is silvery white.

Isabella Isai. Soon these trees will have no leaves at all, they are called deciduous trees, which means they loose their leaves in autumn 🍂 and grow new leaves in summer. I will post a new picture when they have lost all their leaves.

Spot things in common?
