June 30,June 30, by Liann

I’ve finished my 30 Days Wild journey on literally the other side of the world from where I started – in Queensland, Australia. I’m finding hard to string two words together corhently through a combination of exhaustion and jetlag, But I can’t help but smile when thinking back over the last month.  This is my … Read more30 Days Wild – Day 30 – Wild Reflections

30 Days Wild – Day 29 – Wild about Changi Airport

June 29, by Liann

The next leg of our journey on Day 29 of 30 Days Wild saw us transiting through Changing Airport in Singapore. After a 12 hour flight it was certainly a relief to get of the plane to stretch our legs and seek out some wildness at the airport. First stop was the Cactis Garden in … Read more30 Days Wild – Day 29 – Wild about Changi Airport

30 Days Wild – Day 28 – Wild on a Plane

June 28,June 28, by Liann

Today we are on the first leg of a long journey. So our opportunities for Random Acts of Wildness are all in-flight. I began reading ‘H is for Hawk’ by Helen Macdonald, and was engrossed straight away. One section I thought was particularly relevant to 30 Days Wild was when the author wrote about the … Read more30 Days Wild – Day 28 – Wild on a Plane

30 Days Wild – Day 27 – Snail’s Pace

Snail's pace

As we rushed out of the door into the rain this morning Finlay and I encountered two snails making their way across our front path. I had to stop and watch them. One was the smallest snail I’d ever seen, so I had to take a photo of course. And now apparently I am the … Read more30 Days Wild – Day 27 – Snail’s Pace

30 Days Wild – Day 26 – Tackling Plastic Waste

June 26,June 26, by Liann
Plastic Free July - Choose to Refuse

Prompted by several posts on the 30 Days Wild Facebook group about the amount of plastic waste that is littering our beaches and polluting our oceans and waterways I’ve been thinking about what I can do to help. As the Marine Conservation Society explains, beach litter is at the highest levels since records began. Turtles … Read more30 Days Wild – Day 26 – Tackling Plastic Waste

30 Days Wild – Day 25 – Looking Up & Looking Down

June 25, by Liann
Tree branches

Walking back from the shops today Finlay and I decided to count how many different types of birds we could spot. Making our way along a fairly busy road, we initially saw jackdaws and gulls (black headed, lesser black-backed and herring gulls). But looking up, my attention was caught by something else. The dappled light … Read more30 Days Wild – Day 25 – Looking Up & Looking Down

30 Days Wild – Day 24 – High Tide

High tide

After exploring our local rocky shore on Day 14 of 30 Days Wild, I enjoyed being able to observe the same spot again at high tide. I took the time to sit, watch and listen. To the sight and sounds of the waves as they undulated then crashed upon the stairs that lead down to … Read more30 Days Wild – Day 24 – High Tide

Clouds by the sea

On the last day of May, I looked up into a beautiful sky and took some photos of the clouds. I posted them on the 30 Days Wild Facebook page and commented that I’d love to learn more about clouds during June. The group gave me some great advice about an app from the Cloud … Read more30 Days Wild – Day 23 – Clouds by the Sea

headphones, phone & coffee

In my post for Day 13 of 30 Days Wild, I mentioned how I love books. I’ve loved books for as long as I can remember, and always will. I have, however, discovered a new love over the last few years – podcasts. I subscribe to a number of podcasts on a wide range of topics. … Read more30 Days Wild – Day 22 – Wild Podcasts

30 Days Wild – Day 21 – Friends & Foxes

June 21, by Liann
Paper foxes friends

Finlay had some friends over after school today. Rain was forecast, so I thought it would be fun to attempt some baking and craft Random Acts of Wildness. We got off to a great start as the children came out of school wearing fox masks they had made that day. So cute 🙂 Back at home they … Read more30 Days Wild – Day 21 – Friends & Foxes
