We joined a Scooter Scoot a River Park today organised by Salisbury Shopmobility to share our knowledge about local wildlife. We talked about chalk rivers, fish and water voles. We heard Cetti's warblers, spotted dragonflies and took in the beautiful scenery. Friends of Salisbury Shopmobility

Spotted a hummingbird hawkmoth feeding on verbena in a garden. They have such a long proboscis! They flap their wings so fast they hum. They are a day-flying moth that migrates to the UK from southern Europe.

We had a lovely 'Meet the Trees' event in Bourne Hill yesterday. After polishing off pear and ginger cake and banana flapjacks, we had a go at the Japanese art of hapazome (leaf bashing!). Then we went on a guided tree walk to learn about tree ecology, folklore and medicinal uses.

- a meal and a nature walk
- indoor nature craft
- nature based meditation session
- a family friendly event
- do you have any other ideas?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts!

ROWAN
The berries of the rowan tree are something to behold at this time of year. They are a rich source of food for blackbird, mistle thrush, redwing, song thrush and waxwing.

Rowan trees are also known as mountain ash, because they grow well at high altitudes, but they are not related to ash trees.

Rowan were once widely planted by houses as a protection against witches. The colour red of the berries was considered the best for fighting evil.

You can find out more about trees in our 'Meet the trees' event on Sun 27th Sept.
