This wolf and bear pair were documented travelling, hunting and sharing food together for 10 days.

I wrote this article 'The consciousness of garbage' in 1985 & it's been republished on the Celebrating One Incredible Family website. Sadly, it's just as relevant today as 39 years ago, as very little has changed with regard to how we deal with our waste.

I photographed this tiny springtail (Protaphorura sp.) on the underside of a piece of dead wood in Glen Affric. It belongs to a group of springtails which even experts find difficult to identify to species level. In my view, they are some of the cutest of the springtails!

It's less than 3 weeks now until our workshop 'A Rewilding Journey' takes place in Glen Affric, from 11-18 May & we still have some last places available on it. We especially invite women, to create a better gender balance, & can offer subsidised places.
