Episode 3 - Earth Day Seasonal Sensations Podcast

    • Nature

In this special extended episode in honour of Earth Day, we talk to Rachel DeSumma from Victoria, Australia. Rachel is a Nature and Forest Therapy Guide in the Dandenong Ranges and shares with us some Seasonal Observations from down under! There is bird mimicry and fungi that look like olives, so prepared to be amazed! 

Take 5 minutes to feel your connection to our Earth with the Mindful Moment.

Our Noticing Nature activity this time is to join in with Earth Day activities on Tuesday 22nd April. This could be something you do yourself, like plant some flowers for bees in your garden or flower box, build a bug hotel or go on a litter pick. If you need some inspiration, visit Event Map — Digital Earth Day (arcgis.com) to find organised events around the world.

Let us know what you have noticed, and also if you know the reason that red foxes bark at night around this time of year in the UK.
