Exploring Somerset
Crafts

There are so many amazing artists and crafts people here in the county, many of them featured here and on Be Somerset too.

Twenty-two of them display

their work at Somerset Crafts at the Avalon Marshes Centre,

and it's full of all kinds of treasure! Check out the blog very soon for a little Somerset cool visit.

           In search of
         Starlings

 

For the past 9 years, I've regularly visited Ham Wall Nature Reserve and the surrounding areas, to see the starling murmurations. Like many people, I'm a little bit obsessed! Have a read of the blog to discover more, and also listen to my adventure with nature photographer Carl Bovis as we saw hundreds of thousands of our feathered friends put on quite a display!
