With a bit of luck\, we may also spot barn owls that regularly hunt over the fields. \nAfter the walk\, we’ll return to the farmhouse for a cooked breakfast made with locally sourced ingredients\, including eggs from our rescue hens. We’ll eat together around the table\, with time to ask Rob questions and chat more broadly about birds\, farming\, and the wider landscape. \nThe morning will wrap up at 10:30\, leaving you well fed\, well informed and hopefully feeling a little more connected to the land around you. \nThis is one of two Morning Chorus Bird Walks. 10th April and 24th April \nCost: £28 per person \nA thoughtful\, unhurried way to start the day\, for anyone curious about birds\, ecology\, and the rhythms of a working farm. \nAnd why not extend your experience by spending the night in one of our Shepherd’s Huts?

SUMMARY:Window Wanderland
DESCRIPTION:Frome Window Wanderlands have been a beloved annual event since 2018. It’s a wonderful opportunity to unleash your creativity\, engage with your community\, and celebrate the fun and artistry that Frome has to offer. Together\, we can turn the streets into a delightful outdoor gallery for everyone to enjoy! \nThis year we’re teaming up with the lovely folk at The Good Heart and running Frome Window Wanderland in conjunction with Frome Kindness Festival. That’s 8 full nights available for wandering. Teaming up with The Kindness Festival also fits nicely with the overall theme for Window Wanderlands throughout the country this year: ‘Hope’. You don’t have to use this theme for your window\, but if it sparks something for you do run with it. \nTaking part as a Windowmaker is FREE\, and everyone’s welcome. You can make a display in the windows of your flat\, house\, business\, school\, nursery\, car\, campervan\, shop – or your front garden! \nDon’t worry\, there’s no need to feel overwhelmed. Your setup can be as easy as placing a candle\, a book\, or some fairy lights in your window. Alternatively\, you could really get creative and put on a show in your living room! The possibilities are endless\, as long as it’s family friendly. \nFeeling inspired but not sure where to start?  Join one of our FREE workshops where we will show you some of the techniques you can use to create a window\, provide materials and help you get your window creation underway.  You can book into the workshops here: www.tickettailor.com/events/fromewindowwanderland  \nFurther workshops TBC\, please keep an eye on Frome Window Wanderland’s social media to be kept in the loop.

SUMMARY:Wet\, Wet\, Wet: Beaver and Human Wetlands of Heal Somerset
DESCRIPTION:Discover how humans and beavers are joining forces to restore vibrant wetland ecosystems at Heal Somerset. On this guided walk and talk with rewilding ranger Daniel Hill\, you will experience first-hand these developing wetlands and learn how dams\, ponds\, scrapes and more can shape water movement\, biodiversity\, and habitat recovery. Together you will explore how beaver activity and human intervention can complement each other to create healthier habitats\, cleaner water\, and climate-resilient ecosystems. \nAbout Daniel Hill \nAs the Rewilding Ranger at Heal Somerset\, Dan manages the site’s monitoring and land management programs. You can find him surveying for signs of beavers\, co-ordinating volunteer work parties\, or working with partners to deliver the hydrological restoration plan\, amongst a huge variety of other tasks. Dan’s passion for nature was sparked as a child growing up on an organic small holding in rural south Wales watching red kites soar above. His love of rewilding developed through volunteering with the RSPB on the Somerset Levels after completing a degree in Mathematical Sciences.
