the happy environmentalist

Another cuppa in a very different place, but the wild world still delights me with a view of a fox being scolded by magpies.

Busy ants, watching them is like watching the tip of an iceberg, most of their activity is underground.

In the Alentejo I've watched them collect up eggshell pieces and popcorn, but mostly they create their clearings in the meadow flowers, moving swiftly to collect grass seeds to take underground.

Morning rituals and nighttime visitors that are only seen on camera trap, this is an introduction to my 26 years in Alentejo's cork country and all the wildlife that I share this with.
