An unusual encounter on Friday with this little chap who kept coming into my office to show me the various worms 🐛 🐜🐛 & Bugs he had caught. Every time I took him out he would come back with something else in his mouth. #bird #wildlife #nature #chewtonglen

What can you buy for £2 these days? 🤔 Chocolate, coffee, ice cream - my top picks for a quick happiness fix! 🍫☕️🍦 Or a packet of poppy seeds that bloom into beautiful flowers year after year? 🌸🌸🌸
