The Northern Nutcracker is known as "star crow" in Japan, which is thought to be a poetic interpretation of the its black plumage and white speckled body. This gave me the idea for a giant sparkly crow that soars through the sky, carrying people in a basket hung from its feet.
I recently met with key players in UK-Japan relationships and Japanese tourism to share Parks & Japan - a project to promote and support the 35 national parks ๐ฏ๐ต

Kushiro Marsh inspired the setting for Studio Ghibli's 'When Marnie Was There', as well as 'The Great Marsh' in Pokemon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. The latter also features a train inspired by the Norokko Train, a sightseeing service that travels through Kushiro Marsh.

๐ณ In episode 2 of Between the Trees, I'm sharing how Pocket Adventures is democratising nature exploration to make it fun and rewarding for everyone.
Sometimes nature can feel like an exclusive club, but you only need one thing to start exploring... https://t.co/KbF9W9svCY
From the sketchbook โจ A star-inspired character for the Parklander trading card game. As I pondered the ethereal beauty that's usually associated with the stars, I had a vision of starry liberty spikes ๐ค
