The Cirl Bunting is singing its way back into Cornwall’s story.

In August, Cornwall’s damp meadows and heaths glow with the purple blooms of Devil’s-bit scabious.
It’s a late-season nectar lifeline for pollinators and the sole larval food plant for the rare marsh fritillary butterfly, whose larvae feed on its leaves throughout autumn and winter.

Not the most flattering angle, but definitely one of the rarest we’ve filmed in Cornwall.
Seen skulking through the undergrowth at Trelusback Foundation… can you guess the bird?

Yesterday we visited Woodland Valley Farm with some of our business members to see the incredible beaver habitat there.
Beavers create wetlands, boost biodiversity, clean water, and reduce flood risk — all by doing what comes naturally.

Our camera trap just met its match: a camera-shy woodcock.
A few steps into frame, a glance at the lens, and it was gone.

The Cornish chough vanished in 1973.
Gone from the cliffs. Gone from the skies.
Then in 2001 – 3 returned.
Now in 2025? 300+ wild choughs call Cornwall home again.
A local legend reborn. A real-world comeback. 🐦🔥

Just donated to this one to get them off the unlucky 13 donor’s number. Looks like a good cause, and love that my donation gets doubled!
Normally I support things I like by reposting on Bluesky, but occasionally I’ll drop in some money. Joining a regional wildlife trust is the best thing!
