Hiya, as I was growing up I was often to be found in the hilly farming regions on the med-west coast of Wales visiting close family that I had there. Despite growing up in Birmingham I also felt happier and more at home in the wilder places and loved seeing all the wildlife; birds, plants, bugs and much more.
Still when I visit my family, one of my favourite things to is to get up early and drink my coffee of the back door step and just listen.
In now live in south Wales which isn't quite the same but I do finally have a garden of my own and am really looking forward to encouraging some bird life in.
I too feel lucky to known and experienced parts of Wales that are truly beautiful in abundance if life.
