Springwatch starts here

Blogging can be a great way of documenting seasonal changes in the natural world.

Spring is a good time to start a nature blog, recording activities such as:

• the blooming of spring flora
• breeding behaviour in amphibians
• the arrival of migrant warblers
• bird song and nesting building
• the emergence of butterflies and other insects

Don't forget that you can also submit your observations to Nature's Calendar.

Send us a link to one of your springwatch posts and we'll publish it here.
