Get closer to the field and a little more behind the scenes by reading about the wild experiences, wildlife insights and recollections of staff and volunteers – writers from all over the organisation, from our Reserve Officers to our student placements.
We welcome guest bloggers! If you have something to write home about - whether you've got a trail cam in your garden, or you've been bird watching, or visited one of our nature reserves - if it's to do with Cumbria's wildlife and wild places then we'd love to hear from you!
The highlight of June was a fantastic week in Northern Ireland with our marine trainees, meeting Ulster Wildlife’s Nature Skills trainees and rekindling my interest in our seas.
On the 30th June we got a close up view of the #FoulshawOspreys chicks as they were ringed.
We enjoyed a brilliant creative writing day at Eycott Hill back in May. The sun was shining, sky larks singing, and inspiration found at every turn.
Our next blog about #FoulshawOspreys is brought to you by Grace who is on a student placement with Cumbria Wildlife Trust and helping out Reserve Officer Simon Thomas to bring you the latest story…
Threlkeld Brownies and Rainbows enjoyed a lovely sunny afternoon at their local nature reserve Eycott Hill on Monday.
I have been on several trips away during April and May – hence the lack of blog posts – as well as finishing off some big pieces of work. A thoroughly enjoyable couple of months!
All the latest news from the #FoulshawOspreys. 3 chicks are born, 1 chick sadly dies, and a new pair of ospreys try to take over the nest for themselves.

So, my placement has come to an end but it has been the best nine months of my life. Where do I begin? I’ve had an amazing opportunity to learn so many new skills and meet so many new people…
