Daily Nature Log. 18th October 2026

Holly berries

  Wild Walk 🥾    
   When I began my walk today, the temperature in the wind (the “feels like” temperature) was 10°C. The actual recorded air temperature was 13°C, but strong, gusty 25 mph winds blowing from the west made it feel significantly colder.
   A sparrow flashed into a nearby hedge adjacent to the recreation ground. A pair of magpies were hopping around exploring the grassy area under the pine trees.
   I began to walk around the outskirts of the recreation ground, where a wood pigeon and a corvid were feeding on the grass.
   I photographed a magnificent holly bush in the cemetery covered in beautiful scarlet berries.
   A tiny sparrow zoomed into the hedgerow, and a wood pigeon was settled on a nearby ledge.
    I began walking along Cemetery Road, where a tiny wren flew swiftly across the road.
   Passing the leisure centre, I spotted 10 feral pigeons lined up along the edge of the rooftop.
   Three jackdaws flew up in alarm from the green area under the pine trees towards a nearby rooftop.
