I had to visit Eindhoven Zoo for school to get to know the zoo in which we are going to help the animal care staff. This is for the beautiful study wildlife management which allows me to become a animal care taker or work with wild animals as a "fauna expert".
Fundraising Swimathon for WWF, and litter picking along the way
by fen_hen near East Cambridgeshire, England, United Kingdom — September 11, 2025 — Gave 17 Hours for Earth
In August I completed a month long swimathon in aid of WWF. The challenge was to swim 20km (12.5 miles), and raise £150, and I smashed both, swimming just over 26km (16 miles) and raising a massive £494, topping up my own donation with £1 for every 100 metres I did over 20km!
Went on a road trip with my boyfriend last week and while driving down a backroad, we came across these two Turkey vultures!! It was so cool to see them in person this close. Yesterday, I also found a Bluejay feather and came across this Hents orbweaver.
Here are some of the photos I captured this week. I also signed up to volunteer at a local park on the 20th for their native plant exchange. They also have an invasive species strike force I'm looking to help with.
Lesce bled is an environmentaly focused tourist spot on a beautiful lake. I honestly thought it was so cool the amount of fun information and signs they had about conservation of the lake and ecosystem. They even had things like water fountains instead of bottles and bikes for hire so theres no cars
Did some simple flowers for pollinators from this free campaign by WWF, and they have been pretty popular this summer, thankfully they even survived the move I just did.
