Country diary: A young shieldbug has found a safe place to hide â or so it hopes | Nic Wilson (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Bedmond, Hertfordshire: The entire Serge Hill project is a haven for humans and wildlife, and thereâs much to find in its collection of drought-tolerant plants Looking across a swathe of golden oat grass to the Apple House, it seems almost inconceivable that the M25 and M1 motorways are just beyond the treeline.

Looking across a swathe of golden oat grass to the Apple House, it seems almost inconceivable that the M25 and M1 motorways are just beyond the treeline.
