A Bird a Day: Jackdaw
Short snippet of my book, pre-editing, about jackdaws. They’re one of my favourite corvids, and we have so many around our homes they’ve even nested in our roof before! Jackdaws are relatively small; one of the smallest UK corvids, similar in size to the… Continue Reading “A Bird a Day: Jackdaw”

#MondayBlogs – Starting Over
These little rebirths, these new beginnings, they happen all the time. You can start over as many times as you like. For example, each week I start over committing to a better sleep schedule. I’m rubbish at it, but I keep going, keep trying, keep starting over. I also start over with how I organise my work or my research. Coming at things from a new perspective keeps it fresh and keeps me interested, but it also improves me. I learn how to work faster, or smarter, or relate to a topic better than I did before. I get more comfortable speaking out or setting boundaries where needed. I learn what actually matters to me in terms of self-care or fulfilment.
