Song Thrush singing in East Finchley

Bug Woman is a sixty-something nature nerd living in East Finchley in North London. She is obsessed with her local flora and fauna, and is committed to making her garden as wildlife-friendly as possible. She is a Londoner by birth and by instinct, but is also interested in the wider world. She promises to post every day, and to respond to any comments that you are kind enough to make. She believes that a community is not just about people, but is also about the other living things that we share the environment with. Blogging for ten years has also proved that a community can be built not by geographical proximity, but by a shared love of, and concern for, the natural world.
