Country diary: Foxes are seeking mates. And the evidence is everywhere | Nicola Chester
Newbury, Berkshire: From tracks in the snow to musky scent markings to vixens screaming in the night, it is hard to ignore fox mating season
A #FoxoftheDay in words! Town fox-country fox: hard to ignore right now, foxes pique the senses as they go a 'woo-oo-ooing'; musky notes of singed fur, sandalwood, spice & hawthorn flowers abound, though I keep quiet on the delicate matter of their whereabouts...

Country diary: Gadding about on the river | Nic Wilson
Hitchin, Hertfordshire: Is it a mallard, is it a gadwall? It appears that one of this fine, loved-up pair of ducks is a bit of both
In my @theguardian.com country diary today, I come across a most unexpected bird on the local chalk stream & wonder if spring will bring a flotilla of Brewer's Ducklings. #countrydiary #naturewriting

Country diary: The last leaves are giving way to the first catkins | Phil Gates
Wolsingham, Weardale: The day is fading fast and last night’s frost is still in the air. A stretch of hazel hedge provides a brief reminder that we don’t just live one season at a time
Today's Guardian country diary by Phil Gates is all about a holloway hedge in Weardale. I love our winter task of laying the hazel beside my local holloway with the rest of the Wildlife Trust volunteers. On a sunny February afternoon, there's nowhere I'd rather be. #naturewriting
