From medieval torture to unexpected treasure, early summer is an exciting time on the nature reserve!
Temperatures are rising as spring turns to summer and bringing out orchids and common lizards, among many other species, at Whisby.
It's spring cleaning time for the wardens as the warmer weather brings a flurry of new arrivals to the nature reserve.
Enjoying the early signs of spring across the nature reserve, despite the continuing difficulties presented by the high rainfall.
More weather challenges, wrapping up winter work projects and preparing for spring and summer visitors.
Looking back on a month of dramatic weather and hardy work parties - and ahead to the first signs of spring!
