.. that's, Can wildlife and modern farming co-exits?  Peter Thompson gave the answer as a resounding 'yes' - given the four Ps - Payments, People, Planning and Passion.  And it's happening right here on our doorstep, with farming 'clusters' which are turning away from 
ploughing on bare earth to a range of conservations measures that not only benefit farmers with increased yields, but are massively beneficial to wildlife.  

Meanwhile, try the earthworm challenge that Peter issued: take a shovel-full of soil from your own garden and see how many earthworms there are in it.  If you've got 16, you're Doing Your Bit!

    If it's not me, Elizabeth Forbes, website editor (keen but ignorant), I'll say so.

    Every photograph is captioned where necessary: in the 'galleries' please click once both to open and to view this, and including the photographer unless it's one of mine. You can scroll through all the photos in a 'gallery', too. Those including 'BC' are with kind permission of Butterfly-conservation.org.
