About me:
I'm a Natural Sciences graduate currently on the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust's Tomorrow's Natural Leaders programme. I'm enthusiastic about getting others interested in natural history in an era where much natural lore is being forgotten among the younger generations. Although I'm interested in pretty much any wildlife, my particular loves are bryophytes, vascular plants, lichens, plant galls, leaf-miners and leaf microfungi.
