The Darwin Scholars Programme was held in U.K this year by Field studies council. People working in Field biology,
ecology, communication, forests and nature or anything interesting they all came together to explore
more methods of knowing the forest and environment better in the future.
Along with the Shropshire wildlife society, we collected insects from around the neighbourhood.
The Darwin family planted so many trees in the garden of Shrewsbury house, a collection of flora from all over the world.
This is the highest mountain in Wales, England. There is common believe for this to be called the

geological facts around the park.

Badger and Otters are commonly found in smaller streams and river alongside of the less vegetation.
Badgers live in this habitat, they are social animals.
