Thanks Maria! That’s great to hear. I hope you’ve seen plenty of wild bees in those 8 years

😂 bee puns are hard to resist!

Thanks so much! It’s a real passion project

@@TheRewildlife Seeme like it! Great to see some content specifically on Ireland

Will do my best! Thanks for watching

I don't think it is wilful ignorance by any means, I just think it's used so much as a greenwashing tool that it seems to be at the forefront of people's minds.

Thanks Dominic! Glad you enjoyed it

Thanks Darren! Yes lots of lovely facts in this one I think

spot on. let the clover grow in the grass it takes no mowing and the bees love it, it also looks nice, we have to get away from this need for a perfect green lawn that is so out of date now thats for sure.

Thanks so much! Il do my very best

Thanks so much!

So great to hear these stories. Well done!

That could have been a male Common newt.

Thanks great advice!

Thank you! It’s all down to the right substrate at the bottom of your pond, and the right plant life in there. I hope to get pond videos created soon, but I get much of my information from this great channel kzbin.info/www/bejne/onzVm4Csa7mAorcsi=SYKqVIW-1DwyuBkd

I do actually understand a lot of this but I feel it leads people astray not knowing the full story. I grow food and I also rewild but I try to do it in a responsible way. If everyone did what this couple are doing we’d be back to 3000bc and there would be no economy. With most of our population living in cities we need economic food production and wetting good land is not how to do it. There is plenty of poor land where this can be done and I do feel that rewilding if it is ever to catch on will have to be done in a responsible manner. Starting with hedgerows, allowing grass to grow along the sides of roads where it’s safe to do so, edges of woodlands and managed tree planting. Everything works better in our scenario if trees are planted in groups to provide canopy, shelter, nutrition for the ground and the flora and fauna that than exist there. Blanket woodland, especially monoculture is not good and if we are to survive as a nation we have to feed and employ our people. I have studied lots of these channels and the one thing everyone on them has in common is they make their living for the most part teaching courses, doing workshops and KZbin advertising. That as a lifestyle for the vast majority is unsustainable.

Love it!

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed

Great point! I have a video planned about that very subject. Hopefully il have it ready soon

Wow well done! The bureaucracy issue is certainly a common one in Ireland. Hopefully it will improve over time. Thankfully nature can do a lot of the work itself too.

Ah wonderful! My grandparents lived there but I don’t recall seeing the lizards there. Maybe I was too young to notice

That’s fantastic what you’ve done. Love to hear you’ve created 2 ponds 🐸

Sheep and trees and co-exist no problem and with no negative impact on grass growth, but you need to grow the trees in a separate nursery section and then only plant them out in their final location on the farm once they are tall enough, 100mm drainage pipe makes a good cheap tree guard, and you need a good 5 foot split post. Oaks/crab apple/plums/holly/white thorn on the good land and alder on the wet spots

Thanks for the feedback! Il look into it
