Angie Brew: I am stuck at home in Watford, England. Anyone want to follow my daily dawn walks? I will share videos of bird song, and images of trees. And drawings of trees and birds. 

Here is 1) dawn photo, Watford 2) An elm with a hole in the trunk 3) and 4) Hornbeam sapling. These are my favourite trees. You can identify them by the jerky angular way the branches grow. Their leaves, just budding now, are similar to Beech. Mature trees have distinctive bark, quite dark, smooth with diamond-like pattern. I will send an image tomorrow.   5) a short video of a Nuthatch singing. You can't see the Nuthatch, but you can learn its song. More birds coming soon!

TtD members and Directors will also be sharing drawings and images in our Facebook group.
