Discovering The Mount: How Daily Dog Walks Turned into a Passion for Conservation
Living near The Mount for years, I only discovered its magic during lockdown and later through daily dog walks. Joining the volunteer group opened my eyes to rare orchids, butterflies, wildlife tracks and tiny plants I’d never noticed before. From spotting Small Blues to helping clear scrub, getting involved has made this familiar hillside feel extraordinary - a place full of life, waiting to be seen.
