Start a Nature Blog!
When you're outside for your daily exercise, look for interesting objects to photograph and start a collection. You can post your photos on a blog using Blogger.com, or keep a file on your phone or computer, or print the pictures out and put them in a book or on a noticeboard. Look for amazing skies and sunsets, patterns in the snow or frost, new plants coming through, the first insects, hungry birds. See how many different species you can spot before the end of lockdown!
Here is my nature blog: http://staggsbrook.blogspot.com/
...and here are some of my favourite photos from 2020.
