Natural Sights to Look Forward to in the Winter

As winter approaches, nature starts to change and there are many new things to see and discover in the natural world. Wrapping up cosy and warm in clothing like these practical fisherman sweaters for men https://www.shamrockgift.com/aran-sweaters/mens-aran-sweaters/ as well as comfortable shoes and of course warm socks, gloves and hats, you can get out into the wintery wilderness and get to know more about what is going on in the natural world at the moment…

Stargazing – The winter is by far the best time of the year to stargaze, as we get long hours of the night at this time of the year. Head to the countryside to truly appreciate the beauty of the night sky. There are dark sky reserves all around the UK which are particularly good places to go and spot some stars and planets.

Spotting Nocturnal Animals – The benefit of the longer hours of darkness is also the chance to spot animals who tend to come out after the sun goes down. Look (and listen!) for owls in woodlands, and also see if you can spot foxes, badgers and if you are near a body of water the very elusive native otters.

Stunning Views – Winter brings with it some of the most striking and beautiful views. From sunsets that light up the horizon to forests covered in sparkling frost, resembling Narnia. Now is a good time to get out and see the beauty in the natural world.
