Did You Know?

Summer’s warmth brings a burst of life to British wildlife. Plants grow rapidly, producing flowers and fruits to attract animals. Bees and butterflies pollinate flowers, while birds and mammals raise their young, feeding on the abundance of food available. Long days give animals extra time to hunt and explore. For nature, summer is a time to achieve growth and prepare for future seasons.
