This is for Max, a Spider Ambassador, which we should all be really. Maybe once you've heard this fascinating House Spider, you may want to become one, it certainly changed my view of them.

Plants have a message too and as it's Spring, I thought it would be a good time to give the dandelion a voice.
A favourite of the Ashy Mining Bee.

Messages from the Wild podcast has been hibernating (for good reason) but as spring has arrived in Europe now is the time to hear from the Ashy Mining Bee who will be out and about pollinating and building her nest in the ground in relative peace and quiet.

The Earthworm leads the way in a series of interviews with small animals about their life and the environment they live in.
One short interview with a different animal will be published each day for the next 24 days.
Please let me know what you think of them and if there are any animals you would particularly like to hear from in the future. Thank you. annabel@annabelross.com
