  6. Happy birthday, Richard Jefferies!

    We invited museum volunteers and special guests to a party to celebrate the 176th anniversary of Richard Jefferies' birth, and *also* launch a one-off publication, Our Nature (richardjefferies.org/our-natur). It features contributions by many different writers and photographers, many of whom were in attendance last night.

  10. A #misty #morning along Day House Lane last week.

    "Down there come again the ever-increasing clouds of sparrows; as a cloud rises here another cloud descends beyond it, a very mist and vapour as it were of wings."

  15. We're *really* looking forward to the exhibition opening this Sunday, 4th August. It's called Steam: The New Wonder, and we're so proud of our volunteer Liz, who has played the main role in curating this - her very first - exhibition!

    #history #heritage #steam #RichardJefferies

    We hope you'll join us for the preview at 12pm on Sunday, just before we open for Lazy Summer Sundays, where you can relax and enjoy cakes and cream teas, with #livemusic from The Ivy Green.

  20. "Time changes the places that knew us, and if we go back in after years, still even then it is not the old spot; the gate swings differently, new thatch has been put on the old gables, the road has been widened, and the sward the driven sheep lingered on is gone."

  22. The Richard Jefferies Wildlife Walk we have planned this year encourages all of us to get out and walk, to pay attention to what's around us, and to let us know what you see in terms of the nature around you.

  27. You can hardly tell them apart! #RichardJefferies #Sculpture

    The wonderful Steve Cox - of Mr. Love and Justice fame - spotted this beautiful marble bust of Richard Jefferies while visiting Harrogate, and it is now on long-term loan to us, where it's being looked after by our team and our own, more portable, Mr Jefferies.

  29. Our first #NatureKids of 2023 was held during a week of good weather, the children were amazing, the art was colourful - what more could we ask?!

    "Often in writing about these things I have felt very earnestly my own incompetence to give the least idea of their brilliancy and many-sided colours. My gamut was so very limited in its terms, and would not give a note to one in a thousand of those I saw."

  31. "Legion is a little word for the butterflies; the dry pastures among the
    woods are brown with meadow-brown; blues and coppers float in endless succession; all the nations of Xerxes' army were but a handful to these."

    Those were the words of Richard Jefferies in Field and Hedgerow – Hours of Spring.

  35. This quote, from Richard Jefferies' Field and Hedgerow, seems very apt: "There was everything to repel—the cold, the frost, the hardness, the snow, dark sky and ground, leaflessness; the very furze chilled and all benumbed. Yet the forest was still beautiful. There was no day that we did not, all of us, glance out at it and admire it, and say something about it."

  37. It was another cold and frosty week at Nature Tots - but we are starting to see signs of life in our gardens! We found some beautiful frosty patterns on our library windows, plus #snowdrops blooming and daffodils pushing their way into the sun!
