Just up the road from me we have Lincolnshire Nature Reserve, a small magical place. Reclaimed gravel pits with hides & an interesting assortment of wildlife, including a rather shy elephant that I noticed.
1. this is an African elephant tree.
2.this is our very own Lincolnshire elephant tree.
3. she’s a touch shy.
