If you can spare 10 minutes, why not celebrate #beesneedsweek counting bees, butterflies and other pollinators in the garden or local park?

Head to @bumblebeeconservationtrust for a handy link to get you started, as well as tips on how to help these vital little workers.

Here are some of the ArdMoor team's favourite shots of #pollinators in action to get you inspired!

Sam Barber of @sams_gundog_journey has kindly written a guest post for us about his journey into field sports.

There's still an enduring myth that the shooting world is only open to those from certain backgrounds or who know the right people.

This is something we're very keen to dispel, and Sam's story perfectly highlights the one real entry requirement: a love for the Great Outdoors.

Having no history in shooting, and with the added challenge of cerebral palsy to overcome, Sam found himself inspired to start working with his Springer Spaniel to pick-up on shoots.

Of all the ways we've seen our boxes recycled, this must be the best yet!

Thank you to George, who took this video while moving a huge swarm of bees into a temporary new home.

This tiny roe deer fawn was hidden just off the path in the woods we've been planting near our office.

If you're walking in an area with roe deer, please keep dogs under close control as their noses will find a fawn long before your eyes can.
If you do happen across one, keep your dogs away and leave them be. Roe deer often give birth to twins and hide them separately - if you've come across one there's a good chance another is nearby, so please be extra careful.

Many well-meaning citizens place calls to vets, the SSPCA, the British Deer Society & others about abandoned fawns at this time of year, but they're quite happy as they are. You may not be able to see her, but the mum will be foraging nearby while her baby remains hidden.

We were lucky enough to see mother & baby back together the following afternoon.

The brand new Monsoon ladies' smocks from @ridgeline_clothing have arrived!

Here's a quick review from ArdMoor's very own Jo who, as seen above, put the new Monsoon very thoroughly through its paces on a full week's stalking in Sutherland back in January:

Lightweight and totally waterproof & breathable, I loved it! The hood was perfect, with its stiffened peak keeping the driving sleet and wind at bay.
I was able to cover up totally and stayed warm and dry in some pretty severe conditions, including crawling through peat hags, burns and sphagnum moss.
