Since moving to Plymouth three years ago I have appreciated the beautiful countryside surrounding this city. I have recorded most of the places I have visited in my blog Life in Plymouth,
http://exploringplymouthsurroundings.blogspot.co.uk/. Generally I don't travel more than an hour from home, but I have come to realise I don't have to go even this far to find green spaces. I was surprised to learn from the Plymouth Council website that a third of Plymouth is green spaces. They list all the parks, county wildlife sites, local nature reserves, sites of special scientific interest and other green spaces. I decided to explore all these special places during 2014.
The nearest park to my home is Central Park, which is the largest park in Plymouth. In 2013 I documented the wildlife there through the year in my blog Central Park Plymouth,
