I totally agree.
Britain is small in comparison to many nations but it does indeed have so many varied landscapes supporting a wide diversity of wildlife. Whilst we hear a lot about habitat destruction, there is a huge amount of positive conservation work going on to protect or reinstate our natural habitats.
I fail to see the attraction in flying to the Med each year to sit in the sun for 2 weeks doing nothing. It is some years since I had a foreign holiday but even then the beach was not for me. I was always out wildlife watching or enjoying the scenery, history and culture of a foreign country.
On a grey and drizzly January morning in Essex, I am looking forward to my trips to Norfolk, the Yorkshire Dales, Wales, the Scottish Highlands, etc. again this year .... wonderful Britain indeed!
