With the arrival of spring, the ground is thawing, flowers are blossoming, and nature is jumping back to life.
Take advantage of all this natural beauty by heading out onto the trail.
When waterfalls are at their cascading best, the changing light captures epic vistas and birds and animals are raising their young. The longer, warmer days mean there's no better time to explore the world on foot.
Britain has some of the most important seabird colonies in Europe.
Watching guillemots, razorbills, gannets, cormorants and fulmars
is one of Britain's top wildlife experiences. You don't just watch a seabird colony; you smell it and hear it too!
And who doesn't love a puffin?
Their gorgeous little faces, at once both comical and melancholy and we may be lucky and get a glimpse of a chick, called a puffling!
Where there are seabirds, there are often seals too - always a delight to spot.

This season is a time of days getting longer and the spring sunshine bringing growth and greenery everywhere with buds bursting and leaves unfolding. Birdsong reaches a peak and many flowers appear, in turn attracting insect-life, including bees and butterflies. Even in the desert, the rains prompt amazing displays of color!
