A gallery of photos to say Merry Christmas from the Connecting Country team
Posted on 21 December, 2017 by Tanya Loos
It has been quite a year at Connecting Country! We would like to warmly thank all of our friends and supporters, our landholders and volunteers, the many groups we work with, and our funders for their ongoing involvement and support of Connecting Country.
We have some exciting on ground works and community engagement programs planned for 2018, and we very much look forward to announcing these early next year.
Bonnie and Tanya have compiled a gallery of flora and fauna pics from the year to scroll through. Many of these photos have been sent in to us by you, our subscribers (thank you!). The beauty, colour and variety of these photos is a testament to the rich and abundant landscape we live in, and to our enthusiasm for capturing this beauty.
We wish you all a very Merry Christmas, a peaceful holiday season, and a wonderful 2018…

Great photos, thank you so much. They help me identify what is around me.
What wonderful photos – thank you all very much.
They certainly brighten up a damp and drizzly morning in Buckinghamshire, England!
Absolutely beautiful – brings a tear to the eye as the photos just say “why we do what we do” ….
