Nature can provide 'soul food' for people in lockdown – RSPB
Nature can provide “soul food” for people in lockdown, even in winter, the head of the RSPB has said. Beccy Speight, chief executive of the wildlife charity, said people have found that reconnecting with nature is good for their physical and mental health in the face of the pandemic. As the UK starts 2021 with further lockdowns, she said the natural world is already looking towards spring. And she encouraged people to connect with nature on their doorstep by taking part in the RSPB’s Big Garden Birdwatch at the end of the month.
