???? IMPORTANT PLEASE READ ????
We are a mental health based channel, we do not add commentary throughout our calming music/nature videos as it would distract from the relaxation experience, but we do have affirmations, guided meditations, and behind the scenes videos available. Our channel helps provide relief from stress & anxiety.
???? Our videos are currently filmed with a GoPro Hero7, Panasonic DMC-G85, & iPhoneX. We edit, mix, and master the audio in Protools & create the video in Premiere Pro. In the past, we sometimes collaborated with other video creators (with legal permission), which we would significantly transform into something new and add our own unique music and sounds.
???? We create our own music with our own instruments (unless otherwise stated, which is very rarely). My Mother (Elita) and I are both musicians and have played for many years.

Birds at Ham Wall Nature Reserve, Somerset - Spring 2019
A day out birding at the RSPB's Ham Wall Nature Reserve, near Glastonbury in Somerset. This video features many of the birds I saw including Marsh Harriers, Black-tailed Godwit, Common Sandpiper, Great White Egrets and Lapwings.
As you would expect in spring, birds were singing loudly, performing courtship displays and building nests. The video opens with the sound of a Bittern booming and elsewhere you can hear the songs of Cuckoos, Reed Warblers and Wrens, among many others.
In some shots you can see a hill with a tower on the top. This is Glastonbury Tor, topped by St Michael's Tower which is all that's left of the 14th-century church of St Michael.

A WILDLIFE SPECTACLE! Starling Murmuration, RSPB Ham Wall Nature Reserve
The starling murmuration is one of the wildlife spectacles of England. Last I travelled to Ham Wall Nature Reserve to watch it - all of which I filmed so that you can experience it too!
This takes place throughout the winter just after sunrise and just before sunset. We watched these beautiful birds dancing through the sky for over an hour, it was really very special!
I am Roxy and I am a zoologist and wildlife presenter who is keen to share my love of animals and the natural world with others. My videos are not only about seeing animals, but also how my lifestyle (vegan and low impact) helps to save wildlife and our planet too. I hope to inspire others to get outside, enjoy nature, and get involved with conservation efforts.

Places to see in ( Glastonbury - UK )
Glastonbury is a town and civil parish in Somerset, England, situated at a dry point on the low-lying Somerset Levels, 23 miles south of Bristol. The town of Glastonbury is in the Mendip district. Glastonbury is less than 1 mile (2 km) across the River Brue from Street, which is now larger than Glastonbury.
Evidence from timber trackways such as the Sweet Track show that the town has been inhabited since Neolithic times. Glastonbury Lake Village was an Iron Age village, close to the old course of the River Brue and Sharpham Park approximately 2 miles (3 km) west of Glastonbury, that dates back to the Bronze Age. Centwine was the first Saxon patron of Glastonbury Abbey, which dominated the town for the next 700 years. One of the most important abbeys in England, it was the site of Edmund Ironside's coronation as King of England in 1016. Many of the oldest surviving buildings in the town, including the Tribunal, George Hotel and Pilgrims' Inn and the Somerset Rural Life Museum, which is based in an old tithe barn, are associated with the abbey. The Church of St John the Baptist dates from the 15th century.
The town became a centre for commerce, which led to the construction of the market cross, Glastonbury Canal and the Glastonbury and Street railway station, the largest station on the original Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway. The Brue Valley Living Landscape is a conservation project managed by the Somerset Wildlife Trust and nearby is the Ham Wall National Nature Reserve.
Glastonbury has been described as a New Age community which attracts people with New Age and Neopagan beliefs, and is notable for myths and legends often related to Glastonbury Tor, concerning Joseph of Arimathea, the Holy Grail and King Arthur. Joseph is said to have arrived in Glastonbury and stuck his staff into the ground, when it flowered miraculously into the Glastonbury Thorn. The presence of a landscape zodiac around the town has been suggested but no evidence has been discovered. The Glastonbury Festival, held in the nearby village of Pilton, takes its name from the town.
The Tribunal was a medieval merchant's house, used as the Abbey courthouse and, during the Monmouth Rebellion trials, by Judge Jeffreys. The octagonal Market Cross was built in 1846 by Benjamin Ferrey. The George Hotel and Pilgrims' Inn was built in the late 15th century to accommodate visitors to Glastonbury Abbey.
The Somerset Rural Life Museum is a museum of the social and agricultural history of Somerset, housed in buildings surrounding a 14th-century barn once belonging to Glastonbury Abbey. The Chalice Well is a holy well at the foot of the Tor, covered by a wooden well-cover with wrought-iron decoration made in 1919.
Just a short distance from the Chalice Well site, across a road known as Well House Lane, can be found the White Spring, where a temple has been created in the 21st century. The building now used as the White Spring Temple was originally a Victorian-built well house, erected by the local water board in 1872.
The Glastonbury Canal ran just over 14 miles (23 km) through two locks from Glastonbury to Highbridge where it entered the Bristol Channel in the early 19th century. The nearest railway station is at Castle Cary but there is no direct bus route linking it to Glastonbury. There are convenient bus connections between Glastonbury and the railway stations at Bristol Temple Meads (over an hour travelling time) and at Taunton. The main road in the town is the A39 which passes through Glastonbury from Wells connecting the town with Street and the M5 motorway.
( Glastonbury - UK ) is well know as a tourist destination because of the variety of places you can enjoy while you are visiting the city of Glastonbury . Through a series of videos we will try to show you recommended places to visit in Glastonbury - UK

A Walk Around Ham Hill Country Park
Spending Time InThe WILD doesn't always mean heading to remote regions or climbing the highest mountains. It can indeed look like taking time to explore local country parks or nature reserves, which can be a hugely rewarding experience, both in terms of benefiting physical health and mental wellbeing. As an added bonus, you never know quite what you will find along the way!

Westhay Moor Walk, National Nature Reserve, Somerset Walks In England, UK
Westhay Moor Walk was about 4.75 miles in distance. The terrain of the route was a combination of raised trackways, field and woodland paths, tracks and a some short quiet lane sections. The walking was mostly easy on level ground with one short gentle ascent and descent. Route finding was easy with obvious paths, good waymarking and good landmarks. There were 2 stiles to negotiate.
