NATURE WRITING | PROJECT INNOVATION | DISPLAYS & EXHIBITS
Working for wildlife
and wild places
Out in nature, in the peace and solitude of wild places, where the sound of water spilling over mossy rocks or a robin singing from a leafy branch is woven within the subtle nature of things, we return to a feeling of knowing – of the land and of self.
I have learnt so much through my many years of working for wildlife and their wild homes, and these offerings come from my heart, and I hope they enrich your life as they have mine.
May pathways lead us into enchanted woodlands along secret trails scented with wild garlic or scatterings of autumn leaves; May we notice all the tiny details, the beauty, and fragility of this earthly experience; May the diversity of creatures fill us with wonder as we immerse in the peace of small things; May we feel thankful that we live in such a magical world.
NATURE WRITING | PROJECT INNOVATION | DISPLAYS & EXHIBITS
​​​​Since I launched Cape Envirolink in the late 90s, I have immersed myself in projects that share stories about ecology and our deeper connections to the world of wild nature. Through weaving poetic narratives with thought-provoking imagery, I hope to take people along a pathway of discovery so that they touch their emotions and thereby deepen their sense of wonder and appreciation for the wider living world.
Such lovely curation of our natural environment.

As the Wild Geese Fly
It was an ordinary afternoon, like any other. Then, in a moment, reaching among the books, Rachel removes a slim collection of poems that will have a lasting influence on her life.

Outdoor displays
Through my visual displays, I combine descriptive and thought-provoking narratives with compelling imagery to share stories of the earth, ecology, and the animals that live beside us.
The glorious world of books
Over the years, I have had the pleasure of working on many independent books in a design, editing, and publishing capacity. I so enjoy bringing my aesthetic considerations to a project to enhance the visual and narrative storytelling. I work with independent book publishers, mainly within the genres of nature and ecology.
Interpretative awareness
and educational displays
I create visually and narratively-engaging public awareness exhibits. My latest display, 'This Land These Creatures', consisting of 32 large-format narrative panels, explores the world of urban wildlife.
Please be in touch if you would like to chat about hosting this display.
A beautiful initiative – may it grow and expand and inspire many to live in greater harmony with our wild neighbours.

having a life purpose
I am busy studying towards becoming a Wild Nature ecotherapy mentor with the vision of offering therapy and immersive sessions to deepen one's innate relating to nature and to self - I will share more towards the end of 2025.
Working together | coming soon
Short video stories
Smoke curling from chimney pots, warming smells of evening cooking, a soft glow as the sun slowly settles behind distant hills, and in the darkness, quiet, secretive, from deep in the shadows, wild lives begin to stir…
I have created these short video stories to share my interest in and concerns for wild animals and wild places.
