Ray Jackson MBE and Me in Lower Moss Wood
A
crisp, icy December day provided a scenic and slippery drive down the country
lanes to Lower Moss Wood, near Knutsford in Cheshire.
This Wildlife
Hospital and Educational
Nature Reserve founded and run by Ray Jackson MBE, provides a much needed
centre for the care and rehabilitation of sick and injured wild creatures. http://www.lowermosswood.org.uk
The
reason for my visit was to make a donation from the sale of one of my
paintings, of a Brown Hare.
Red Fox Drawing
One
of Ray's resident foxes, a tail-less vixen called Mara, became the model for
one of my pencil and ink drawings for the forthcoming book; Mammals of Cheshire by the Cheshire
Mammal Group.
