This April, the School of Anthropology and Conservation launched a student-led social media campaign called #windowsintowildlife. While lockdown measures saw us staying inside a lot more than usual, the moments that we have had in nature on our mandated one walk per day have been even more precious than usual. We invited staff, students and alumni to submit their photos of wildlife, both flora and fauna, either from their windows at home or whilst out roaming during daily exercise.

Here we offer our favourite submissions from the last three weeks of the campaign. The campaign has drawn to a close now and we would like to than everyone for their fantastic submissions.
