There are now 2,401 Iberian lynxes in the wild! Yes every single one counts I played a small part in their recovery by starting the campaign SOS Lynx in 2000, so I have a vested interest in their success! #IberianLynx #Campaigns #MoralAmbition open.substack.com/pub/siobhanm...

A selfish joy! Feeding robins so I can watch them from a metre away whilst I sup a cuppa in the sunshine is a win-win for me! #Wildlife #EverydayWins

Checking #cameratrap footage and amidst the hundreds of files was this wonderful matriarch of the forest staring straight at the camera lens while she sussed it out. Seeing wild boar in their natural, curious state still gives me such a thrill. #wildboar #Portugal youtu.be/NtHJd1w82MA

I've lived with wild boar in Portugal for many years, watched their humbugs play, and waited for them to move so I could drive home and cursed them when they dug up my veg plot. One thing's for sure living with wild boar is never boring 😴 drumroll 🥺 youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Rachel Reeves holds newts in contempt, it seems. So I thought I'd post this glorious painting of a "lion of the duckweed" by Jackie Morris + my paean to these "kings of the pond", both from The Lost Words. Newt-lovers, unite!
