I know that when I initially approached relevant organisations totally out of the blue about a project and said I wanted to work with them with no social preliminaries, folk thought I was mad or arrogant. I did too. But now I know why I do this... see below (from Normally Weird and Weirdly Normal)

Our Barn Owl must have stayed in watching Watch Out after Springwatch…

Yesterday afternoon I spotted a Tawny Owl in a conifer. It was sitting up straight & I DID think about how it swallowed its prey whole, & sorted out its breathing meanwhile, & being able to think like that about the Owl is EXACTLY what I pay my licence fee for @bbcspringwatch.bsky.social

It’s official, watching Springwatch is a momentary cure for illness… may be it was the White tailed eagles, or the life in a dry stone wall…

There are a few Blackbirds round here who have long beep like notes at the end of their song. I have been wondering why they do it. Then I heard a delivery van reversing…

When you are ill it’s always good to think about nature. I think about some badgers I know, or a part of a river, or a blackbird (so underrated) I recall the feelings I have being with animals and keep away from anything that’s violent, aggressive or negative. I try to think kindly. And I let go.

Your reminder to please, please report dead badgers to the Badger Trust www.badgertrust.org.uk/report and your local police force's wildlife crime unit. The police will come and send it for testing. It is really important to help these beautiful animals...don't not say anything.

Watching the Homes for everyone and Nature Too panel at Hay Festival thinking about how we use/abuse parks too - parks are important urban wildlife habitats - Labour gov abusing the countryside, Lab council abusing the parks. We are going to have to start some serious protesting. @lambeth_council

True story - council out to cut away two feet of verge from hedgerows in the village and then use a blower to blow the hay away... just where there are hedgehogs, weasels & nearby nesting birds. WHAT is the point, WHAT has been achieved? Why not leave the grass for badgers to line their setts with?

This is very worth doing - burning on the moors is just plain bad for many, many reasons - go here and Wild Justice can help you navigate this form. It is also just plain interesting and a learning experience... wildjustice.org.uk/general/plea...

The hardest and greatest lesson, is that you are your own light. It does not mean, that at times, you can't bask in the light of others. You can draw strength from doing that. But ultimately, you must return to your own light. Be your own light.

Inside our ADHD Minds is so important for obvious reasons, & because it talks so openly about ADHD & other neurodivergences becoming heightened during the peri-menopause/menopause - it has to be a revelation to so many. Had suicide ideation for so, so long, but I can begin to understand myself now
