Lovely visit to Lancs Wildlife Trust’s Brockholes reserve on way home from Wales. Small flock of curlew passed over.

Amazon buys Bond. Deep sigh, I’m a huge, life-long fan of the films ever since that skydive with 🇬🇧 parachute. Bond films have always reflected current times so maybe a soulless Bond with no style, wit or heart will be on message for Bezos, and just be another homogenous action movie.

Bernie Sanders: "We are living in an unprecedented moment in American history. We are looking at a rapid growth of oligarchy. We are looking at a rapid growth of authoritarianism. And I fear we're looking at a rapid growth of kleptocracy as well."

Excellent piece on Channel 4 News about the new plans for a Land Use Framework. Great to see a spotlight on Essex Wildlife Trust defending nature - and a timely reminder of this country’s record on nature loss - some devastating stats…👇 www.channel4.com/news/farmlan...

Pet owners accidentally poisoning garden birds. Our latest research finds pet flea treatments (fipronil and imidacloprid) in 100% of blue tit and great tit nests, with nestling mortality higher in the more contaminated nest. @SongBirdSBS @SussexUni @CannelleTassin

Big news - finally Britain is doing what it says it is going to do, rather than going backward on harmful pesticides. For background info, this pesticide was recommended only for emergency use, but non-organic growers kept requesting "emergency use" every single year.

Nice to recatch a Willow Tit at our #LDV base this morning – originally ringed as an adult at the pool area at Wheldrake Ings in September last year. Good to still have several pairs present around the reserve but worryingly becoming more isolated from others in the wider area 🐦

Can we have a big shout-out for dandelions? These wildflowers will be back in just a few weeks - offering a vital early food source for all sorts of insects, including bees & butterflies. Please let them grow - this short film (made by our daughter) shows how they can boost biodiversity!
