Mostly garden wildlife, especially birds and moths, with occasional forays from Warks over the border to Worcs reserves. And needing to express extra solidarity with Ukraine

This is a common & widespread practice taking place across the UK. More mindless, selfish, illegal behaviour from the gamebird shooting industry who claim to be the 'custodians of the countryside'. #Ornithology raptorpersecutionuk.org/2025/02/17/s...

A two-year investigation has found that @wwf.org.uk have been lobbying for the continued international trade of polar bear fur , all while using imagery of these beautiful animals for their fundraising . Despicable . www.theguardian.com/environment/...

The ban driven grouse shooting petition has passed 63,000 signatures. Plz add your name here if you want this discussed in parliament petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70... I wonder whether we can get to 66,666 by 21 Feb- that would be half way in time and two thirds of the way in signatures.

Rachel, please listen to Louise: “I wonder what you were thinking, when things could still be changed, when science predicted the consequences of global warming with great certainty, when people who knew what they were talking about rang alarm bells all over the world” #WeTheHopeful wethehopeful.org

When maximum sentence for chaining yourself to railings is over twice maximum sentence for racially aggravated assault, anyone who cares about justice should be appalled. This is a dangerous, undemocratic & disproportionate attack on longstanding right to peaceful protest in UK #DefendOurJuries

Stop worrying about bats and newts? No Rachel Reeves MP – start worrying about the future of our economy if we tear down the nature it depends on. Nature isn’t a blocker; it’s the foundation of growth.

Great stats for last year, thanks @bto-gbw.bsky.social The weasel was amazing, though far too brief a visit! Favourite birds this year - so far- 4 Blackcaps ( not all at once!) and shed loads of Siskin! #GardenBirds
