Shameful. Labour talk about difficult decisions and tough choices. The choice this time? To cut the foreign aid budget. Why are the 'difficult choices' never taxing the wealth of the super rich?

Good evening! I wonder if you marvellous people could give this account a follow and a hello, they're lovely people! *disclaimer alert, I'm one of the lovely people 😬🤗

The latest guest blog from Walshaw Moor and Nick MacKinnon, Turbine 14 markavery.info/2025/02/12/g... Red Grouse cycles, peat depths and Crossbills. #calderdale #peat #grouse #walshaw #turbine #shooting #hairstreak #moths #vapourer #stoats #orwell #airedale

There’s been a murder... in downtown Otley. 😱 And all for the sake of a temporary footbridge. 🙁

It’s great to see our science story book still being shared & enjoyed. The #Kidlit community are so lovely, often sending me reels & photos. Thanks to @wondersofreading_ for creating this one. 🤍🐻‍❄️🐭🦇 ‘Winter Sleep: A Hibernation Story’ was written by me & Sean Taylor, & illustrated by Cinyee Chiu.

We knew pet tick & flea treatments contaminate every river via domestic effluents. Now we see they are poisoning bird nests too. These hideously ecotoxic compounds are already banned in agriculture so why are they still freely available for pets? www.pan-uk.org/garden-birds...

Due to an unavoidable event one couple have had to pull out of our Isle of Mull tour from the 4th to 12th of April 2025. For details of this all inclusive wildlife adventure send your email address & I will forward on the details. Ideal for a couple but singles are welcome.

Best spuds for your soil! 🥔 Clay soil? Go for blight-resistant varieties like 'Sarpo Mira' or 'Picasso'. 🥔 Sandy soil? Early maturing types like 'Rocket' or 'Lady Christi' are ideal. Don't forget to chit your potatoes before planting! #growyourown #potatoes #gardeningtips

Will multiple gin & tonics or a litre of caffeine kick the arse of the flu? I'm completely sucked out by it 😫 Even a volcanic combination of scotch bonnet chillies, 2" ginger & a bulb of garlic vegetable laden sweet & sour didn't make a dent 🥵 Preventative measures opening up to the postie earlier 😆

If you or anyone you know, likes birdwatching and struggles with their mental health and would like an e-copy of Bird Therapy to read (pdf), I’d love to send over a copy for free. It can be helpful to know you’re not alone. Please do message me if you would like a copy. #naturewriting #birdtherapy

Gill's outstanding literature is an excellent way to introduce wildlife & conservation stories naturally into conversation. How many of us fell in love with the natural world when we were young through exploring places that are now lost? These books connect people with the issues of our times, now.

Absolutely this.

Well, hello happy hellebores and pretty perky primroses, it's jolly lovely to see you! 💚💚

This petition represents what people thought was impossible to achieve with tobacco and alcohol not so long ago. It should have been sorted then, so please let's get it done now. Please, have a care, sign and share 💚

UK Govts have received recommendations about need to restrict use of toxic, poisonous lead ammunition to protect environments, wildlife & human health ☠️ Pls join wildlife experts to urge Ministers to implement a swift & total ban. Details 🔽 #ornithology raptorpersecutionuk.org/2025/01/07/u...

‘…and the box-office is drooling and the bar stools are on fire and the newspapers were fooling and the ashtrays have retired…’ I’m a fairly simple fucker. Just happen to be lucky enough to own a few fields and to have found a mission in life that suits me. Generally quiet spoken but rarely… 1/n

The Little Owl takes a pre-dawn shower, as the rain starts after a period of drought. A Blackbird starts off the dawn chorus. #birds #owls 🌿

A single 400-year-old ancient oak produces 234,000 litres of oxygen a year while soaking up carbon dioxide, and can support more than 2,000 species of bird, insect, fungus, and lichen. Nature is amazing - we need more of it, not less. Please repost if you agree 🌳

It would be great to get this done. See it, sign it, spread it, please! Let's get to January 2026 and look back on THIS year as being one we achieved so much together for the wildlings we love 💚

I have gained a lot of new followers by my profile being included in some lists. If you see this post, please take a look at my profile and then unfollow me if you're scratching your head too! I'm not here to collect people or follow back, I'd rather just be part of a nice small wild community 💚

All the best for the coming year Sam! Wishing you well and thanks for your tireless endeavours to remind us all to take care of ourselves and the vulnerable. AND, sharing that very yummy looking masterpiece, if only virtually 🤗

Well wasn't expecting this news today ! 🎉🎉🥳🚀 I have campaigned against this spaceport on the Moine from the outset as I never agreed on its siting in such a unique, fragile area when 'better' sites were already available. Hopefully that's the end of it ! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

My second book ‘Inside/Outside’ unites my passion for nature connection with my expertise in teaching emotional literacy. It’s a resource book for educators, and I use activities from it every week! This pic was from one of my old teachers, who bought three copies for their current school.

Don't forget to pay attention to the little things 💚

My third book is out next July with Bloomsbury. It’s called ‘Neurodivergent, By Nature: Why Biodiversity Needs Neurodiversity.’ A detailed description can be found at www.bloomsbury.com/uk/neurodive... and we’ll hopefully have a cover soon. #neurodivergence #naturewriting #nature #biodiversity

I remember when this vertical #urbangreenspace was just in the planning application stage and getting more objections than I expected. It's now a well-established site in the heart of #coventgarden.

It’s not good news on Marion Island, I’m afraid. Suspected HPAI cases have been identified in wandering albatross & giant petrels, as well as a skua. www.sanap.ac.za/forestry-fis...

We were pleased to help sponsor the @n-e-r-f.bsky.social conference this year & had a great day with them yesterday chatting with engaged & knowledgeable raptor experts. Our free reports went like hot cakes!
