Rewild the world 🌱

[Butterfly Conservation 🦋 @savebutterflies]

Update: Neonic exemption licence applied for 2025/26 ⚠️

Neonicotinoids are harmful water-soluble chemicals that leach into the wider landscapes, and @DefraGovUK have no idea how much of it is in use, or where. All while butterflies are dying. 🧵(1/3)

President Erdogan of Turkey 🇹🇷 is carrying out the biggest slaughter of stray dogs in modern history, boycott tourism in Turkey 🇹🇷 until cruel madness ends @RTErdogan @animalsavemvmt @InsaneHuseyin @MeldaKelemcisoy #Turkey

[dominic dyer @domdyer70]

You can threaten & seek to intimidate me but you will never silence me when it comes to seeking to protect the stray dogs of Turkey. Their pain & suffering shames Turkey 🇹🇷 @RTErdogan @imamoglu_int #Turkey

Birmingham city centre this week. I found a whole family of Black Redstarts. (made work more bearable)😀

@stephwebb99 Pied Wagtail possibly? 🤔

[Helen Withers @helenwithers]

Just come away from the #restorenaturenow march which thousands attended and so looked for coverage of it on the BBC website; NOTHING. This is a problem. @ChrisGPackham @Feargal_Sharkey @lizbonnin @MeganMcCubbin @georgecmcgavin @MarkAvery @CraigBennett3

[Chris Packham @ChrisGPackham]

Just found this on my feed . . .

Well , I’d rather spend every breath trying to do something than waste a lifetime doing nothing

And ultimately - you never know . . . worms turn , sometimes on a sixpence

Another #swift nest box up today for Sarah in Westgate.
Keeping the skies alive.

[Hannah Bourne-Taylor @WriterHannahBT]

This scene exposes the UK population decline of swifts. A joy & relief but also💔to know what a thriving local population looks like versus the reality in the UK.Who’s seen as many swifts as this lately? ⁦@ZacGoldsmith⁩ ⁦@SharonStevenage⁩ ⁦@mtpennycook⁩

[Derek Gow @gow_derek]

Hard to believe its Britain. Lizards in the long grass. Orchids sprouting through. Red deer are the kings in this valley with beavers their willing allies. One day soon wildcats will join them. Martens will find a way. Demoiselles and emperors purr above its extending swamps.

[Peter Cairns @PCairnsPhoto]

Call me sad, but this photo brings me such joy. I hate fences. Almost obsessively. After 30 years, this is the last visually and physically intrusive fence removed from our farm. It’s a tiny piece of a much bigger jigsaw, but I feel better! #MakingRewildingHappen #Northwoods

[Hannah Bourne-Taylor @WriterHannahBT]

BIG thanks to ⁦@beverleyturner⁩ and ⁦@toryboypierce⁩ for giving swifts airtime today on ⁦@GBNEWS⁩ 🤩WE need to ensure our elected govt mandate swift bricks - without them there’s NO nesting habitat for swifts in the UK&there never will be. Write to your MP. Now.

[Hannah Bourne-Taylor @WriterHannahBT]

Fellow passenger: Where are you going with a brick in your bag?
Me: Parliament

[Chantal Lyons @CSLyons]

This is a wonderfully simple visual of how targeted the extinctions in the late Quaternary were…
(“Target” is a deliberate word choice. Can’t believe some people still doubt we did this)

[Harry Munt @Harry_Munt_]

The hedge looking so vibrant and green!

@MiniHorts @TobyBuckland @BBCSounds @BBCDevon @Natures_Voice Looks beautiful! Especially bordering the blossoming apple trees - thanks for posting :)

[Harry Munt @Harry_Munt_]

Just need our surrounding National Parks to be managed less like intensive landscape stills...

[Harry Munt @Harry_Munt_]

Not #conservation in the way we're all used to - but positive stuff imo.

Old buildings are important for local Sparrow, Starling and bat populations, so conserving them + surrounding trees at least slightly future-proofs them 🤞
