We need to #DefendNature or risk a future of wildlife decline🥀

The Retained EU Law Bill could take us here as it risks removing protection for bat species

Government must stop the bill now🛑

A different kind of ‘snow’ in #Buxton today! Nice to see public lawns being left to flower, enjoyed by people and wildlife!

[Helen Hamilton @HelenHamilton10]

Nice to find the common #pipistrelle #bat #roost where expected during licensed roof strip of listed building. Bat access can be kept and is visible in the tenon joint. @PAA_Ecology #lovebats

@DrScholefield @PAA_Ecology @BSBIbotany Cool, thanks!

[Helen Hamilton @HelenHamilton10]

Nice to see some fine stands of greater tussock #sedge Carex paniculata - don’t often get to see these at such a size, and so many! Wonder how old they are... @PAA_Ecology @BSBIbotany

Proud to be with #NewMills school children who went to #climatestrike #Manchester today. @NewMillsPrimary @TransitionNM #directaction #protest #changeforclimate

[Helen Hamilton @HelenHamilton10]

@DrScholefield @PAA_Ecology @BSBIbotany There! Exactly:)

[Helen Hamilton @HelenHamilton10]

Love it when the #pipistrelle #bats are easy to separate! Nearly analysed all the Derbyshire #batmap data I collected for @derbyshirebats last year. Got 7 species minimum, including rare Leisler’s!

A successful hibernating bat survey in the Manifold Valley in the @peakdistrict with @derbyshirebats & @staffsbats today. Adding to the @BCT_NBMP dataset started by the late Derek Yalden back in the 1970s.
