@regulus_uk Thanks Roger. Please pass onto him my email address.

🚨 A nationally protected wetland, #BroadwaterLake, is under threat.

⚠️ Hillingdon Council's proposed Watersports Facility on this SSSI endangers #wildlife & undermines environmental protections.

👉 Object to the planning application now: https://t.co/ZOjorsXiIM

@birdmanuk68 Possibly, unsure right now. Might be well meaning folks. Signage will go up soon. Thanks again for your help.

[Josh Kalms @JoshKalms]

@birdmanuk68 Requested confirmation either way, though havn't heard yet. Will keep you posted.

@ellamcsweeney @EoghanDalton Could the council use #riverfly surveys to help identify where the pollutant is entering the stream? It's a technique widely used for detecting pollution sources... including bleach 😡 The irony is shocking.

Water voles are mini ecosystem engineers! Not quite enough to create the sizable wetlands needed like actual beavers but certainly shows they can manage the riverbank small scale, keeping light coming in for longer. Taken by the Mimram on Saturday #snazzy

Not much of a snazzy picture but a sure sign that water voles really are mini beavers. At Panshanger Park their willow coppicing is keeping the river banks open. @panshangerpark #WaterVoles

Our friends at @AffinityWater made this wonderful video encouraging people to save water to save wildlife. The River Colne and Stocker’s Lake in Hertfordshire features in the film with @GwkSouth and the Colne Valley Regional Park. https://t.co/moo8ZfZGCX

@DuncanWestbury @billsbirding @Natures_Voice @BTO_Worcs @WorcsWT @worcester_uni @UW_Sustain Oh well, it looks like campus wildlife is thriving... even without the bog garden!

[Josh Kalms @JoshKalms]

@billsbirding @DuncanWestbury @Natures_Voice @BTO_Worcs @WorcsWT @worcester_uni @UW_Sustain I wonder how that marshy area is doing!?

Please take a look at this montage of the breeding efforts of our herons and little egrets so far in 2022.

@luna_lighthouse @HMWTBadger @merlinsleeps Here's a nice one from your voles at Thorley :)

[Josh Kalms @JoshKalms]

@DuncanWestbury @Shitlawns Ha thanks Duncan! Always good to be reminded we're not alone in this sea of plastic sterility.

[Josh Kalms @JoshKalms]

@minkadeer Thanks, good to know 🙏

[Josh Kalms @JoshKalms]

@DuncanWestbury @SaveTurtleDoves More turtle doves this year? Seems there won't be 1 million fewer than the last - at least hope that populations might recover.
