Keeps her head in the clouds where the view can be breathtaking. Will come down to earth for beachcombing, bird watching and to drift aimlessly with nature.
New research by the RSPB confirms that swifts are loyal to their nesting site – with nine out of ten individuals returning to the same nest every year. So it's vital that these sites are protected, to help these much-loved but declining birds.

I am having a drink this evening with a friend in a Chiswick pub. Two policemen have just come into the pub and asked me to step outside. I have stepped outside and they have threatened me because I tweeted about a councillor banning seating outside pubs in Chiswick. They admit on video (watch it!) that I did not break the law at all. They came to threaten me. To warn me off tweeting about councillors and the council. This is modern Britain. This is the police state. Please, please, please watch this video. It does involve me using very bad language, but this has got to be seen. Police coming out to threaten someone who hasn’t committed a crime. I’m fuming.
Deeply saddened by today’s announcement that Dundee University’s Botanical Gardens will close. For generations, this beautiful space has been a place of learning, tranquillity, and connection with nature. A real loss for Dundee, its students, researchers, and artists.
BREAKING: Undercover footage shows the nightmarish warehouse cells where NYC carriage horses are trapped in deplorable conditions when not in dangerous NYC traffic.
These poor animals have a HORRIFIC LIFE of walking the busy streets , in and out of congested traffic in hot and cold temperatures. These horses NEVER touch grass, never graze in pastures and no socialization with other horses .
They have NO pasture for grazing and interacting with other horses as herd animals NEED to be healthy and they are denied proper veterinary care.
THIS HAS TO STOP. TAKE ACTION BELOW TO END THIS ABUSE.
Everyone can call NYC Council Health Committee Chair Lynn Schulman at 718.544.8800 and press 0 to leave a message to ask her to cosponsor and fast- track #RydersLaw Intro 967 to end this criminal horse abuse!
NEW YORKERS: please make a quick call or send an email to your own New York City COUNCIL MEMBER urging them to POST sponsor and pass intro 967,
#RydersLaw.

The Senegalese 🇸🇳 delegation gets this treatment on arrival in the USA. Full tarmac searches, shoes off, bags turned inside out like criminals.
This is straight up humiliation and a disgrace. They’d never put white boys through the same.
🚨🏴 Scotland is facing a massive data centre explosion and most people have no idea.
In a small village in Fife called Auchtertool.
A giant 600 megawatt AI hyperscale data centre called Cato is being proposed on farmland right next to Auchtertool in Fife, just 7 to 8 miles from the existing Queensway Park data centre in Glenrothes.
This monster project will cover around 61 acres, the size of about 35 football pitches.
One project alone using as much electricity every year as half a million Scottish homes, roughly 20% of the entire country's electricity consumption.
These hyperscale AI data centres are popping up across Scotland, sucking up massive amounts of power, water for cooling, and farmland, while we already pay some of the highest energy bills in Europe.
Scotland and its people have become the AI testing ground for the tech bro's
Are you happy with that?
Hopefully you will make a stand against this with me and others like @JamesMelville
Who has been fantastic at highlighting this all week, please have a look at his page.
To oppose this, go to the Fife Council planning portal and submit your objection now.
The application is 26/01243/PPP.
You can also contact your local councillor, your MSP, and your MP to raise concerns about the impact on our grid, bills, and countryside.
Every voice counts.
Ive put all the links in the comments including a MP template letter and planning documents.
Please share this with family and friends.
Thank you
If you can, put a shallow dish of water out for wildlife who will seriously appreciate access to water during this #heatwave. 70% of natural small bodies of water have gone since the ‘70’s & water will spell the difference between life and death for some.
Carbon dioxide shortages mask a major animal cruelty scandal – the use of CO2 as a slaughter method
Pigs are lowered into gas chambers, gasp for breath, hyperventilate & burn from the inside out
It is NOT humane

Roe deer are currently giving birth. They leave their kids hidden in long grass or undergrowth for several hours.
Babies haven't been abandoned and DON'T NEED RESCUING, MUM WILL RETURN.
DON'T BE TEMPTED, BACK OFF & ADMIRE AT DISTANCE 🙏🦌

Please, please, always keep your dog on a lead when walking in the countryside at this time of year. The fields and moors are full of babies and vulnerable nests. 🪺
If anyone comes across the little lad around the Sally Gap/Kippure, please secure him.
He answers to the name of Tippy but is very nervous.
Not mine but belongs to someone very dear to me.
Please retweet. ❤️
💔🦔When Bramble arrived we found old, infected wounds - likely from a strimmer. He’d been suffering like this for a long time & arrived in a very bad way. Now, he’s finally getting medical care.
#HedgehogAwarenessWeek Please check before strimming or mowing - it can save lives💚
This SCUMBAG basically got a slap on the wrist 😡!!
Animal abuser CALLUM PALMER of BRISTOL threw Apollo the cat from a balcony by his tail for Snapchat likes…🤬!
Palmer’s sickening attack on the male cat, named Apollo, was filmed during a drinking session and uploaded to Snapchat.
The 11-second clip showed Palmer on the outdoor balcony of a flat in the Kingswood area of Bristol, where Apollo was sitting.
He was filmed leaning down to stroke the friendly cat, who rolled onto his back to be petted.
Palmer then crouched down and said “I love cats” – before grabbing the animal by his tail and flinging him over the balcony and into the air.”
This is all he got….
Sentencing | 12 month community order; two-month alcohol abstinence order; £500 costs. Banned from keeping animals for seven years but can appeal after five years.
At the end of the video you can hear someone asking, “please don’t film.”
Trump doesn’t want voters knowing he is golfing while grocery and gas prices remain high.
Very Important Message!!
Do NOT, and I repeat do not buy plants treated with Neonicotinoids. Bees take the pollen back to the hive and feed it to the brood.
This is a number one cause of the colony collapse. It's important to NOT buy these plants!

Trump fell asleep again during a live televised meeting. If Joe Biden had done that, the media would have treated it like a national emergency and run wall-to-wall panic coverage for a week.
But when Trump does it, they look the other way because the clown show keeps their ratings up and their pockets full.
The hypocrisy is disgraceful. The media failed the country, and they know it.
