Now that ground-nesting bird season is here, wonderful species like this magical nightjar are returning from Africa to nest at our nature reserves 🥰

That's why we're asking all visitors, especially dog walkers, to take a little extra care. Find out more: https://t.co/OGewgo62Z9

@NorthantsPolice please protect @paulpowlesland and take action against the illegal tree felling

[Paul Powlesland @paulpowlesland]

So, I find myself 30ft in the air up a tree in Wellingborough- surrounded by police, security & tree surgeons- trying to prevent an illegal tree felling. How did I end up here? Here’s an outrageous story of nature destruction & collusion between authorities & private developer 🧵

The beauty of maths

[ARCHIVED - NASA Sun & Space @NASASun]

The @NASAWebb telescope orbits the Sun a million miles from Earth at what's called the second Lagrange point, or L2.

This keeps the telescope in line with Earth as it orbits the Sun, allowing its sunshield to block the light and heat of the Sun and Earth.

Nice! Thanks for sharing. Where is that? And what are bioclastic sands?

[Cody Mason, Ph.D @CosyNomad]

What do you see in this first image? (Second image for context/scale).

The light colored beds are marls, overlain by bioclastic sands.

This is the incredible Halitrephes maasi jellyfish. It's extremely rare and is know also as the fireworks jellyfish.

Nature is more amazing than we can ever know. Protect it in all its forms. #ActOnClimate
