People are currently outside Shrewsbury ambulance site, as they are about to remove nesting swallows from a active nest, after a licence has been granted, just weeks before they will fledge.. #StopNatureCrime #SaveOurSwallows @swallowspotting @ChrisGPackham @IoloWilliams2

[UKSwifts @swifts_uk]

URGENT 🚨 At 10 am tomorrow, Pest Control contractors will be at Shrewsbury Ambulance Station to remove nesting Swallows. WMAS have taken no professional advice. Somehow (???) this barbaric act is being done under a license from Natural England 1/2

Big news!! Chris has won the court case against CS Magazine and it’s writers. A huge sign of relief! A win against online bullying and harassment. Hopefully will see less trolling as a result 🤞

[Scottish Coastal Clean Up @ScotCoastClean]

Welcome to Scotland. This beach is on Skye & this is the reality of many of our beaches. A huge group of folk have worked incredibly hard over the last few days, to try & remove as much plastic pollution from Skye's beaches as possible. The issue is huge, shocking & heartbreaking

Important thread from Gibraltar Point shorebird warden @McGuireBethany. Please read and share widely

@SilphidaeUk That's good to know, thanks! Will do 😀

[Maxine Stringwell @MStringwell]

@SilphidaeUk is this Silpha tristis? Seen on sand dunes in Northumberland today.

[Maxine Stringwell @MStringwell]

@SilphidaeUk That's great, many thanks! Do you know why the abdomen sometimes protrudes from the end of the elytra? Is the one in my photo gravid?

Excellent late morning session looking for Pearl-bordered Fritillary larvae, basking on dead leaves. This one's nearly full grown. @CirencesterPark @BC_Glos

If you find any dead wild bird (thresholds no longer apply) please report to Defra at https://t.co/AFBr7DfeNv and continue to report to @BirdTrack and Epicollect if you use those systems. Understanding what is happening early in the breeding season is crucial.

In the home of #WildIsles in Bristol, @HomesEngland plan to build houses on these historic meadows.

In this place I watch over-wintering kestrels, listen to spring birdsong, soak up summer evenings and pick autumn blackberries.

We cannot destroy this.
