I'm delighted to share the cover of my first author-illustrated picture book published by arsEdition, Germany

[Full Cast and Crew Podcast @fullcastandcrew]

RIP Karl Wallinger. Loved so many of his finely-wrought songs.

This is what river restoration looks like 👀

These Google Earth images show the dramatic transformation of Swindale Beck by @WildHaweswater in the Lake District.

Here's a quick 🧵 on how they did it, and the incredible #rewilding results. #WorldRiversDay (1/5)

Please screen-grab this tweet and keep it handy when food prices soar , water-wars break out , your house burns down , your business is washed away , polar bears are extinct or in a few years time when a desperate and angry young person asks you who was responsible for killing their world . . .

[Sharon Harmer @MrsMooart]

@JackieMorrisArt @BBCRadio4 Well said! 🙃 Fed up with illustrators being overlooked!

🚨 Politicians: turn the tide for nature 🚨

With a #GeneralElection on the horizon, ALL political parties must commit to taking action for nature - before it’s too late.

[The Bee Guy @the_beeguy]

So let’s talk about #honeybees in the context of ‘Saving the Bees’.
Let’s cut the bull & cut to the chase as there’s way too much confusion/misinformation out there which is a hinderance to & detrimental to genuine bee saving.
Please #retweet to help the bees that need it!

The incomparable Sir David Attenborough turns 97 today! 🎉

A very happy birthday to a true champion of nature 🌍💚

This is absolutely AMAZING! 😍 Only in slow motion can you appreciate this female Hairy-footed flower bee collecting pollen from these Cowslips on her proboscis. She then wipes it off with her front legs and attaches it to her hind legs, before storing it in her nest cell! ❤️🐝

[Mike Hudema @MikeHudema]

Tiny urban forests can help #rewild urban settings and help fight #climatechange. The brainchild of the Japanese botanist Miyawaki is taking his idea global.

We have so many solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate

#climate #forests #nature #biodiversity

[Joel Ashton 🍃🌳🍃 @_JoelAshton]

The UK is ranked as 12th lowest of 240 countries for biodiversity. Yes, you read that right! Therefore #nature needs all the help it can get & it starts in our own #gardens. So, dig that #pond, put up that bird box, plant those native wildflowers & let’s help #wildlife in 2023👍

[Brigit Strawbridge @B_Strawbridge]

Shocked to know that Natural England issue falconry licences allowing Skylarks - a red listed species - to be killed for sport. Also Fieldfare, Redwing, Meadow Pipit, Mistle Thrush...

Please read @JasonEndfield's full post below. He's worth a follow, too

@WildlifeMag What?!! 😢

[The Wildlife Trusts @WildlifeTrusts]

Groundhog Day for pollinators! 🐝 ❌
UK Government has once again, approved the use of a lethal, bee-killing pesticide. The Wildlife Trusts' Policy and Information Officer, Joe Llanos, explains why this is such a disastrous decision. https://t.co/sStclMgwWw

[Sharon Harmer @MrsMooart]

@LeeEvansBirding I don't follow you and the location of these birds appeared on my feed. Why did you do this?!!!

[Jon Dunn 🇺🇦 @dunnjons]

Hugely toxic neonicotinoid pesticides to be sprayed again in the UK. @DaveGoulson excellent on this on @BBCr4today, while @NFUSugar declined to engage. I wonder if DDT would have been banned in 80s were @NFUtweets as powerful a lobbyist as it is nowadays.
