And you wonder why ‘they’ get a bad reputation 🤷🏻‍♂️

The remains & damage from a BBQ at Longslade Bottom this afternoon. @NewForestNPA & @EngNewForest colleagues had similar elsewhere 😞
Despite the #NewForest being on an amber wildfire alert 😠
Despite BBQ's & other fires being banned at all times anyway 😡

WTF @bbccountryfile mag. @MatthewOates76 I supply illustrations for article & offer to check before printing, including scale. See nothing - all subjects are shown out of scale, no mention of the book they’re from, & they’re CREDITED TO SOMEONE ELSE! @lizzie_harper shoddy work!

👀 Please tell us your sightings of #rhododendron in the #NewForest through a new survey.

Your records will help HLS partner @EngNewForest tackle this 'pretty invader' which can significantly affect local plants and wildlife.

Dear motorist - don’t cut junctions when there’s something coming the other way. Fortunately for you, this cyclists observation skills are far better than yours. Drive better.

The #NewForest is a key breeding grounds for rare #GroundNestingBirds 🐣
We are following their story this year with Lee, one of our Keepers who support wildlife in the Forest. He tells us about the birds & the species he's already spotted getting ready to breed.
