Recently we got chance to watch two really good documentaries about ‘regenerative’ agriculture

They aren’t in competition - but thought I’d review them so you can choose whether to watch them and which you might like

That’s a lovely photo of you and Alison David @Portloughan.

@peatysmoky @_BTO @BirdNET_App Please can you DM so I can have a further chat?

[Stephen Trew @StephenTrew]

The @_BTO #BreedingBirdSurvey results are out. I asked ChatGPT to plot a graph from the table of data for number of BBS survey squares for NI @BTO_NIreland. Here is the graph, a positive trend!

[Stephen Trew @StephenTrew]

This sounds, and looks, amazing!

[Irish Wildlife Sounds (Seán Ronayne) @SoundsIrish]

I am so blown away by & incredibly proud of what @KathleenCHarris, @rosswhitakertv & team have produced. Each one a total pro at the top of their game. I'm dying for everyone to see it. This new clip is just extremely moving - chills
