@TheMontyDon Gloomy wet day here, but the dahlias are still flowering, which makes me smile every time I look at them.

Saw this today on a walk. Think it’s a drinker moth caterpillar? Stunning.

@BrynRobinson5 I worked for 35 years and never claimed any benefit, and my last job for 13 of those years. Decided I needed a new challenge and changed jobs on the 18th March. Didn’t expect the challenge to involve finding a way to support myself and be told I don’t qualify to be furloughed!

@ChrisGPackham you inspired me this morning with your Marvin Gaye poodle slo-mo! The lyrics of this song from 1971 still resonate today, plus it’s a great song 🎶☺️ https://t.co/M8iUleEbQS

@Nature_Scotland @IoloWilliams2 @LeicaBirding @chrisiburns @ElizabethLow8 @Treshnish @skyeandfrisa Looks cold! But worth it ☺️

Verbena Bonariensis. Self seeds everywhere and an amazing plant for bees and butterflies 🐝🦋@wildflower_hour

@janepearce53 @HantsIWWildlife @JuliaBradbury @BBCSpringwatch @IoloWilliams2 And you cannot go for a walk the just go outside and stop and listen. Amazing what you can hear! Connect with nature ☺️

@brianh4951 @wildflower_hour @ukorchids You can see the bee orchid and pyramid orchid on Chineham Business Park. Appeared last year when an area of grass was left alone, after many years of mowing. Very exciting discovery!

@maggiem30026514 @PersimmonHomes @HedgerowEcocide @hedgehogsociety @xercessociety @PersimmonHomes Appreciate the fencing needs to stay but plant viburnum or photinia or something that’s low maintenance and produces pollinator flowers and berries, behind it! The grass will not get used for anything so why not give it to wildlife, and a nice view to home owners

This is plain stupid. We have millions of hectares of nitrogen-enriched, re-seeded grassland in the UK, yet the tiny fragments of species-rich grassland get planted with trees, tubes stakes and ties...

@AliDriverUK @ZacGoldsmith @DefraGovUK We have an open space site directly in front of our house. Last year a wildflower meadow strip was created in the middle. Never had grasshopper or crickets before and suddenly there was an abundance of them. Small, simple projects that cost very little but make a big impact.

If you can afford this, it’s a great way to have instant wildflowers without the work, and in turn help our insects to thrive. Businesses should be considering this as an option when landscaping the neglected areas around their building.https://t.co/CJmrnPm7cq

@msnewman1001 @HantsIWWildlife @LGSpace Hellebores are also good this time of year and they last ages!
