Just so deeply depressing. If Ministers can’t support something as simple as swift bricks, which can have an amazing impact for swifts, then what hope is there for more complex measures? They just don’t care

@FergusHenderso1 @_BCT_ Thank you!

@_BCT_ Which bat species is this? Found in Wiltshire.

A bit of a dream achieved. One day in the Lower Amazon and I have ringed a Hoatzin. These are one of the most primitive birds in the world that is considered as being a step away from the archaeopteryx.

@thorogoodchris1 Thank you Chris. Even the species!

[Alex Mackintosh @alexmxck]

Photo taken in the alps, west of Chamonix. Guide told us it was a bird's-nest orchid. I believe it's a broomrape. Can you settle the debate @thorogoodchris1

[Alex Mackintosh @alexmxck]

@thorogoodchris1 @TheDetermin8or Excellent. Thank you very much. A new plant for me.

[Alex Mackintosh @alexmxck]

Any idea of this broomrape species? Found in Bristol @thorogoodchris1

This week we hosted a Corn Bunting workshop for experts from across Europe sharing best practice for monitoring & conserving them. Locally they are increasing but they are declining fast in much of Europe. In the group pic we are looking for subtle differences for ageing & sexing

Best ever winter session at Swindon STW. All the targeted habitat management paying off: we ringed a record 18 Snipe and 9 Jack Snipe. Also 4 Teal and a record 28 Chiffchaffs. There can't be many 13 year old girls who get to ring Jack Snipe and Snipe in the same day!
