Swifts spend most of their lives on the wing, they even sleep in the air & only land to nest. Sadly with the #EcologicalEmergency there has been a 96% decline in swifts & swallows in our region. Find out how you can help them recover: https://t.co/Korjfr4zrN #SwiftAwarenessWeek

[Blooming Whiteway @BWFGF]

Claire and I (Jude) had a lovely meeting with the @growbatheaston group last night - in a wonderful outdoor setting with swifts swooping overhead! Locals in #batheaston you need to check them out for all things growing, community & sustainability

#BugIllustrationOfTheDay: Woundwort Shieldbug. I have been very pleased to find these beautiful bugs in our garden in central Bath! I am aiming to illustrate as many UK beetles & bugs as possible. Suggestions welcome! ⁦@Simon_Robson69⁩ ⁦@shotbert⁩ #pentatomisae

[Marian Hill @hill_marian]

Can anyone help identify these beetles? Is the one on the right a female thick legged flower beetle?.. I am uncertain as it isn’t as large or shiny as the male thick legged flower beetles I have seen .

[Marian Hill @hill_marian]

I have spotted all these beetles on my #lockdownwalk across the hills around Bath in the last 2 weeks. Have you sighted any other bugs or beetles which I could illustrate? ⁦@Bathscape⁩ ⁦@WeLoveBath⁩ ⁦@BathLifeMag⁩ ⁦@avonwt⁩ #bughunt #bioblitz #sciart

[Blooming Whiteway @BWFGF]

@edarcherthinks love this - thanks so much for posting - would love to see more if you spot any.

[Elizabeth Archer @edarcherthinks]

To whomever is chalking names and descriptions of trees on the pavements across Walthamstow. I love you. This made my heart sing today.

[Blooming Whiteway @BWFGF]

Fellow gardeners 🌱💚 Some much needed greenness and inspiration in all this fuzzy uncertainty at the moment!

As a Councillor for Twerton & Whiteway I would like to reassure residents I am still available to help. Visits will be limited to ensure the more vulnerable residents in our area are kept safe.

[Blooming Whiteway @BWFGF]

New @wildlifetrusts report shows impacts of #HS2 are escalating inc. possible local species extinction! Plans can't continue. I've added my name to a letter to the PM, @Wera_Hobhouse. Please speak up for wildlife & ask Boris Johnson to stop & rethink https://t.co/wDo41AHs6B
