Fascinating bird-themed book reading #TheYard Hants yesterday, masterly hosted @Margotgoodlife, where @corbettlarks & @PaddyGalbraith shared their insightful thoughts on how our perception of the natural world has turned into one of loss & repair. Very thought-provoking. Bravo!

[Megan Lock @MeganRural]

Fabulous evening at The Yard Hants, hosted by @Margotgoodlife, speaking to @PaddyGalbraith and @corbettlarks about their books and the becoming a species dislocated from its natural environment, but connecting with those who aren't and hearing what they have to say #listenMore

@EdwardThomasFS I quoted the last verse in my book. A pure evocation of what it is to experience autumn.

[Edward Thomas Fellowship @EdwardThomasFS]

One of two poems Edward Thomas wrote with this title, this one in April 1915.

I'm looking forward to have a good chinwag with @PaddyGalbraith and @Margotgoodlife about the spiritual and cultural void left by the loss of once abundant garden and farmland birds. We've become a species dislocated from its natural environment!

@mattthesparrow @Sarahseeksbirds @WiltsBirdClub @SwindonWS @SpaceForNature @NorthWessexAONB @NoahWal01 I’ve seen lots more swifts this year than usual, in Stanton. Have you seen more about this year generally, Matt?

[Charlie Corbett @corbettlarks]

@guywalters @Dannythefink How very non-U. And I suspect the TV is in the nursery.

@MattChorley Nimbin Hippy Museum. Out of this world.

“It was a perfect title, in that it crystallized the article's niggling mindlessness, its funeral parade of yawn-enforcing facts, the pseudo-light it threw upon non-problems.”

Too much of this about these days.

Speaking of political assassinations, please can @holland_tom and @dcsandbrook do an episode on the Cato St Conspiracy of 1820? A failed plot to murder the entire cabinet with blunderbusses and cutlasses. It is comedy, it is farce, it is tragedy. And it’s a story not enough told.
