Here it is. My manifesto for the 2026 Clacton By-Election. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Join me, clean up Clacton and let's make 13th August Bin Day! #VoteBinface #VoteyMcVoteface #YesWeTinCan

@MarburyBirds Used to be called Lousy Watchman. Turn one over in your hand and they usually harbour quite a few large mites on their undersides.

@greenheartlands @WiganCouncil @Lancswildlife They seem rather upright with flowers on different sides of the stalk, which might point to them being Spanish bluebells, or at least hybrids of our native and Spanish bluebells?

@dominicsutton @NHM_Bees @Lancswildlife @ChrisGPackham Sounds like a sharp-tailed bee is sneaking in to lay her eggs. They are cuckoos of leaf-cutters. Quite scarce.

[Dominic Sutton @dominicsutton]

@DaveGoulson I need an answer to this conundrum! This fluffy yellow leaf cutter bee is building a nest in my bench with leaves from an adjacent cercis canadensis. A different bee (darker with distinct yellow stripes and an obvious pointed tail) is removing the leaf portions.. 1/2

[Dominic Sutton @dominicsutton]

…and dropping them (not stealing them) Here’s a picture of some of the removed leaf pieces. What on earth is going on? @DaveGoulson @NHM_Bees @Lancswildlife @ChrisGPackham #bees …2/2

Leaf cutter #bees nesting in my house bricks, how lovely! We have seven species in UK, which one is this? I’m guessing Megachile centuncularis but I stand to be corrected! @NHM_Bees @DaveGoulson @Lancswildlife

It’s actually a pignut.

Here’s a short video of the suspected red throated pipit

[Dominic Sutton @dominicsutton]

#merlinbirdid tells me this is a red throated pipit, a rare autumn visitor to the UK. Does anybody agree? @_BTO @RSPBbirders @RSPBManchester @ChrisGPackham

@BBCNews What on earth is going on with the #bbcnews channel? It’s like the first week of #GBNews Cameras on the wrong people, talking in the background and sounds of furniture being moved.This is an absolute shambles, reverse these awful changes or you will have no audience left
