@DowlingWildlife Will the council tax of the future capture the environmental cost of such a "garden"? I remember learning about "polluter pays" policies 30 years ago; what will it take to raise awareness of the true cost of such schemes?

Meanwhile at @SWTLackfordLake the buzzards (and red tailed kites) were out hunting...

@SWTLackfordLake The Chiffchaffs were on full vocal display today at Lackford Lakes. Some quite yellowish-green (1st winter?). The two colours on the legs made me wonder if this was a Willow Warbler - but I'm guessing not based on song. #Chiffchaff

Shame on UK government. "Your blood for mine. If not these, then those. War is the supreme mathematics problem. It strains our skulls, yet we work out the sums, believing we have pressed the most monstrous quantities into a balanced equation." [Barbara Kingsolver, in The Lacuna]

Unacceptable! Today, the UK government is expected to announce that it will increase its nuclear weapon stockpile cap by 40% - to 260 nuclear warheads. https://t.co/U9DZdUBgka Here are 5 reasons why this is such a shocking move (thread)

@nuclearban Shame on the UK government.
I have not an iota of respect or trust left in them.

@limeypomme @suffolkwildlife @AfSwifts @SuffolkBirdGrp @SoSSwifts That is a lot of work. Hoe does one go about obtaining and installing one (or more?) of these. Do swifts like to roost together?

@FitzwilliamColl This is a chance for Fitzwilliam to live up to its heritage and show leadership in supporting those from the unprivileged backgrounds. I hope many more #CambridgeAlumni will sign the open letter https://t.co/QBkvOH8LpN

Cambridge alums, here is a petition to sign if you want to see the University fulfil its obligations and its own vision of a 'sufficiently sophisticated' admissions process! Get sharing and let's see some justice. #honourtheoffer https://t.co/pNAgLXAJcW

Have noticed wild foxgloves more than ever this year in the woods. Is it just my perception, or did they like the warm dry spring? #digitalis #foxgloves #wildflowers #knettishalheath

@c0mplexnumber @TarquinGroup @edsouthall Congratulations Clarissa, based upon my daughter and friends in year 8 there is a real need to bring a more creative slant to mathematics teaching. Sounds like a very worthwhile endeavour!

Since the solstice I'm hearing the dawn chorus starting to grow, this morning's piece the loudest yet. I don't recall noticing it this early before. A welcome sign of longer days.
