This is what entitlement looks like! 🤬
There are nesting waterbirds on this pond on Hampstead Heath... there are also big 'No Swimming' signs, all being totally ignored! 🤬
Pure selfishness... 😒🤬🤬

@SheffCouncil why you spraying Sheffield streets with pesticides? Im HORRIFIED to see GLYPHOSATE sprayed on our streets by a Council worker. Cities across UK and Europe have banned it. It kills wildlife, is a health risk, cats and dogs can get very sick BAN IT NOW! @_OliviaBlake

@DarrenNWoodhead Amazing, my son will love it

@Davedack81 Looks like a species of robber fly

@KaneBrides 39 Whoopers on Kielder Water today, fresh in

[Gary Storey @GEStorey]

@KaneBrides @ScottoftheMarsh @Stephen8Vickers Yeah, they were still calling away around 5:30pm. I couldn’t see them but imagine they were in that small inlet, only just out of sight. Will see if they’re there in the morning 🤞

[Gary Storey @GEStorey]

@KaneBrides @ScottoftheMarsh @Stephen8Vickers Birds are here. Interesting they come straight over. The birds I usually see come directly from the east and land around Tower Knowe

[Gary Storey @GEStorey]

@KaneBrides @ScottoftheMarsh @Stephen8Vickers It’s always a good time of year at Kielder for Whooper. Had a flock of 33 depart on Friday. A flock back in 2019 follow me up the valley. Managed to get this shaky footage of them coming over the dam wall

[Gary Storey @GEStorey]

@DaveThroup @WildJustice_org Very similar currently happening in the estate I’ve moved to. The residents are keeping the pressure on the developer and the council. They finally put up the 10 bird boxes that were meant to be up (in the TPO trees) as mitigation, prior to build start. Only 2 years late!

@DarrenNWoodhead 21 SOLD

@DarrenNWoodhead 👀 will have to be quick

[Gary Storey @GEStorey]

@DarrenNWoodhead Fantastic

[Gary Storey @GEStorey]

A Wolf Spider in the garden today was a new species to add to the list. Pleased it hung about for a few phone snaps.

Over 150,000 voters have seen this post @RishiSunak @michaelgove - in case you're wondering, I won't be giving up. Us Brits are not prepared to sit back & watch iconic species become nationally extinct when there's a simple brick that can secure their essential nesting habitat.

[Megan McCubbin @MeganMcCubbin]

So very sad… it’s crazy to believe this still continues in our countryside. If anyone has any information, please step forward 😔🦅
