Managed to spot two of the Teignmouth Alpine Swifts this morning after a long tense wait. #Devon #birdwatching #alpineswift

Moving day!
After drying for 12 - 24 hours, our chicks move up to a brooder. Being precocial (feathered and raring to go) they can already move around, albeit in a wobbly fashion, feeding themselves.
We'll check on them throughout the day :)

Happy hatch day to our first chick!!
We welcomed our first chick of our first clutch on Friday afternoon, with the rest of the clutch following soon behind - more adorable photos to follow!

Can you recognise the umbilicus? Yep, chicks have belly buttons just like we do!
The umbilicus is where the yolk is absorbed into the body prior to hatch, giving the chick the nutrition it needs for its first day in the outside world.

We're getting ready to greet our first hatchlings within the next week or so!
Did you know Curlew chicks are precocial? This means they hatch ready to go - moving about and feeding themselves from as soon as day 1!

@LibDemJayM @lomas_tim @mi6rogue Absolutely

@lomas_tim @mi6rogue But rise in crime does need to be controlled for the increase in population, which I don't think this is.

Tell me , is it true that there is a test for #Geronimo but that @alpacapower needs permission from @DefraGovUK to test him, which they won't allow and have threatened her with jail if she pays to have #Geronimo tested without their permission ? RT please

Three Tory MPs were suspended for just one day after trying to influence a judge in a sexual assault case.

This is the same punishment I received for calling Boris Johnson a liar, which we all know to be true.

How is this fair? Things have to change!

A children's annual from 1967. What detail on the world of the Scots Pine. Same for Oak, Beech etc on other pages. I wonder if we can ever get all this back into young people's worlds?

@nchamberlain @ErinEARoss @steeljawpanda @DrLucyHawkes Was it possible the work of a Shrike? They are known to spear prey in larders.
