@thomasroliveruk @Buzz_dont_tweet @FSCBiodiversity I must admit I stopped using Twitter a wee while ago, logged on today for the first time in ages to see this. Pleased you enjoyed the talk :)

[Kate @JonesintheWild]

Ah yeeeaaah! It is ON wildflower wise. Glorious, gorgeous diversity on my usual walk. Cowslips, early purple orchid, wild garlic, red campion, yellow archangel and bush vetch #wildflowerhour

Went out for a evening walk to my local @ShropsWildlife nature reserve. I was trying to find a woodpecker with my bins & saw a little bird flitting about, turned out to be a male pied flycatcher, one of my favourite birds. Then I followed the brown leaf road home. @BTO_Shropshire

Do you want to help bees and other pollinating insects?
Can you inspire and engage others to help nature’s recovery?
Would you like to gain valuable experience with our #BLines team?
Then perhaps this is the internship for you!

Is there a prettier flower than Wood Anemone at this time of year? Proper storybook charm. @wildflower_hour @BSBIbotany

A lovely Easter weekend with plenty of spring firsts - blackcap singing, brimstone & this lovely orange tip butterfly, all seen at Fenn's, Whixall and Bettesfield Mosses @savebutterflies #spring @Buzz_dont_tweet

@GwendoPo Where are those going Gwen?

[Kate @JonesintheWild]

A glorious morning. I took a turn about the garden with my morning cuppa; chiff chaff singing, the low drone of bees & a dark edged bee fly sunning itself. Spirits lifted. Methinks the moth trap could debut tonight #spring @invertebrate_uk @DipteristsForum @Buzz_dont_tweet

[ECOALBANIA @ECOALBANIA1]

In exactly one month, Albanian elections will take place. The designation of the Vjosa as a National Park must be one of the priorities of the election campaign. We urge the Albanian politicians to take a stance on this issue and make a #VjosaNationalParkNow @ediramaal

[Kate @JonesintheWild]

Oh yes, another book from @DaveGoulson. He is one prolific dude. If you haven't read any they are entertaining, down-to-earth and absolutely fascinating #NoInsectinction #InsectAandE #ActionforInsects

[Dave Goulson @DaveGoulson]

My new book is out on 1 April :)
You can hear me talking about it on 7 April, price includes the book: https://t.co/euIxCsQ18z

[Shropshire Wildlife Trust @ShropsWildlife]

@Buzz_dont_tweet have launched the ambitious #blines project today. 97% of the UK's flower meadows have now gone and insect numbers have plummeted, but B-lines aims to bring them back. Read more about our involvement here: https://t.co/F9A4OrBAJF

[Buglife @Buzz_dont_tweet]

Neil Strong from @networkrail on how the rail network presents huge opportunities to contribute to the #BLines network by restoring or creating wildflower-rich habitats.
Transport networks can be better managed to improve habitat connectivity for wildlife: https://t.co/lwid1iCdhZ

I've just started at #Buglife as the B-lines Conservation Officer for Shropshire. Incredibly excited to be working on such an amazing project in my home county. Feeling inspired by the launch event today @Buzz_dont_tweet #NoInsectinction #wildflowers

[Buglife @Buzz_dont_tweet]

Thanks to @SteveBackshall for launching our B-Lines conference today!

#BLines is a UK-wide network of insect super highways. Making wild habitats bigger, better and more joined up.

We can all #GetInvolved to create and restore wildflower habitats to help pollinating insects.

[Kate @JonesintheWild]

@WindsweptSarah @_ieuan Amazing. Well done and congratulations Sarah. I look forward to reading it 😊

[Kate @JonesintheWild]

It's extremely rewarding to have your lunch sitting on a piece of wood that you put in a river. Well I mean I organised it going in 😊 Dynamic processes aplenty & bucket loads of lovely habitat features #woodinrivers @StaffsWildlife @TrentCaba

[Kate @JonesintheWild]

To be out & about on a frosty morning. Whilst the cold bit at my fingers & numbed my cheeks, I was thinking about those creatures still asleep. Hedgehog, dormouse bumblebee - wise to stay slumbering a little longer. But up here the birds are starting to sound the wake-up alarm 😊
