Taking on Chair of WCMC (working with UN Environment Programme).

An historic moment for Nature recovery in England with a new policy setting out plans for the return of wild Beavers. Licenses will be issued by @NaturalEngland so that we can harness the power of these keystone animals for the many benefits they bring.

Congratulations to our @redlisteco lead, David Keith for winning the @eurekaprizes for Excellence in Botanical Science for his work on developing the world’s first method to catalogue and describe all ecosystems on Earth!
The annual summer meeting of the #Ardtornish & Rahoy Hills ecology board is always a real highlight - with @EdinburghUni @ScotWildlife @JonnyEcology, a powerhouse of expertise and experience. We’re always hugely grateful for their interest and kindness. 🙏
My personal 'tree of the year' - an old wych elm growing in a gorge within the Celtic rainforests of Morvern. It was dripping with dozens of species of moss, liverwort, lichen and filmy ferns. It even had a rowan tree sprouting from it! #tree#treeoftheyear
