Seems like a good year for yellow rattle in our hay meadows.@BBOWT

A good year for cowslips at Chimney Meadows Nature Reserve. @BBOWT

A lovely magpie fungi.

A lovely evening on the Thames Path at Chimney Meadows nature reserve, having seen a kingfisher, listening to the cetti's warbler and a gang of long tailed tits feeding along the hedge, wonderful. @BBOWT @ThamesPathNT

Guess which bridge this is on the #ThamesPath
Clue: it's over an engineered section of the River Thames so it looks more like a canal than the natural river.

Blackthorn in flower in December.

A slighter harder quiz today! Can you guess these scrambled up birds? #TuesdayThoughts #quiz #BirdQuiz

#ThamesPath flooded in Oxford, and other parts of #Oxfordshire including @BBOWT Chimney Meadows nature reserve.
Don't try to cycle or walk through the water; the current is flowing fast and it's dangerous. Divert, don't drown!
#flooding

[Martyn Lane @MartynLane2]

@ThamesPathNT @BBOWT A lot of the Thames path and other paths on the nature reserve are under water and maybe for a while yet.

The rain has stopped for a few minutes and the blue tits and great tits are making the most of it, at a very wet Chimney Meadows.@BBOWT

Among pinnipeds, the Stellar sea lion is inferior in size only to the walrus and the two species of elephant seals.

Just appalling! One of the most important wildlife sites in North Bucks. Home to all five British hairstreak butterfly species. Best place for bitterns for many miles.

We are launching a nature reserves photography competition! We know you all love taking gorgeous photos - and we want to see them! 📷
We are looking for photos of places and landscapes from anytime of year taken at Wildlife Trust nature reserves 💚🌳>>https://t.co/qplapuX7Q6

Floodplain meadows doing a wonderful job of holding back flood waters at Duxford old river and Chimney Meadows Nature Reserve. What a great natural service they do in preventing flooding further down stream. #bbowt

[Martyn Lane @MartynLane2]

Lovely to see Devil’s-bit scabious and Grass-of-Parnassus still in flower at Parsonage Moor Nature reserve.

We really MUST stop digging peat out of the ground for gardening. Peat bogs are huge stores of carbon, and internationally rare habitats. It is madness. Please sign this petition, and RT
