@severnrover Great shots Vic and good to see you there. What a day!

Willow Emerald at Orchard Pools, Severn Beach today. Brilliant find by @severnrover . And while there I found a Caspian Tern! Double tick.

[Matt Plenty @MattPlenty]

@severnrover Brilliant! Well spotted Vic. I've never seen Willow Emerald. Will have a look there tomorrow. Cheers

Democracy is over.

We oppose the proscribing of direct action groups as “terrorist organisations”.

We will not be deterred or intimidated by state violence, arrests, or house raids. We will continue to oppose Israel’s genocide, and UK complicity in it.

@severnrover Thanks very much Vic. I will try again this week. Cheers

⚡️🇬🇧JUST IN:

This afternoon, 27 protesters including a priest, an emeritus professor, and health workers were arrested under terrorism laws in London’s Parliament Square for peacefully holding signs opposing genocide and the UK’s ban on Palestine Action.

@Mikepastycarr @savebutterflies Brilliant Mike. I love back-lit butterfly photos like this and have taken lots myself.

@NanceSw It was you who got me into Joni Mitchell. Thank you for that. My all time favourite artist. This clip is just wonderful

@WWTworldwide Loving the Bewicks swan blog updates. Could more info about ring numbers and bill patterns be added to the blog/ displayed in the hide please to help visitors identify and connect with individual birds of this wonderful species?

[Matt Plenty @MattPlenty]

@WWTworldwide It would be fantastic if the current bill patterns and ring numbers of Bewicks swan could be shared with visitors to Slimbridge please?? I have been making some progress with this. The brilliantly knowledgeable @SteveHeaven is to be praised for his superb work.

Sickening. What vile vile people. You unfortunately I can’t go and protests against the Berkeley Hunt this year but I’m sure the like minded locals will be there. Sadly we are normally in a minority. So if you free get yourself to Thornbury high street on Boxing Day.

Another new track from Lapwing65. Could be my favourite one we have done.

[Lapwing65 @DPipe65]

Mechanical Man. New song from Lapwing65. Inspired by AI debate but an organic composition.

@Mikepastycarr @savebutterflies The most Holly Blues this year I have ever seen in Gloucestershire. Also lots in west Wales last week. Seem to be having a bumper year. Great numbers of Peacock butterflies in last couple of weeks too.

@GlosterBirder @TSbirding @WWTSlimbridge @slimbridge_wild @gloswildlife @BTO_GLOS @GlosBirds I agree Mike. Awful to inflict this on a bird.
