Found out about ethical clothing company @silverstickuk thanks to a recent #rewilding read by @Birder_Griffon - got these lovely socks for my dad’s Christmas gift, with some of the proceeds going to rewilding projects. I don’t normally buy new clothing but this was an exception!
Spotted! 👀
A pair of @mattsewell Hawfinch’s flying off to a customer today. A perfect Springtime purchase. The birdsong is so uplifting at this time of year. The nightingales are back here in Sussex, you can hear them at @kneppwilding, where Silverstick is stocked in the shop.
More #Swift sightings in #Lewes this morning! Sue was overjoyed to see her first one at the top of St. Swithuns Lane, where Kevin is almost sure he saw a nest exit last night. And, in Rotten Row, Jenny saw a party of three heading towards St. Anne's Church.
Normally I fill Tree Sparrow feeders up in the dark because it is the only time I can do it. At the weekend I got to fill some feeders in daylight. I had 15 minutes spare and there was even enough light to take a few quick photos. Tree Sparrows are worth saving aren't they!
Superpod of up to 500 Common #Dolphins sighted 10 miles off #Eastbourne, December 6th, by Jake Davison. Superpods usually form when there is high prey abundance in this case pelagic fish, which are also the target for the 9 #supertrawlers in the channel. #dolphinsarentdiscard
There is always a shred of hope.
There is always a kernel of hope.
There is always a glimmer of hope.
Live in hope, keep hope alive and remember there's always hope at the end of that rope.
🚨 Tomorrow we're taking sewage to the courts 🚨
Rivers across the country are dying BUT current government plans look set to allow raw sewage to flow until at least 2050 👎
Act now to #StopTheSewage 👇

It should be noted, however, that Wistman's Wood is presently only a paltry 3 hectares (7.5 acres in area), and, done right, its size would be expanded by a factor of 10 at least.
Nonetheless, a huge well done to @guyshrubsole, @LostRainforests + @wildcardrewild on this success!
@Birder_Griffon hugging an amazing tree which he will give you low down on. Great day with Ian Parsons visiting landowner in the county that can’t do Cider but can do Cream. @tern09@Hawkandowluk@MrJonathanMock@camelbirder@Kernowringer Zoom in on his back to reveal message
So much bird song 🎵 on the South Downs at the moment. So immersive and relaxing to listen to. Here’s one of our own bird embroideries…the Tree Sparrow by Matt Sewell.
