The crest-tailed mulgara casually went into hiding for a century then popped up in the sand dunes of New South Wales. Hopefully we'll get a few more stories like this! https://t.co/cb4ksqnB8J

Saw both the largest and the smallest mosses I've ever seen, side by side. Thanks @floodenheim for the amazing samples! @Britnatureguide @BSBIbotany @readingbotany

The #GulfofMexico was the first reported ocean dead zone in the 1960s. Today, the gulf is still affected by eutrophication & 883 other coastal areas have been added to the list of dead zones. ☠️🌊

So who else knew there used to be 'marsupial lions'? Because it's news to me! A 23kg species was discovered last year but we already knew about a 130kg species from 30000 years ago. https://t.co/d1dFNhk89y

Look at this thing! Nearly 5 years of animal study and there's still crazy animals I've never heard of, just chilling in the shallow waters.

Here’s is a throwback of a beautiful Polka Dot Batfish at the Blue Heron Bridge in Florida captured by @thebriansiegel 🎥🤙🏽

It may be cold out but a quick moss collection means plenty of fun back in the warmth. I always appreciate the variation in mosses, I used to think they were just....moss. @Britnatureguide @BSBIbotany @nationaltrust @WoodlandTrust

Would you just look at that cheeky face?! Meet Flo, one of many fantastic residents at the British Wildlife Centre in Lingfield. More photos incoming! @BWCtweets @BBOWT @Britnatureguide

Even an eXtreme botanist like @drmgoeswild can't hide his excitement at finding a Hazel Dormouse (Muscardinus avellanarius) in @BasildonParkNT. @sally_rewilding @NCooten

[Jack Wykes-Anderson @TotallyNotaBug]

Incredible and adorable find at @BasildonParkNT with Simon Boulter @RSKEcology. Everyone thought it was too late in the year but hidden in a converted wren nest... #SISS @Britnatureguide @NatureUK @nationaltrust @WoodlandTrust @BBOWT @WildlifeMag

[Jack Wykes-Anderson @TotallyNotaBug]

I'm always amazed by what selective breeding can do, but I didn't even know these all came from the same plant! Find out more from @KewScience here: https://t.co/ol8DoWL9Y6

Meanwhile in Australia, thousands of school children in every state took to the streets to protest the innaction of politicians towards climate change. This is just the beginning. #bethechange

Spent the day at @HawkConservancy in Hampshire learning about the wonderful birds they have rescued and given a loving new home to. Definitely worth a visit! @_BTO @Natures_Voice @birdsofprey_uk @BirdsofPreyCO https://t.co/TiRvBidMju
