To all the people freaking out about this little spider... it was about 1cm long (ever heard of close-up photography 🤣) and completely harmless, so nothing to be scared of!

Can't believe what I'm hearing. Swift bricks aren't even controversial. They're a cheap, easy way to restore our dwindling bird population. Yet neither Tory Minister, nor Lab opposition, will commit to make them mandatory. What planet are they on?? @Natures_Voice @WriterHannahBT

Bit of a shaky video of Common Dolphins in the Solent this evening! Very exciting 🐬🐬🐬

@MartinWood14 @EdJBenn Lol, maybe individual families but not the whole lot!

Today I saw the magnificent Swallowtail, the last British butterfly I had left to see. Plenty of Norfolk Hawkers around too.

Lots going on at Titchfield Haven this morning including a calling Cuckoo, displaying Common Terns and Avocets close to Meon Shore hide.

[Surfers Against Sewage @sascampaigns]

Water companies are dumping sewage in our rivers & seas 1000s of times a day. The ❌ red alerts ❌ on the Safer Seas and Rivers Service app make sure they can't hide. But the app needs urgent funds.

Sand Mason Worms at low tide. Amazing to think these tubes are up to 45cm long and these are just the tops!
