Feeding frenzy on Berry Fen this morning as fish are concentrated as the water levels drop. 27 Great White Egret, at least 160 Little Egret, 10 Cattle Egret. #birdphotography #birdwatching #BirdsOfTwitter #TwitterNatureCommunity #birds @Natures_Voice @CambsBirdClub

A fab afternoon at @WildKenHill with @ElyNFFarming talking #regenerativefarming and #rewilding. Amazing to hear an honest narrative on Countryside Stewardship, Landscape Recovery, etc. Lots of food for thought for the cluster! #naturefriendlyfarming #conservation #farmingcluster

Sharing the love for Turtle Doves…and donuts! Very glad to have got some of our Cambs #TurtleDove stakeholders together this morning - despite the rain! Happy you enjoyed it ☺️ Thank you Sophie @RSPBHopeFarm and Eliza @SaveTurtleDoves for the support! 💕

This morning, I witnessed three bittern flights at Cuckoo Fen, #RSPB Ouse Fen, Over, #Cambridgeshire #HappyDays #BBCWildlifePOTD #BBCSpringwatch #Springwatch @Natures_Voice @BBCSpringwatch @CambsBirdClub

Bitterns are putting on a great display @RSPBEngland Ouse Fen, booming and flapping about overhead. These are two of three that I saw at the southern end this morning during a 30 minute walk. A Turtle Dove purring and Bearded Tits pinging too.

If only more of our landscape could look like this for longer periods of time . . . #NoMowSummer #Mowsaic

Roy Dennis. Speaking oh so well. Those of us lucky enough to be involved in nature conservation must 'get on with it'. We oh so seldom do. We talk to long. Create so many stupid complications and summon a plethora of pathetic excuses for slowing down when we should move fast.

Only 3% of our wildflower meadows are left. RT if you agree we should give pollinating insects a fighting chance by growing wildflowers in our gardens, communities, towns and countryside, and by avoiding pesticides and weedkillers 🐝

RT if you’d like to see more green spaces boosting biodiversity, benefitting people’s health, and providing a lifeline for pollinating insects like this inspiring wildflower meadow at @Kings_College at @Cambridge_Uni. Congratulations to all involved. Let’s bring nature back 🐝

@Railraptor @rachel_lennard @CambsBirdClub There are plans to have a footpath to link the south of the reserve with the north. I don’t know what the timeline of that is yet as there is some earthworks to do before it is ready.

@rachel_lennard @HannahBernie @CambsBirdClub Any idea when more of the reserve is planned to open? Really impressive place already

I had two helpings of the Ouse Fen Great Reed Warbler today, morning and afternoon, as it was so local! 😁 Lovely to hear it sing away and it showed frequently. A smashing find by @HannahBernie! @CambsBirdClub

A very pleasant visit to @Natures_Voice reserve at Ouse Fen. Fantastic habitat developing in the wake of sand & gravel extraction, with more to come. Many great birds, with this singing Great Reed Warbler a highlight (sound on to hear snippets of song rarely heard in Britain).

A lovely little story.I spent last week with my friend Hannah on Lesbos teaching her new Birdsong.I paid particular attention to Great Reed saying one day you will find one.Her first day back in the U.K. and bang she finds one on her Reserve @BirdGuides @Natures_Voice

Days like this are fantastic. These guys helped @Natures_Voice and @FarmWildlifeUK to achieve 3500 nature records > 500 surveys > 1000 trees watered host over 700 members of public for our @OpenFarmSunday Contirbuted 4 New turtle dove records  Volunteers are amazing! Thank you!

@bloo_bel @leeinthelakes @WildHaweswater @RSPBEngland Me too!

Nice, nice very nice male Redstart at RSPB Ouse Fen this lunchtime. Super showy. Only my second ever and my first male. Thank you Tom Williams for the find! 😀 @CambsBirdClub

🥳😃

Look how clean it is!!!

Eight new colleagues arrived at Ouse Fen today. Thank you @WickenFenNT @AjayTegala for bringing them over. We hope they will be happy with their new home. Another milestone in the Ouse Fen story. @RSPBEngland

@JohnyatesukJohn I’ve heard one on the south east corner of the settlement lagoon and a volunteer heard one there yesterday evening.

@HannahBernie Hello again. I don't suppose you have any up to date info on reeling Groppers on the reserve or elsewhere. Need for yearlist. Any info appreciated!!! Txs

A very nice and showy Grasshopper Warbler at RSPB Ouse Fen today. One of my #lifer targets for 2022 ticked off with way better views than I had expected 😀 @CambsBirdClub
