🚨⚠️ BASINGSTOKE ANIMAL ABUSERS FACE This evil teen tied string around a cats neck and swung the poor animal repeatedly before slamming it against scaffolding and a brick wall. I have chosen not to post the video. His name is Henry Newey, 18, and he is from Basingstoke, Hampshire. Newey was charged follow an incident, caught on camera, in which a terror-stricken cat with string tied around his neck was shown being dragged by a youth before being swung around and slammed against scaffolding and a brick wall. The heinous act took place on Chivers Close, Basingstoke, at around 6am on Thursday 17 July 2025. The cat, Marshall, was missing for several hours but finally returned home injured and struggling to breathe with the string pulled tightly on his neck. The traumatised family pet is now recovering after receiving veterinary treatment. His attacker Newey has been charged with causing unnecessary suffering to a protected animal. He was remanded in custody to appear at Southampton Magistrates Court. Update: Now convicted - a paltry suspended sentence & ban on owning animals for 5 years.

@gardenbirder1 Big flock of Greylags were put up by a Red Kite over Swineham on Sunday afternoon, seen from the boat. Too far to see any rings though.

Video from this morning of the 6 Glossy Ibis I bumped into at Lytchett Fields. I owe it to the Greenshank which drew my attention towards them. @DorsetBirdClub youtu.be/Z0K_h2qm5iw

All we have to do is paint the St. George's cross inside potholes, and the council will fix them within 24 hours.

Two #WhiteTailedEagle chicks fledged this summer from a nest in Sussex 🦅💚 The parents were released in 2020 & are the same birds that bred in 2023 & 2024. The chicks are tagged to track their progress. Watch this video from nest with sound on! 🔊 @RoyDennisWF @ForestryEngland

A nice juvenile Osprey flyby from this morning.

@SeaEagleEngland @ForestryEngland @RoyDennisWF Great!

A record 3 #WhiteTailedEagle chicks have fledged in the wild in England this summer including the first in Dorset for over 240 years! The chicks were reared by eagles released by @ForestryEngland & @RoyDennisWF in our project to return this lost species🦅 bit.ly/4mwTz53
