Disappointing to see @UKLabour @AngelaRayner @Keir_Starmer try and blame wildlife and environmental protections for the lack of housing. Did you think using Boris Johnson’s attack lines would be a good look?

@WriterHannahBT “Losing followers big time which is so sad as this platform hasn’t been toxic to me.” But it is toxic to many, which is why I’m leaving. To stay here is to support a toxic culture, either by providing content or traffic.

Losing followers big time which is so sad as this platform hasn’t been toxic to me. It’s been a platform that connects fellow nature lovers, helped me raise awareness with politicians and raised my voice for birds.

Many bat species frequently roost in buildings. For this reason buildings can play a very important part in their conservation. You can find out more about bats in buildings at the @_BCT_ website below: bats.org.uk/about-bats/whe… #BatWeek 📽️ Yorkshire Dales Bat Project

Ever wondered how to capture the details of a #bat skull? 📸🦇 Here's how I do it! 📢Museum collections can be very important in today's research (taxonomy, systematis & bat conservation) #BatWeek #BatAppreciationMonth #macrophotography #museum #skull #BatConservation #taxonomy

Bats hibernate over winter, and as we move into November some will start their winter sleep as temperatures begin to drop. Many of the cave systems and even old limekilns in the #YorkshireDales are important hibernation sites for bats. #BatWeek 📸 Yorkshire Dales Bat Project

Sudden arrival of Brown Long Eared bats at the swarming site, seems late for swarming but then it’s been a strange year weather wise.
