I would think the usual reason, and that is making more money is the #priority for #developers.

Why is @TaylorWimpey felling mature & veteran #trees in #Newcastle during bird nesting season? #Bats roost in these #trees. Why has @NewcastleCC allowed such widespread ecological destruction of #trees, #woodlands, hedgerows & #wildlife?

@simongarrard2 @JenniGoldsmith As an angler you will no doubt be witnessing the serious decline of many species. The #freshwater in lakes and #rivers in the UK is very often seriously polluted and so too are coastal waters. Often with #sewage, as well as agricultural runoff and #pesticides.

@bardofely @JenniGoldsmith As a long term angler I've noticed it . Im sure other people must have .

I remember when #Starlings were so common small flocks would arrive in a back garden if you threw some scraps out for the #birds. They are amazing birds that can sing so well.
Richard Negus@TrooperSnooks
The starling population has declined by 82% from 1970 to today. The causes include- loss of food/reduced grassland, urbanisation/reduced juvenile survival/modern building design etc. We could reverse this, but the starling isn't seen as sexy or charismatic. Poor ol' things.

This- not only does it kill the bees and insects but we ourselves use the oil in our food chain! It’s a total disgrace!

@Carolemoonbeam I know large amounts of the countryside are covered with fields of that crop so that's a lot of acres of plants that can kill. #pesticides #insecticides

@Carolemoonbeam Many vegetable #cookingoils are not good for our #health despite what people may think. #Pesticide residues are a problem. @DaveGoulson is included in this report. sustainablefoodtrust.org/news-views/neo…

@simongarrard2 @JenniGoldsmith Well, #birds need food and #insects are the food of many birds. If the insects are declining fast the birds will follow.

@bardofely @JenniGoldsmith Our birdlife like our insect life is in serious trouble . The worry is does anyone in Goverment care . Its the start of some very grim problems . Perhaps all these kids who have taken up bird watching, and good for them should ask their MPs what they are going to do .

@snapgreenben Thanks, Ben! There were several Meadow Browns, a #PaintedLady, and some species of skipper #butterfly all feeding on a group of Field Scabious flowers. Also large numbers of some species of red mite on the flowers.

I agree this is very important. The #Neonicotinoid #insecticides are invisible, long-lasting and KILL so many insects.

Very Important Message!! Do NOT, and I repeat do not buy plants treated with Neonicotinoids. Bees take the pollen back to the hive and feed it to the brood. This is a number one cause of the colony collapse. It's important to NOT buy these plants! Make sure to share this post!

@2BJDJ This is a massive problem! People do not realise they are killing #bees and other #pollinators when they buy pretty flowers for their gardens, if the plants they buy are contaminated with #Neonicotinoids.
English
@JenniGoldsmith Yes, like #housesparrows and #swift, starlings were once a bird that used many houses as places to nest. When I was a boy both those other species were as common as the starlings. All are now in a serious decline.

this - and our Government in the UK allows it to be sprayed on oil seed rape etc., so imagine the huge assault on insects that is actually going on. Hardly a bee around despite warm conditions and nectar rich flowers.

@bardofely I have a couple of dozen or more frequenting my back garden. They nest in my loft each year.
My car is always covered in poo & I have to refill the bird baths twice a day cos they group bathe, but I wouldn't change things! 😀

Reposting because this is so important. Litter kills #wildlife! btw, I am a member of @savethefrogs!

I found these little chaps in a plastic container thrown into a roadside ditch! Bottles, jars, containers etc. can be lethal to wildlife, especially amphibians and small mammals. It was luckily discarded into a cool, damp ditch, not in full sun. Bin it. Conservation@althorp.com

This huge mess of cans and Vodka/Brandy bottles were ALL in the gap between the low wall and fence. They sit on the wall, drink then stuff the empties into the gap.

BREAKING: The first 300 Ridglan beagles touched grass for the first time today.
They stepped outside and looked up at the sun.
Many are playful. Some are scared. All are learning the world can be safe.
Today, they are free.

@bardofely Your lens perfectly froze that wingbeat! These meadow dwellers are such vital pollinators. I love seeing biodiversity thrive.

Here in #Portugal where I live there are plenty of Meadow Brown #butterflies around at the moment. #borboletas
