@Mnewton87 @archnetscot Oh yeah definitely, it's been grand. Aw brilliant, glad to hear!

@Calluna_Reilly @archnetscot I travel to the borders for my stalking, I’m sure your job will open up opportunities though! I recently moved to Marine Scotland in the renewables team. Thoroughly enjoying it

Very grateful to @archnetscot and hosts at Evenstad, Inland Norway Uni for a fab week learning about large predator management, sustainable hunting & monitoring. Lots of great research, land manager talks, visits to Rondane & Dovrefjell... Topped off by the news I passed my DSC1!

@Mnewton87 @archnetscot Yeah think I will down the line. I've mostly been up north so looking to get some more experience in and closer to Glasgow area beforehand. Hope all is well with you! Where are you based now?

@Calluna_Reilly @archnetscot Great stuff. Will you be doing dsc2?

Had a fantastic day at Creag Meagaidh NNR learning about successful wildlife management and woodland regeneration. Now an incredibly biodiverse reserve as a result and framed with beautiful mountain scenery. Just need to think up a good excuse to go back ... @ForthNatureScot

@JessSWhitneyy Comments like that say more about the entitled eejits making them. You are absolutely lovely, don't let them get to you! Retail is hellish.

I am exhausted

I got called 'scum' by a customer at work today, because I needed to follow new company protocol - protocol with which I wholeheartedly disagree with, by the way - and I have never felt more dejected

FINALLY, some good weather on a site visit! An ideal day for Woodland Herbivore Impact Assessments out on the Loch Lomond islands 🌿

Continuing celebration of yesterday's #InternationalDayofForests, our graduate placement Heather looks at the special Loch Lomond Woods and introduces a project which will help protect them. scotlandsnature.blog/2021/03/21/wea… @scotforestry @lomondtrossachs @ForestryLS

Shameless self promotion from this tree hugging hippie of my project's first blog🌱 scotlandsnature.blog/2021/03/21/wea…

Good news! Scotland’s woodland birds appear to have recovered from a short-term decline thought to be caused by the Beast from the East. New stats indicate a recovery for wren & goldcrest with nos up by more than 20%, but elsewhere the picture is mixed: ow.ly/Vukb50D8f9O

Absolutely over the moon to be back in @lomondtrossachs working for @nature_scot 🍃🌳 I've very much missed these moody scenes! Fingers crossed for a bit of sun on the next batch of post-lockdown site visits though...

@erikpaterson @hedgehogsociety Love it. Great for both raising awareness and looking incredibly cute!

@erikpaterson Had a sparrowhawk hit the living room window the other day and found some guts sprinkled across the garden the day before. Wonder if it's the same one?

Have only ever seen the @sceneUofG pine marten up close when it smacked its fluffy backside against the office window last winter. Resorted to camera trapping - only to get much of the same! Lessons learned. Nat Geo-tier footage to follow...

@JohnBryant1404 @SEBiology Thank you! That sounds interesting, would love to have a chat about it.

@Calluna_Reilly @SEBiology I have been to see your poster and have read it properly. My professional interests are in plant molecular biology and #bioethics but I have been a birdwatcher for as long as I can remember. Your poster is great and I hope the work continues well.

Pop down to A7.18 to see my poster about the effects of changing winter weather on bird energetics at @SEBiology Seville! Excited to give my Pecha Kucha talk Thursday! #SEBAMM

@erikpaterson @ChrisGPackham @BBCSpringwatch This was a nice throwback to that lecture in fourth year and has me giggling again.

Listen to the man - he’s telling us the plain simple truth . We must stop pretending that #ClimateCatastrophe isn’t real and that ‘everything will be alright’ . The scientists have given us 12 years and our politicians are fiddling while our world burns bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-479…

@RoselleSmith_ I'm looking to gain a better understanding of the situation with my current project examining the effects of harsh winter weather on small bird energetics. Will be interesting!

@Calluna_Reilly That is sad 😔

With such extreme weather events projected to increase with climate change, it's not looking great for little birds. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-478197…
