@DEBALMER Wow!

After work trip down to Livermere Lake for the Black Terns found earlier this afternoon. We saw 29, giving great views resting and feeding. Great to hear them calling and actively bathing. Barwit flew through.

This photo should be on the front page of every single newspaper in America today.

@Foulshaw2 Fantastic news!

Here's the moment when Blue 35 returned this morning and showed everyone who's boss. She arrives just after YW lands, then sees off 717. Such a joy and a relief to see her. Apparently the traffic was terrible. #FoulshawOspreys

Why aren’t petrol/diesel prices at the pumps going down? Oil prices have been much lower for the last two weeks.

The Coldstream Guards Band performed Black Sabbath's masterpiece Paranoid outside of Buckingham Palace as a tribute to Ozzy Osbourne on the day of his funeral. Don't let anybody tell you this isn't a great country. householddivision.org.uk/musicians

Until today I could buy an off peak train ticket or anytime ticket allowing use with any train operator but now this isn’t available and you are inconveniently tied to travelling with a specific train operator eg Avanti, Northern etc. @SimonCalder

@murphy_about @BSBIbotany @wildflower_hour Well done!

I was pleased to find a previously undiscovered colony of Broad Leaved Helleborine in a wood close to home this morning. Only one was in flower. @BSBIbotany @wildflower_hour

Big Barrel Jellyfish at Sunderland Point today

@David__Osland When it was “free” only 10% of students went to university. Now it’s almost 40%. Even when it was “free” I had to work full time every holiday to pay for books, food, accommodation etc.

University tuition was once free and now costs £9535 a year. Don't think the same couldn't happen to the NHS

@AlexPenn_1 @FI_Obs Wow!

A dream realised!! SCOPS OWL trapped in the Gully @FI_Obs today 🤯

@NigelButt3 Stunning!

Lovely c5 after work Dunnock

Labour are backtracking on a plan to help save birds: by blocking a new rule that would make developers put a £35 nest brick in every new home. They think it'll help win them votes - we need to show it would do the opposite. Sign the petition 38d.gs/zcpv

Brilliant scarecrow at Wray Scarecrow Festival. The theme this year is Circus and the scarecrows on display this year are the best yet.

@murphy_about Well done!

Great to catch another glimpse of this Grasshopper Warbler today. A very skulking bird and usually very difficult to see.

Very long range shot of a Cuckoo today. Upper Hindburn valley.

@murphy_about That’s a ridiculously visible Grasshopper Warbler! Does it not realise it’s supposed to be hidden?!

I found this Grasshopper Warbler today on my local patch.

@polblonde @bphillipsonMP @BBCr4today They don’t fret about this in Sweden. Most of the toilets are unisex and it’s no big deal using them.

I don't want single-sex toilets to be replaced by unisex cubicles @bphillipsonMP. They should be in addition to women's and men's facilities. What you're proposing takes away the preferred option for many women. @BBCr4today

@murphy_about Superb photo!

Pied Flycatcher are arriving in good numbers.
