Fantastic to be able to see the female Osprey CJ7 live during the talk on the Osprey program in Poole as part of the #rewilding and reintroduction summit. So wonderful to have these awesome birds on my doorstep. @harbourbirds

Fantastic work being done at the Knepp Estate. #rewilding yields wonderful results and an insight into what our landscape looked like in the past. When left to it's own devices nature can flourish. I can't wait to visit for myself.

Have you had an underwater encounter like this with a #Galapagos sea lion?! While there are strict rules to maintain distances of at least 6 feet from wildlife in the Islands, sometimes *they* break the rules!

Very pleased to announce the publication of my first journal article in @PolicyMarine. Analysing the effectiveness of #VMS at quantifying #fishing activity for near inshore fisheries within an #MPA & how this could help inform #fisheriesmanagement.

There are 1500 active volcanoes on Earth providing vital resources for life to exist. The animals that utilise & survive in these environments are amazing, from Vampire finches to nesting flamingos, land iguanas to bears and giant tortoises.

It is currently legal to import 20kg of shark fin in to the UK, that is equivalent to 7 dead sharks!! Please help a ban on shark fin imports get debated at Parliament by signing the petition
