Some of our trees are extra special here on our farmland. This one is called the kissing tree because it’s actually two trees who have grown together over the centuries. A beech and an oak. This is my idea of what love looks like

@LukeAvia You aren’t a Villa fan, then. Most of us have experienced far worse than this. Embarrassing.

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

Friends! You saw yesterday how much Ron loves Baby Dog. They are constantly playing… and Ron manages to outsmart Baby Dog most of the time. The thing is, Baby Dog can’t fit inside the Donut. It’s his NEMESIS! Happy Friday! 🧡🤎 #cats #dogs

@TheFigen_ This keeps coming round and it's very upsetting to see the sick hedgehog being harassed by the crow.

@AVFCStatto It's ruined my weekend, but not my whole life. Hoping that doesn't happen on Thursday.

Some of the stuff I have seen today is wild. The performance was poor, but people acting like the loss is the end of the world. We are in a European semi-final, and comfy top 5 in the Premier League with 4 games to go. Some of the reaction is embarrassing.

President Trump: “You have to remember, we have 45,000 troops in Japan, 45,000 in South Korea, and 50,000 in Germany.” We defend all these countries, and then I ask them: “Do you have any minesweepers?” They say, “Well, would it be possible for us not to get involved?”

A brave stag ran the gauntlet today to escape the Quantock Staghounds after a brutal 3 hour chase. A rider was off his horse and approaching the hiding stag to shoot him, when he jumped up and made a heroic run for his life to a LACS sanctuary as riders tried to block him

Today's drama: after approximately a year of trying to capture this feral tomcat who has been hanging around our place, yesterday I finally outsmarted him. He is, as you can see, thrilled. This morning I am taking him to the vet so he can be scanned for a microchip and given a health check. Hopefully, in due course, he can also be neutered. No wonder he looks so happy.

So Tony Juniper of Natural England wants to kill badgers and foxes to protect ground nesting birds. Yet NE haven't created any new SSSIs since 2023. Some on waiting list now have planning approval to be built on including 1 on Thames estuary. Lot on ground nesting birds there.

@VillaLeeAV @_Afcbanks I love all (my fellow) Villa fans explaining this to the Gooners. Sadly, we aren't in the mix for 1st place - this year. Up the Villa 😁

@JohnSimpsonNews Yes, he seems decent, thoughtful and pretty intelligent, but not sufficiently so that he could see that he wasn't ready for the poison chalice of Chelsea; and what was all that 'respecting the ball' nonsense?

I’m sad for Liam Rosenior, who’s just been sacked as Chelsea’s manager: he’s a decent, thoughtful and intelligent man. The problem lies with the owners, who don’t understand English football sufficiently and are wasting ludicrous amounts of money on a wrongheaded experiment.

Give A Shit About Nature
Give A Shit About Nature@giveashitnature·
A "dove release" at a wedding or funeral is a death sentence for the birds. The white "doves" sold for releases aren't doves. They're domestic pigeons bred to be small and white, and they have no survival skills outside a coop. DIY releasers often buy white Ringneck Doves or King Pigeons, which have zero ability to navigate home. Nearly all of them die. Even professional releases with trained homing pigeons kill birds. Hawks take them in the air. Cars hit them when they land exhausted. They collide with windows. They get lost and starve. Rehabbers pull them in with broken wings, broken legs, raging trichomoniasis, and bodies so emaciated the birds can barely stand. One rehabber described treating a white pigeon from a release whose throat infection had hardened so completely it distorted the shape of his skull. There is no version of this tradition where the birds "fly away and live happily ever after." That's the marketing story. The reality is that you paid to traumatize and usually kill a domestic animal for a 15-second photo moment. If someone you know is planning a dove release for a wedding, funeral, or celebration, tell them. Bubbles, sparklers, dried flower petals, or ribbon throws all photograph beautifully and don't kill anything. The birds are not props, they are live animals that need proper care.

@xavierjp__ I'm quite a lot older than her and would not use being old as an excuse for racism or poor dog control, or anything really. I hope your sister is ok. 🥺

@DazHaleWM Andy Lochhead bulldozed us out of Division 3. Early Andy Gray was incredible, but my favourite striker will always be Peter Withe. No one else led the line like him. ❤️

He has scored more goals for #AVFC than any other player in the last 66 years . So , Villa fans , is Ollie Watkins the best striker you’ve seen at the club ? If not …..who is ?

Another magical encounter with an extraordinary bird today. This beautiful little goldcrest came to say hello. It’s Europe’s smallest bird weighing a little less than a 20p coin and yet each year it manages to cross the North Sea. It may be small but it has the heart of a lion!
