The last remaining colony of puffins on the Dorset coast is in danger of being lost altogether, conservationists have warned. Home to about 40 pairs of puffins around 80 years ago, the colony near Dancing Ledge in Purbeck has dwindled to just three pairs in recent times. Although these birds have engaged in courtship behaviour, mating, and nest building in each of the last three years, and even feeding chicks in 2023, they have not raised any fledges in recent years. The National Trust is stepping up its investigation into the decline of the last colony, with motion-sensor trail cameras trying to establish why no chicks are surviving to fledge.

For 135 years we thought we knew the colour of Castell Coch… We were wrong - experts have recently discovered that Castell Coch's famous red has slowly changed over time. Now, thanks to @cadwwales, the castle is returning to its original shade: Castell Coch Red 2025 🎉

There is a devastating scandal brewing in Wales... a teenage boy is among 21 people being tested for HIV and hepatitis after unsterilised surgical tools and equipment were used on patients at an NHS hospital. The boy was only told about the error three weeks after a procedure at the Royal Gwent Hospital in Newport. Hospital bosses knew about the mistake days after it happened, but the family weren't informed until a whistleblower dressed in medical scrubs and a surgical mask delivered a letter to the family home urging them to get in touch. The 15-year-old now faces six months of tests for HIV and hepatitis until he is given the all-clear. dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…
