@kovahs_art Hi Katie. Great art as usual. Hope you are well?

@Hertsbirder @Hertsbirds Will probably check again today.

@wildTony2 @Hertsbirds In the large garden. It never left that area while I was there

My first Spotted Flycatcher of the year today at Wallington church @Hertsbirds

@Hertsbirder @Hertsbirds Where did you watch from. I looked over the gate and from the Churchyard too but no luck today. Mind you, the trees are much more vegetated now

@MeganMcCubbin @ChrisGPackham You both have my support. I hope the haters get a proper sentence that fits the crime. Something they will remember for their entire life.

The penultimate update on @ChrisGPackham trial which ended on Thursday. The lawyers at Leigh Day were amazing… just got to wait for the judgement! Thanks to everyone’s who has sent messages of support to him 💚

My stepdad @ChrisGPackham has bared the brunt of obsessive bullies who’ve burnt down his gates, thrown dead animals into his garden + sent death threats. They spread lies and hate because he stands up for wildlife. I stand by him wholeheartedly Pls share crowdjustice.com/case/support-c…

A personal message about the dire effects of online abuse and the need to strengthen laws to better protect ourselves from dangerous hate terrorism . My friend @RuthTingay , a victim herself due to her work with @RaptorPersUK has kindly set up this @CrowdJustice appeal crowdjustice.com/case/support-c…

@gonebirdin @Hertsbirds Thanks

@wildTony2 @Hertsbirds From the A505 take road to Sandon, go past dog kennals on your right, down the hill & they are in the field immediately on the left toward the hedge further along

12 Wheatear at bottom of Deadmans hill nr Sandon #hertsbirds @hertsbirds

@Whicheloe Greater bird's-foot-trefoil to be precise, rather than common bird's-foot-trefoil.

Not seen this species before (on chalk grassland) - any ideas Twitter peeps?

@Whicheloe Like to think my Phase I report from a few years ago helped to drive the thoughts about making improvements. I certainly provided some recommendations but it is good to see areas that might have been originally thought to have to remain the same being made better for wildlife.

200% agree - very exciting transformation happening here and like the fact that the substrate seems to be playing a big role ☺️🤔🤔🤔

Tomorrow (10th Nov) @NaturalEngland will decide on granting legal protection for the Swanscombe Peninsular, a Kent wildlife haven under threat. @TonyJuniper please confirm the SSSI designation & #SaveSwanscombe! @Kentwildlife @RSPBEngland @CPREKent @sspcampaign

@Alan_Taffinder @sophiejbjones If we don't do something quick, the dark ages as you call them or probably much worse will be on us within at least 3 generations or less. The technologies to replace fossil fuel burning are here now but they need to be implemented world wide rapidly rather than slowly.

@sophiejbjones If these 'young legends' were in charge, we would be living in the dark ages again. They want 'action' but never specify what action... I want a sustainable economy, with a phase out of fossil fuels, and an end to deforestation. But we have to be realistic about timeframes.

If only this lot of young legends were in charge...

@SaveLeaMarshes @Walthamsteve Agree, super damaging to ground invertebrates and removes a key food source for many soil invertebrates.

A thousand times this. Noisy, costly and petrol powered, these need to be scrapped asap! #LeavesAreNotLitter

Great to review the success of #greenroofs as part of monitoring surveys with @wildTony2 for @argent at @kingscrossN1C - @WildLondon

Goid morning from the New Forest. It's not all Forest!

@Whicheloe @ecoschemes I think academics and applied ecologists don't communicate enough and both typically put their findings in different journals and other docs and rarely look at the other parties findings as a consequence.

Is it just me that finds scientific research completely abstract and irrelevant to applied ecology in the UK? #hopeImWrong @ecoschemes

@RonBaber Lesser stag beetle

@Whicheloe And the tree along with cutting actually eventually causes the grassland underneath to become bare ground.

Mounds with trees...... If you are a landscape architect.... Note how dull and ecologically barren this is as a design choice. #thinkdifferent
