@CarlBovisNature Just watched the first episode in Cornwall, brilliant show 😍

Watch this everyone... it's fantastic! 😍 Not seen a show like this since the classic Bill Oddie birdwatching shows of yesteryear! 😍🐦👏

@NiallHarbison Yay Sonny has found his forever family and congratulations to his family on their engagement. What a fabulous video Niall, really lovely 😍

One of the most magical days ever at Happy Doggo Land. Nothing will prepare you for the emotional ending and the sheer joy of it all. Amazing that one little dog like Sonny could bring so many humans together like this for something so magical ❤️

@CarlBovisNature @curlewcalls Such amazing patterns on the feathers 😍

Had to post one of my Curlew photos for #WorldCurlewDay 😍😊🐦 @curlewcalls ❤️

@CarlBovisNature I would say that is a Sparrow but looks like I’m wrong. What is the difference between Sparrow and Dunnock

Who knows what this little singer is called? 🤔🐦

@CarlBovisNature Only in your photos Carl, I’d love to see one for real 😍

When did you last see a Kingfisher? 😍🐦

@NiallHarbison Thank you for sharing this Niall, you’re bloody amazing and a massive inspiration to so many people all over the world ❤️

Sometimes when I'm going to sleep at night, I like to focus really hard and think about what my life used to be like as an alcoholic. I think it's really important not just to visualize what you want in the future, but also to remember where you've come from in the past. That photo is my table that I used to work at every night. I say "work," but Id just have two bottles of wine, four Valiums, and smoke 40 cigarettes while watching YouTube videos and often crying to myself. I was utterly miserable, suffering from depression, anxiety, and just chasing the next drink. People often think being an alcoholic is glamorous and partying and living the high life, but in reality, this is a scene that many people will know very well. The reason I like to remember those days is because I appreciate what I have now. My life is surrounded by dogs, and while the days might be really tough and long and challenging, nothing will ever be as lonely or as sad or as challenging as those days alone at the desk. I share this post not looking for comments or praise for being sober, but rather to show people out there who are currently suffering themselves. I know there's thousands of people who are having a sneaky glass of wine or even a bottle. I know there are people with Valium and Xanax in their pocket, popping one on a constant basis for anxiety. Every home, every workplace, every friend group, every sports team is packed full of people suffering from all sorts of things that we would never even know. You might not get better today, or tomorrow, or even this year. It took me 25 years and probably a thousand attempts to get over my own battles. To be honest, I still struggle with anxiety and depression at times today. But please don't give up. Please remember that you're not alone, and please keep fighting for your own future because better days are out there. If you are unlucky enough to have somebody who suffers in your friend group or family, stick with them, encourage them. I know it's tough, but one day they'll get there. Big love to you all. Happy just to be alive here ❤️

@NiallHarbison That looks so much better, your vet team are absolutely awesome 🤩

We’ve been treating Apollo for months. One of our most complicated cases ever including an escape. The vets who have pulled this off are absolute heroes

@CarlBovisNature Wow that’s amazing 😍

A beautiful Great White Egret on Tealham Moor in Somerset this weekend. 😍😊🐦

@CarlBovisNature I do find a lot of chicks aren’t very attractive 🤭

A Jackdaw guarding a Raven's nest and its chicks on the cliffs of Porthleven a couple of weeks ago! 😅 (The chicks are as big as the Jackdaw!)😯🐦

@CarlBovisNature Haha 😆

This Oystercatcher has got mussels... 💪😉 Taken recently at St Ives in Cornwall. 😊🐦

@CarlBovisNature Carl you make this so difficult cos all your photos are amazing, however I think Proud Robin due to the colours 😍

Hi everyone 😊 Please can you help me?🙏 I can't decide which of these Robin & berries photos I should have as the December pic for my new 2027 Birds calendars. 🤔 1. Proud Robin 🐦 2. Robin drop 🐦 Which would you prefer to see in my calendar?🤔

@CarlBovisNature Glorious sound 😍

My first singing Willow Warbler of the year! 😀😍 Willow Warblers are summer visitors and are almost identical to Chiffchaffs, the best way to tell them apart is when they're singing.. Chiffchaffs repeat their name continuously, whilst Willow Warblers sing like this! 😊🎶🐦

@NiallHarbison This is so beautiful, Maple and her mum have so much love for each other, think someone else suggested getting a photo of Maple for the lovely lady 😍

Little Maple Syrup came In last week. She’d been stabbed in the stomach by a human. We are fixing her physical wounds but she was struggling mentally after the attack. Luckily that all changed when she saw her mum again… (1/7)

@CarlBovisNature She’s got her eye on you Carl 😍

Cute female Stonechat standing tall! 😍 Taken last week at Porthleven in Cornwall. 😊🐦

@CarlBovisNature I’ve no idea to be honest

Cormorant or Shag? 🤔🐦

@CarlBovisNature Wow so cool 😍

Just look at this... I hand fed a Robin this afternoon, but I was very surprised to see it already had a beakful of bugs! 😮😅😍🐦

@NiallHarbison Aaw just what they both needed ❤️

I promise you this will fill your heart full of joy. Nothing captures the positive bond between a human and their dog quite like this. Priceless ❤️

@ProtectTheWild_ @networkrail don’t just explore, just get on with it,the swifts need this NOW

Local campaigners spoke up. 12,800+ of you signed our petition. And now Network Rail is being forced to act. They’re now exploring reopening swift nesting holes that were previously blocked, something that wasn’t even on the table before.

@NiallHarbison Love watching him hiding his biscuits, so cute ❤️

I called him Bambino when I found him on the side of the road because he was so small. After fighting injury and growing up you should see him now ❤️
