(1/) Although it is pretty chilly across much of the UK at the moment, many of our resident bird species are already singing! Listen out for the loud, repeated phrases of Song Thrush, especially on sunny days. @btobirds.bsky.social @jncc.bsky.social @rspbscience.bsky.social #Ornithology

Our first foray on snowshoes today (thanks to Lucy and Wally Wallace for the loan!).

Up around La Foilleuse to Pointe de Savolaire, across to Champarin then down the hill to Morgins.

A fabulous wintry walk in the Alpine sunshine today. Bec de Corbeau from Morgins via the Cheval Blanc. Stunning views of the Dents du Midi and the Grand Muveran. What a brilliant day with Sharon Kennedy.

A nice morning stroll up the Vallon de They alongside the Vieze de Morgins in the crunchy snow with Sharon. A lovely walk through the woods visiting the Eau Rouge along the way. Glad of the micro-crampons today.

It's always a delight to visit the tiny island of Kerrera. Lots of wildlife today, including two white-tailed eagles, a golden eagle, three great northern divers, and an otter. Oh, and if you've never been it's also a stunning place, with an exciting castle, and some interesting geology too

We need to ensure Labour actually follow through for animals. It’s all very well promising change but we need action.
