Utterly outrageous to see. What is happening to America, it has lost all sence of decency and standards. Shocking footage. What are children to think witnessing this abhorrent, terrorising behaviour?

F**k Farage. He is a liar, a conman, a grifter & a total loser. How many parties has he formed then abandoned? Ukip, The Brexit Party, Reform... An idiot who seeks to destroy Britain not regenerate it. He lied over Brexit is responsible for misleading the public to vote for it. A fool!

They still haven’t found all the missing children from the floods. Why are they more worried about Illinois than about the children in Texas?

Or violently grabbing people off the streets by masked agents in front of innocent babies and toddlers.

In Britain there is a jumped up failed Major telling Senior Generals to make war on it's own country. Not had a Prime Minister shutting down parliment or turning a blind eye to corruption or pardoning violent criminals.

Six weeks ago, I picked up a year-old tawny owl with a broken leg off the main road near our home and dropped him off at our nearest vet.

After a few days, I received one of the most bizarre phone calls I’ve ever had, asking “So when are you coming to pick up your owl?” 🧵

He’d been refusing food and was deteriorating rapidly. I was told his leg could heal with rest but, given his condition, to expect the worst.

After a somewhat panicked discussion, @elidirj.bsky.social and I made the terrifying decision to bring him home with us in a last ditch effort to save him.

Cowlyd - named after Tylluan Cwm Cowlyd, the oldest owl in Welsh lore - had sustained a nasty fracture of the left tibiotarsus with extensive nerve damage, leaving his leg and claw useless. He came to us underweight, profoundly dehydrated and covered in mites.

Things weren’t looking too hopeful.

Armed with tiny doses of analgesia, homemade splints and a freezer full of chicks, I spent the next weeks reading what little literature there is concerning owl rehab, force-feeding him (the only way to initially feed a wild owl), and nursing his leg with 3 daily sessions of improvised owl physio.
