The amphibian population in my garden have this beauty to contend with. Again, the joy lifting an abandoned sheet of metal can yield! #grasssnakes

Careful positioning of a sheet of metal yields close encounters of the slow worm kind.. #slowworms

BBOWT/BC ran a 'surveying for Hairstreaks course' yesterday with a practice UV light search for Black Hairstreak larvae in the evening. The surveys will form part of BBOWTs exciting RBOR project. An interesting and informative day, thank you to all who organised.

And now we've passed 101,000 signatures - thank you. A month to go and we'll be happy to see the signatures mount but we probably won't be promoting it quite as hard from now on 😀

I am thrilled you’re so close!

The @wildjustice.bsky.social petition to ban driven grouse shooting has passed 97,000 signatures thanks to you. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

Even I am fairly confident that we'll get 100,000 signatures, triggering a Westminster parliament debate, by 22 May. 22 April would be even better!

If you are a UK citzen living abroad you can still sign petitions like this one. Plz have a look at this one. #australia #spain #france #usa #canada #portugal #greece #newzealand #cyprus #india #ireland #netherlands #germany #belgium #italy #greece #poland

We're 95% of the way to 100,000 signatures on our petition, which means we get a ban on driven grouse shooting debated in parliament.

Only 5k to go! Please share & sign: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

I hope she asks the celebrities who profess to love nature if they use/sanction leaf blowers or/and mowers all over their own gardens. If more celebrities posted to prove they’re not NIMBYs, more people may follow suit. Sorry Brigit, LBs on all sides here, it’s been tough to endure. #leavetheleaves

Retail outlets attached to wildlife sites have always been a trigger for me. Frustrating to read ‘even those that make a profit’ implying that a lot don’t meaning that the plastic/non recyclable nonsense they often sell that is headed for landfill isn’t even making them any money. And breathe..
