Long, cold, tiring day today out sampling with this motley crew. 5am start, home by 7pm. Absolutely loved it!😊. Looking forwards to seeing the results of this study. Beautiful part of the world, saw my first Curlew in the flesh and my favourite, the Upland Summer Mayfly!

Heading for another busy one! Brilliant to have so many communities around Scotland learning about and supporting their local rivers. Gives me so much hope. #healthyrivers #communitycitizenscience #guardiansofourrivers

Running a training session today and before we arrived the group had installed a “special Buglife stile” so we could access the site 😍. So impressed! #mademyday

Out sampling the river yesterday and stumbled across this beauty. There were several occupying the bank. Andrena clarkella. Thanks Liam Olds for confirmation.

Great day out on the river! Nice to be able to support our new climate hub with their second launch event. Our wee bug tank was a big hit ☺️. Scot Communities CAN

Every now and then you stumble across an article that inspires you to keep going..

Today, after volunteering with my local #communitycitizenscience group every month for the last 6 years. I got it. 💯❤️. Despite finding a hole in both my waders and the gloves 🥶. Give it a go 😊. #riverhealth #communityhealth #planethealth
