Looking forward to Common Ground #AppleDay tomorrow? The #Orchard Garden will be a ‘gene bank’ for 37 endangered north west cultivars, like this beauty, the Burr Knot. We’ll also be sharing the #apple love & giving 200 trees to #community organisations across the region

Harvey Keitel as Auggie Wren tells William Hurt "the best Christmas story you ever heard" in SMOKE (Wayne Wang, 1995). Script by Paul Auster. Straight after watching the film I went out and bought The New York Trilogy and The Music of Chance. youtube.com/watch?v=_kCUbw…

Two welcome nest entries at St. Anne's Church, and one #Swift entry at 98 Western Road. A return to one of the nests in Abinger Place, makes 53 nests discovered in #Lewes so far. Lovely picture of a Swift resting in the nest from the wonderful Jonathan Pomroy, Wildlife Artist.

A spectrogram of swift calls recorded in Bridport by sound artist Ezra Grey. The X axis is time, Y is frequency. Ezra is part of #BridportSwiftTown collective of artists creating work to celebrate these wonderful but endangered birds.

Is scaffolding blocking access to a known swift nesting site? 📳 THE LAW IS ON YOUR SIDE 📳 Film it. Note the exact location (OS grid ref/W3W) 📳 Ring 101 and ask to speak to a Wildlife Crime Officer 📳 Ask for an incident number so it's logged

A swift leaving its nest under the eves of the Decorator's Centre in Bridport, opposite the Waitrose car park. There's another nest on the opposite side, both of them small gaps between the timber truss & stone wall. It's the imperfections of any building that let nature in.
