These are the people who blocked the swift brick amendment last night. 102 Labour Peers thanks to the rather extreme 3 line whip which just goes to show how much #Labour do NOT want to help nature let alone swifts. Normally a 3 line whip is used for fairly extreme amendments.

Bird lovers across the UK have been left shocked after the Internet-famous peregrine falcon chicks were poisoned. The chicks started their journey high up on the Worcester Cathedral, far away from human and most animal threats on the ground. Three chicks hatched in the nest

Tragic news; The Icelandic gyrfalcon population has been hit hard by the ongoing wave of avian influenza in recent years. Once numbering around 2,000 birds, the population has now collapsed to roughly 500 individuals, according to Ólafur Karl Nielsen, ornithologist and Iceland’s

An analysis of the Amazon’s lakes found that a "simultaneous heat wave and severe drought" killed masses of river dolphins and fish in 2023, with lake temps hitting 41°C. The Amazon isn’t just burning, it’s boiling.
