Great to get back out to Goldcliff this weekend and have a tundra bean goose 20m from the path - great photos below!

Shocking and deeply disturbing...

There is now at least a £2,000 reward in return for information leading to a successful prosecution of the criminals that destroyed the Osprey nest at Llyn Brenig someone knows. Please spread the word far & wide. @NWWT Llyn Brenig NWP Rural Crime Team/Tîm Troseddau Cefn Gwlad HGC Iolo Williams

Last year’s wasps nest on the shed door has been transformed into this years Wrens nest. Natures recycling in action!

Most of our "recycled" waste is ending up overseas and even burned yet manufacturers get away with "recyclable" on their packaging... This must change. theguardian.com/environment/20…

Wow!

Wally #walrus has been shopping in La Rochelle preparing for the return trip apparently.

Spot the rare thing... #IsleofWight

Meet the "Bagworm Caterpillar". It collects and saws little sticks to construct elaborate spiral log cabins to live in. They build their homes out of silk, sand, soil, and plant materials.

#WalrusWatch UPDATE: After 22 days with no confirmed sightings, we were starting to lose hope of ever seeing the young, wandering walrus again. HOWEVER, we just received notice that a similar-looking walrus was sighted yesterday in ICELAND.. Picture: Hafrún Eiríks / Höfn 1/7

They never disappoint around here...

Think I've just found my absolute favourite new cartoon on the #biodiversity crisis and how exactly it relates to, well, us. (By Steve sack)

It’s not just planting trees that matter. It’s how you manage them. The larch on left is from a monoculture plantation and is 20 years old. The one on the right is from a mixed commercial planting and is just 11 years old. Massive carbon and commercial benefits of doing it right

Ever wondered how much guano can build up in a nature reserve for bats in the UK? Quite a bit... 💩🦇💩

The health of our waterways is not a game of poo-latics. Over 90% of the public want healthy rivers by 2030 and 50% say it's an influential voting issue. Time for all political parties to come together to #RescueBritainsRivers for people and nature 💩 thetimes.co.uk/article/health…

This is why woodland creation schemes must include #naturalregeneration ⬇️. 1000s of planted trees - all dead! While the self-seeded oaks growing between them were thriving! Nat regen = the right tree in the right place & no plastic tubes/pollution!

A fantastic week in sunny Seville SETAC Europe Conference. Great to have the opportunity to present my PhD project, catch up with the ECORISC CDT gang and learn a lot from the 100s of talks/posters! Thanks to @CardiffDA for supporting my attendance.
