Dam repairs have overrun at Brent Reservoir. Natural England are letting Canal & River Trust delay the refill until mid-April. It will LITERALLY kill the breeding season at a major SSSI. 8 months of planning, yet three empty months wasted, a stupidly late start, no contingency 🤬
Was at Brent Reservoir today. Props to Canal & River Trust for riverbank clearance. Lots of fallen trees, debris removed. Trash screen grill also unclogged by Environment AgencySE. Will stop overtopping of effluence, plastics into SSSI woodland. *salutes* (Inspired by Cool Oak) ✊🌿
I was there 🏆 Red-hot WOODCHAT SHRIKE in London. Props to Mark Bravery 🇺🇦 🇵🇸 for the early-morning find and Beddington Farmlands for letting us in. I’ll go back to the studio now 🎵
First of the new tern rafts going in at Brent Reservoir. Someone should be happy. Thanks Canal & River Trust Canal & River Trust London & SE Welsh Harp Conservation Group
Good to see Labour’s Steve Reed MP promising a ‘commitment to revive wetlands’. Maybe he can knock some sense into Barnet Labour Party and get them to block @BarrattPlc planned 200m footbridge that’ll destroy part of Brent Reservoir SSSI. A no-brainer, surely? theguardian.com/environment/ar…
Just seen new Tavares Strachan show at Hayward Gallery. ‘Encyclopedia of Invisibility’ is worth entrance fee alone. Inspirational. Arctic explorer, cosmonaut and conceptual artist is also surely the best ever job description | Southbank Centre
