Was great to be involved with NCL Dove Marine Lab team at #cullercoatsfestival last week. Got to share lots of information about #kelp forests and the LIFE WADER project🌱🐚🌊🔬🧪 Can't believe we had over over 1,000 people come and visit!

Big shout out to 'The Green Team' for all their help with the LIFE WADER opportunistic green seaweed monitoring over the last year. Its been squelchy, sticky, sweaty work in the snow, sun and everything in between - its also been an absolute pleasure🐚🌊 Keep up the good work!

I had a brilliant time in Newcastle presenting at BES Invasion Science about Asian Hornets & an amazing time participating at GB NNSS stakeholder forum. Real privilege to hear about all the amazing work & research around invasive species!

The book has arrived, celebrating rainforest research and education in Brunei Darussalam. We loved contributing to this collaboration, showcasing some of our camera trap & bird research.
