Just lost my job as the site is closing unexpectedly. Anyone know of anywhere looking for junior #ecologists or want a hand with #surveys based around the #Cardiff area? I have reptile + amphib #translocation experience, nesting birds, #ECOW & entomology experience. Please share!

#Barbie pink birds you could see in the UK. A thread 🧵 1. Bullfinch (Pyrrhula pyrrhula) Striking yet easily spooked, listen out for their "pew pew" call to find them.

Good morning world! I'd like to brighten your morning with this absolutely adorable juvenile common lizard.

A very nice stick. Yellow fairy cups!

Scalloped Oak #moth (Crocallis elinguaria). Never seen one of these beauties before!

My first bat survey is about to begin 😍

First bat survey complete - common & soprano pipistrelle's and I was lucky enough to see a Barn owl too!

Red-brown #longhorn #beetle (Stictoleptura rubra)

Can't complain about the #bat survey set up 😍

Help out this beginner #ecologist! Does anyone have a #bat detector they don't need and would happily sell to me secondhand? Trying to get set up subcontracting, but equipment is so expensive! I'm looking for a full spectrum one! 🦇🦇🦇

Thoroughly enjoying spending my evenings bat surveying lately. Encountered so many species already - Common & Soprano Pipistrelles, Serotine, Myotis, Noctules, and Lesser Horseshoes! 🦇🦇🦇

Now offering my services as a freelance early career ecologist based in Cardiff. Need a hand with bat surveys, reptile translocation, ECoW? Get in touch! No access to a vehicle yet but happy to work around that. Please share and get in touch 😁

A super yellow frog! 🐸

Sulphur Tuft 🍄🍄🍄

On a bat survey last night I turned around to glowing eyes looking back at me... I saw my first badger 🦡 ! I'm elated 😁
