Treecreepers will feed on insects hidden in the pine tree bark using their sharp, probing beak. Their pale brown feathers camouflage them perfectly against the bark as they spiral up and down branches. #Winterwatch Watch them snooze ๐Ÿ‘‰bbc.in/2O0STav

Love this from BBC Springwatch Immersing yourself in the natural world could be the best remedy for anxiety and mental health whilst benefiting wildlife around us such as creating new habitat via planting, conducting wildlife surveys, or simply taking a coastal walk ๐ŸŒŠ

MT Perfectly put by Dr Pamela Styles ~ even a plant on your desk can bring that connection to nature inside ๐ŸŒฑ You can even take small cuttings and give them to your colleagues as a green gift ๐ŸŒท#C4C10DoT #Comm4Cons

I think this is a brilliant idea The Wildlife Trusts! I was lucky enough to have my primary school surrounded by green space and also felt my learning was amplified being in that environment. ๐ŸŒฑ #conservationeducation #learninganddevelopment #scienceinschools #Comms4cons! #C4C10DoT

Awesome initiative Chester Zoo Learning! We had a sad stat in our lecture today from a study from King's College London that only 10% of children play outside, we definitely need to inspire our younger generations! #conservationeducation #learning #learninganddevelopment #protectnature

I know the weather has been absolute pants recently, but I love my daily walk across the fields with the dogs - its like time slows and you can fully take in the bigger world around you. We all need a bit of vitamin N (for nature ๐Ÿ˜๐ŸŒฑ) #natureisthebestmedicine #getoutdoors

#DYK Swifts have declined by 57% in the last 20 years! This is mainly due to being excluded from nest sites, when older properties are renovated. Good news - you can help! Put up special swift boxes; almost any two or more storey house is suitable. #SwiftAwarenessWeek
