Sayers ole Meadow was an arable field 17 years ago. It is now a mega diverse, structurally complex, hay meadow full of all sorts of locally rare plants. No seeding. Just abandonment & annual August mowing. A great example of nature-led recovery BSBI: Botanical Society of Britain & Ireland Floodplain Meadows Partnership

Very important paper led by Prof. Julian R. Thompson predicting how climate change will affect floodplain wetland hydrology, soil moisture & associated plants. It focuses on a v. well studied middle @riverglaven site subjected to flood embankment removal Norfolk Rivers Trust The Wild Trout Trust

A great day yesterday with the brill Norfolk Flora Group in an upper Glaven Conservation patch associated with the Cromer ridge. All sorts of species found & a great finish in N. Norfolk's most highly rated pub Red Hart @Jo_the_botanist

Remember that nutrient neutrality is not *ecological effects of nutrients neutrality*. With time, even if nutrient concentrations are constant, there will be ecological decline in waters. Reductions in nutrient concentrations are urgently needed

A beautiful shallow upper River Glaven lake received a massive & damaging wash off of silt from the VolkerFitzpatrick Ørsted UK cable works today. This fine sediment will move downstream harming endangered white-clawed crayfish & much else. We need ACTION NOW EnvAgencyAnglia

The results of last nights torrential rain. Our meadow now has a blanket of silt and goodness knows what from the fields, roads and Holt Sewage Works. We work hard to manage this meadow ☹️🦋🐛🕷️🦗🐝🦇🌱🌼 Anglian Water Norfolk Rivers Trust Glaven Conservation Glaven Eel

The formerly wonderful, near pristine Selbrigg Pond Glaven Conservation today after a big sediment runoff event associated with the VolkerFitzpatrick Ørsted Ørsted UK works last week. The great loves of my life are being destroyed. This lake will take a long time to recover. ANSWERS?

1/2: The River Glaven is being destroyed by sediment runoff from the VolkerFitzpatrick Ørsted UK Ørsted cable works. The river, its flood meadows & lakes are all smothered in soil from last Tuesday. We don't expect our rare white-clawed crayfish to have survived EnvAgencyAnglia

Any comment Ørsted UK Ørsted VolkerFitzpatrick? An ecological disaster. We have surveyed every waterbody in this catchment & we will document the destruction you have caused

Our poor river is receiving tons of topsoil again. Very sad. harrierman🇧🇼

Dear Ørsted Ørsted UK VolkerFitzpatrick, You have destroyed our river & all associated lakes. Please respond & Please EnvAgencyAnglia take the strongest actions possible to get this under control. This is an ecological disaster. All our work over many years now undone.

The river has been too deep below the mill at Glandford to check the habitat traps but I was able to get there in chest waders this morning to find two healthy elvers on their way upstream. ⁦Glaven Eel⁩ ⁦Glaven Conservation⁩
