I’ve been in my garden in Hampshire for the last couple of days . Sunny , plenty of wildflowers . Not a single butterfly . Not one . Nothing . And in the woods a handful of Speckled Woods . I think we are at a point of absolute crisis in our countryside .

This is becoming a big issue all over the place. What can be done to tackle this? A lot of it is down to ignorance, people with cameras (let's call them photographers) who often have little or no knowledge of wildlife and zero fieldcraft. x.com/BC_Suffolk/sta…

Had really good day at #SNSConf2018 it was great to meet so many people who are passionate about protecting our wildlife.

Couldn't make #SNSConf2018 today, but the dessert menu where we ate in the evening had a mammal option.

Well done and thank you to all those who helped to make the #SNSConf2018 run smoothly yesterday. Thank you also to the speakers who provided much excellent insight. Great to see over 170 people attend.

Book onto our #gardening for #hedgehogs workshop 3rd March to learn all about these critters & how to help them!
