With ground-nesting bird season over, winter habitat management is in full swing on our #SpecialProtectionArea #ThamesBasinHeaths Wardens Kay & Sonia attended their first volunteer work party last week, helping clear pine off the heath to keep it in tip-top condition.

Today we swapped the #ThamesBasinHeaths for the coast, learning about disturbance to coastal birds with the amazing Bird Aware Solent 🦆 team. Curlew, Oystercatcher and Redshank were spotted, to name a few! #coastalbirds #wadingbirds #birddisturbance #solent #specialprotectionarea

Blue skies and gannets #BullRock #SpecialProtectionArea

Relieved to see the Bull Rock bursting with life today. The air, land and sea were full of the sights & sounds of gannets that breed on the island. A tonic when reading of the devastation Avian Influenza has caused to the UK's gannet colonies #Bull #Cow #SpecialProtectionArea

Has news of the #BiodiversityCrisis not reached our Local Authorities yet❓ #glyphosate #sickofplastic #SpecialAreaOfConservation #SpecialProtectionArea

Local Authorities are "the key body for enforcing water protection legislation": Department of Housing, Local Government & Heritage Why all the plastic pellets in these tree stumps then? Brought to this #SpecialProtectionArea by Fingal County Council ❗️🤦🏿‍♀️

How long would you say have these lighters been sitting in our River Basin❓ Catherine Martin TD Louise O’Reilly TD for Dublin Fingal Alan Farrell TD Darragh O'Brien Is this maybe why #biodiversity is disappearing so fast🤔 #2minutebeachclean #SpecialAreaOfConservation #SpecialProtectionArea

At this time of year, “Party Zone” bushes reveal their secret stashes more easily to our volunteers #Jacko #TheJacko #SpecialAreaOfConservation #SpecialProtectionArea BBE dates on the cans suggest 5+ years old anyway🙄
