Please don’t mow or spray the dandelions. They are a lifeline for pollinators including bees, butterflies, hoverflies. They support over 50 insect species. Our little film shows the life in a small patch 🐝

Amazing news! Just the bit of #ConservationOptimism I needed today

Brilliant questions from the students at Hautes Capelles this morning.
Do you know how many #bumblebee species there are in the world?

It's #NationalDolphinDay ! There are between 36 & 40 species of dolphins, depending on how you categorize certain subspecies. Maui’s dolphins are the smallest, coming in at an average of 50kg & 1.7m and Orcas, are the largest at 6 tons & 9.5m

A lot of buzz about this and the idea of recognising #whales & #dolphins as legal individuals...

Very powerful image

A very insightful read.

A big reminder to check out the festival of local women's history at Guernsey Museum at Candie this weekend.

Horrifying that this lady was put in such a position.
Why don't we hold people in positions of power, influence, star athletes etc to the same standards as us mere mortals? Why do we frequently award them more leniency and set up a system to suppress victims?

My, possibly controversial, take is that; Not only are bumblebees cuter than honeybees. They're smarter too. I wonder where solitary bees rank? 🤔
I imagine social bees are 'easier' to study because they are more likely to cooperate

During a solar eclipse, the gaps between leaves on trees act as multiple pinhole cameras,

and each gap projects its own crescent-shaped image of the eclipsed sun onto the ground.

This is well worth a watch!
