The sadistic slaughter of thousands of #WhiteStorks flying through Lebanon is totally out of control this spring. One minute flying home the next dying in agony with no idea what’s happened. We’ve done our best but where are the patrols!? قوى الامن الداخلي STOP THESE BASTARDS!! 🤬💔🩸

A great walk in the Gloucestershire countryside yesterday lifted spirits with several pairs of redstarts amongst others followed by a drop in at the Diglis Fish Pass. 130 roach, 50 odd bleak+ dace, perch and 2 carp ( 1 big). I love redstarts! So smart but so discreet!

"South West Water fined £2.1m for pollution offences." That is the 161st time @SouthWestWaterhas been fined over the last 10 years, a total of £4,573,634. Fines don't work, something else needs to done. Nick Ferrari was right, time for jail. themoorlander.co.uk/south-west-wat…

The old orchards on the outskirts of Hereford and everywhere else in the country for that matter are valuable habitat for a variety of wildlife and at this time of year the cavities in these old trees provide homes for one of our most colourful flying treasures!

Single fallow doe looking for a quiet private place to give birth. Some of the boar have already done so as this inquisitive youngster confirms.

Tawny owls are fledging successfully, barns owls hopefully will follow shortly but the little owls that used to sit on every other telegraph pole at this time of year when I was a kid are extremely few and far between.

Fantastic!!!

So lucky to get an obliging nightingale at lunchtime in Highnam woods today! Lot's of little bursts of broken song as he skulked in the undergrowth, (that branch!🙄), but finally he stood up proud in a slightly clearer spot and gave it something worthy of his species. Perfect !😊

Very enjoyable morning at Goldcliff despite the very strong cold wind. Blackwits and barwits, whimbrel on the rocks, lesser whitethroat and marsh harrier with green wing tag were highlights amongst many others.

Grasshopper warbler. (Just about!) Uncropped and cropped.

The weather on Thursday was fantastic for hill walking so went to the Mynydd du and hiked up to the summit of Pen Y Gadair and Waun Fach and returned via Rhos Dirion and the Grwyne Fawr reservoir. Met a great Canadian on top of Waun Fach. Enjoy the rest of your holiday buddy!

Went out for a wander to listen for Leo's tonight and although I didn't hear any the aurora was quite spectacular!

A rock band is performing and the singer sees a kid with a banner asking to play guitar with them. The singer asks him: - Do you really know how to play guitar? - Yeah! - What's your favorite band? - Guns N' Roses What happens next is incredible.
