Exciting morning watching @BDMLR rescue the injured male harbour seal at Teddington lock! What a fantastic bunch of people going around the country to help creatures in need. How can we make the Thames a safer place for all marine life?? @LondonNPC @WildLondon @portLondon

Our 10th episode of #ReadingNature takes a closer look at our prickly friends the hedgehogs. How much do you know about these spiny mammals? What steps can we all take to make Kingston a better place for them? @kinglibheritage @RBKingston #KingstonNature youtube.com/watch?v=7f96CLDc…

Well that’s a 1st, our @KingstonBioNet meeting was attacked by trolls! Well done @Srsivanesan for reacting swiftly! Thanks to @HogFriendly for a fantastic and unperturbed talk which can be seen on the FB group! Preceded by another inspirational water vole meeting! #GetInVOLEd

Have you ever seen a dazzling Kingfisher as you walk along one of our rivers? These beautiful birds have to eat their bodyweight in fish every day, so they are great indicators of river health, their presence showing there are lots of fish in the river! #WildlifeWednesday

Be part of something special and help this exciting project which will hopefully lead to water voles thriving once again on our river

You can learn so much about history by place names. The Beverley Brook which flows through Kingston is thought to get its name from the beavers that once lived on the river. Beavers became extinct in the UK in the 16th century but are now being reintroduced! #WildlifeWednesday
