A racist mob menacing refugee children and our town. Read this and see what lies ahead, unless we...

Last weekend, it fell to ordinary people to oppose the far right and others. The national toxicity has reached us: a kind of hate I haven’t seen since the 1970s

A year ago the @HolkhamEstate with the @N_Rivers_Trust & Charles Rangeley Wilson embarked on a project to reconnect an ancient chalk stream back to the floodplain This is the result, amazing what you can achieve when you work collectively allow nature some space

This is bonkers! What is the carbon cost of transporting these? What is the bio security risk? We have tonnes of available firewood in this country in unmanaged woodland, there is no need to import.

Over the last two evenings we have ringed over 100 Swallows at roost. We also had the amazing surprise of a Hoopoe, an uncommon visitor from Europe. The Swallow ringed elsewhere, 3 Sand Martins and a Yellow Wagtail were somewhat overshadowed!

Some important context: this is the kind of sentence that was being handed out during the Kill The Bill protest in Bristol in 2021. This "two-tier Keir" line is utterly ridiculous.

In July I’ll be voting for our rivers. 💧🐟🌱 The BBC did a very good job editing down my long-form ranting, but I actually said “what the [EA] once were *or rather could have been*”. Small difference to some, big to others.

Very clear evidence of overgrazing by deer in a wood this evening. We just have way too many, not enough culling & no natural predators. Our ecosystems are sick & getting sicker. Should we all be eating more venison? Or bringing back Lynx & Wolves? Or both? Love to hear thoughts!

So saddened to hear about the passing of Benjamin Zephania. Someone who used his gift for good. His words ring as true now as the day he wrote them: “This planet is for everyone, borders are for no one. It’s all about freedom.” Rest easy Z.
