I really just want to chat with other people about wildlife and the other things I’m into. So I’m another one, giving Bluesky a whirl. So far so good. Still @wildernorfolk Maybe see you there.

@ConservEvidence @Bill_Sutherland @Cambridge_Uni I think it would be a good idea to renationalise the parts of the process outsourced to agents, consultants and other self serving parties who don’t put nature first in their advice and decision making.

@pjcantwell76 One hopes they will be more deterred by the vertical slats added to the existing fencing. Sadly some dog owners can be hard things to teach.

RT @herdyshepherd1: I wrote this about offset BS And how politicians are backing away from environmental responsibilities - on the left an…

@herdyshepherd1 ‘Gold rush fuelled by bullshit’. Spot on. You could have added ‘and pedalled by shysters’. I buy some of philosophy, but the new industry is being taken over by the self serving. Nature still not coming out on top.

@SteveCaple4 Excellent Fact!! 👏

@Rebecca08510632 Ooh well done 👍. Looks great. Think I’d lose the will to live with two to do.

@SteveCJjones @adriawildlife Foliage burns like petrol, even when green. As demonstrated to me by @NHarnser @PaulEele

@DavidWebbTweet @gow_derek David this has gone a bit off topic and silly (because you don’t know what you’re talking about). So this is where I dip out. Have a good day.

@DavidWebbTweet @gow_derek I’d love to do that, if the opportunity ever arose. A grand ambition in terms of priorities. Though it doesn’t have to be 50% of the land area for each, it’s the consideration that needs to be equitable.

@DavidWebbTweet @gow_derek Yes I do David. Quite obviously that is a farms purpose, but there should be room for nature as well, and that should receive the same care and attention as food growing. Live trees and dead trees offer very different resources. Both are needed.

@DavidWebbTweet @gow_derek Hi David, for what it’s worth I’d say it’s pretty hard to say what’s going on here, what the motivations are or the objectives……but in any case removing dead and dying trees isn’t a good thing, from a bats perspective, or anything else.

@c_dodson_thatch Best reed in the world.

@gavlane …..and altogether too modest to accept praise for his achievments.

@nicolawriting 🤔….. had to google Imbolc….great word….and very interesting!

@terrierowner Certainly is. Along with the rest of his wetland portfolio.

@jimthekeeper Right approach, right place.

@jimthekeeper Nope. Fens.

@stuartpengs @jimthekeeper He certainly is…. And he’s got his best shirt on.
