Flamingo Land's appeal against the rejection of their mega-resort is absurd 🫸🦩 Highlights include trying to use housing policy as evidence when it's a tourist resort they want to build, not a housing estate. They are also still trying to disregard SEPA's flood risk warnings

TV presenter @PhilSpencerTV blocked us for sharing this image previously so we thought we’d remind the public of the fact he revels in taking the life of an animal. He’d probably hate it if you reposted this.

A recommendation to reject Flamingo Land from @lomondtrossachs' own planning experts is HUGE But the board could still agree to the plans. We'll keep campaigning until the public hearing on 16th Sept and we need your help: ✍️greens.scot/flamingoland 💵crowdfunder.co.uk/p/flamingo…

Please #retweet/#share for the #bees.🙏🏼🐝 Again let’s talk about #honeybees in the context of ‘Saving the Bees’. Let’s cut the bull and cut to the chase as there’s way too much confusion/misinformation out there which is a hinderance to & detrimental to genuine bee saving. 1/18

It’s just sickening. Shame shame on the Faroe Islands @Tinganes Time to pause trade with this community until they stop massacring gentle whales and dolphins which are at a fraction of their former abundance.
Late last night a further 100-150 precious and gentle pilot whales were butchered in the 7th Faroe Islands hunt of 2023. This takes the total of this species massacred this year in the archipelago to a sickening +-800. That the EU/UK sits back a watches protected cetaceans slaughtered for an outdated tradition on their doorstep by a protectorate of a member state (Denmark) is nothing short of a disgrace and a dereliction of duty.

We are dismayed, disappointed, and deeply concerned. UK Gov has just approved the use of a banned pesticide so powerful; a single teaspoon could kill 1.25 billion bees. This is a huge mistake. If we want to #DefendNature we must #SayNoToNeonics. 👉 wtru.st/say-no-neonics-again

It’s getting worse! This is an abhorrent act of vandalism. @DefraGovUK, @NaturalEngland & @TonyJuniper pull your bloody fingers out & do something!!!
Hen harrier chicks stamped to death in nest on grouse moor in Yorkshire Dales National Park. Why has it taken 6mths for police appeal? This is blatant censorship of raptor persecution crimes, designed to assist the grouse shooter's narrative. New blog⬇️ raptorpersecutionuk.org/2022…

Arnie, one of our Starlings, sat with Rose and singing along to me playing the piano, he will be fourteen this May, he is such a sweet natured and cheeky bird, Starlings love music,in particular classical. Also, Mozart the composer loved Starlings and kept one for three years.

Very sad to hear that John Langmaid has died. He led many a leaf-mine hunt in the county, finding several county firsts over the years. His knowledge of micro moths was unsurpassed. RIP

Looks shit all year round, drainage runs off freely so you flood some other poor sod, requires little maintenance until weeds pop up and it smells like dog piss. It's the ideal solution if you have another planet you can move to when we've wrecked this one 👍
Artificial grass looks great all year round, drains freely, is weatherproof and requires very little maintenance. It’s the ideal solution. Eden Landscapes can help transform your garden. Find out more here: edenlandscapes.ltd.uk/
