I just signed the open letter calling for an independent commission to scrutinise tidal energy generation in the Mersey Estuary. Sign here: actionnetwork.org/petitions/… @CheshireWT
We need an independent commission to scrutinise tidal energy generation in the Mersey Estuary.

Beautiful autumnal morning , sparkling with golden sunlight and festoon with cobwebs and as the mist rolled back, beautiful white rainbow hanging over the marsh.

Still some very small leveret about, this one having stayed motionless all day in a small divot in a dried out pond is venturing out after dark to nibble grass, have a fit of the zoomies and wait for mum to come back and feed them. Probably 2 to 3 weeks old.

I'm a Crane Fly , Commonly known as a daddy-long-legs. I'm a harmless insect that sometimes feeds on nectar helping with pollination but mostly I don't eat anything Please enjoy my company as a bumble around because I only live for a couple of weeks. 😊

Great White Egrets fishing on the rising tide, chasing the shoals of small fish that come into feed on the tideline. These elegant birds are becoming more common in the Uk, often secretive but the drought has dried up the ditches & now are regularly seen feeding on The Swale

First Snow bunting of the season on the north Norfolk coast, and he wasn’t afraid. He came too close to focus at one point. (Uncropped images)

More than 100 Eurasian Stone-curlews have fledged from an RSPB nature reserve in Wiltshire since a former farm was transformed into a haven for the rare breeding bird 20 years ago: f.mtr.cool/x110cc5wv7

LPO is calling for permanent shooting ban for #Curlew & Black-tailed Godwit. This would provide protection for thousands of both species that winter in and migrate through France. Background: wadertales.wordpress.com/201… Map shows tracks of Curlew returning from France to breed in UK.

Pleasant trip to Kent today. Main event was the book launch in Sittingbourne of Robert Canis’s “ELMLEY first light to last”. A life’s work of stunning landscape and wildlife images taken across the reserve. Managed the Grey Phalarope, Spot Red at Milton & 80 Pintail at Funton😊

Great to catch up with the excellent Grey Phalarope on its favoured pool on Holborough Marshes. An excellent record for the Medway Valley.

Dear councils, 97% of UK meadows are gone. So if you have wildflowers like ox-eye daisies on roadverges and in public spaces, don't spray them with weedkiller or over-mow them. Let's give pollinating insects like bees and butterflies a chance 🐝

Each autumn, adult waders do a complete change of feathers. It's an energetic process that takes longer than the breeding season. Blog (focusing on Grey Plover) from 19 Sep 2017 🎂 wadertales.wordpress.com/201… #ornithology
