Throughout the school holidays you'll be able to search for 40 wooden birds and butterflies hiding in trees around Billesley ward's four fabulous parks. Artwork decorated by the talented students @WheelersLane and @SwanshurstNews Woodwork by our Andy!

Yes we know its strange to be talking about needing drainage in this weather, but this will be vital come wet December weekends!
Work being carried out with @BhamCityCouncil & the support of @VeoliaUK on the community pitches

There's no words ....... youths causing mindless destruction. Adults understand that this stupidity could have destroyed half the common in this heat. Thank you to @WMFSBillesley for attending. @BillesleyCommon

It would make such a difference if Birmingham City Council would stop using pesticides. Bee Friendly Brum hope to get 100,000 signatures before they submit this petition at the weekend. Please can you help?
Hi! We don't need funding, we are just a volunteer mum collective,
but we #LoveBrum & bees + could do with some help if you could 🙏 share our petition asking Birmingham City Council to stop using pesticides in our urban spaces 💚🐝
Almost at 100K now!

We are working with BCC Ecologist, Wildlife Trust and BCC Parks to look at where a change of grass verge management can happen across the whole city as part of the City of Nature / Nature Recovery Stratergy. To increase diversity of species and support pollinators.

They say that a weed is just a flower in the wrong place. How could anything so beautiful and so important for our pollinators ever be in the wrong place? Happy #InternationalDayoftheDandelion

Butterflies and bees from my garden this year. Every garden I design, as well as my own, is carefully created and plants selected to attract beneficial pollinators, birds, bees and butterflies. A biodiversity garden is a sustainable garden @GWandShows @GWmag #gardening #butterfly
