The Franklin's Gull at Crossness - found by @wobblygreen gave, well, frankly amazing views in the sun this morning. Only the second bird for London, the first being at the same spot in 2000 @BirdGuides @LondonBirdClub @CrossnessG @RSPBbirders @ThePhotoHour #londonbirds

A great evening talking all things river and environment!
Tideway and charity partner @Thames21 came together with community volunteers on World Environment Day to celebrate 10 years of Thames River Watch. The programme engages riverside communities in citizen science to collect and count plastic litter on the Thames foreshore.

On World Environment Day, we are delighted to launch our Live Litter Map, showing the effects of plastic pollution across the Tidal Thames. Data presented in the Live Litter Map has been generated by our citizen science volunteers through our Thames River Watch programme.

Really pleased to see @LondonPortAuth enforcing a foreshore clean up by contractors. Thanks for reporting @iantokelove
Thanks to @LondonPortAuth for taking immediate enforcement action when I alerted them to the #ConvoysWharf contractors dumping countless scraps of Glass Reinforced Plastic & other #PlasticPollution into the River Thames below. The naughty boys were made to dress up & tidy up ⬇️

👋👋 a dozen #litterheroes defying the rain on Sunday to help #stopplasticpollution in the Thames. The stuff they pull off the foreshore looks awful, and thanks to these people it isn't in the ocean! @KeepBritainTidy @ThamesEstPart @LondonPortAuth
🌧️Rain didn’t stop 12 dedicated volunteers down at the foreshore on Sunday. We collected 22 bags of waste plus a plastic chair seat & sofa cushion. Many thanks to Peabody @ThamesmeadLDN for collecting the waste & @CrossnessET for 🧼🚽facilities &
