Last chance to take part in Devon Bat Survey 2019 and find out about the bats near you! 16 monitoring centres still have 1 or more collection slot left. But hurry, the survey finishes at the end of October buff.ly/2Uv0ijF @DevonWildlife @DevonLife #bats

Yesterday we took some time out to have an "educational" trip to Beer. A visit to see the dramatic landslide causing the closure of Old Beer Rd and to the fascinating Beer Quarry Caves and finishing with a beer! #landslides #coastal #instability #geology 😎

There was a large rockfall at Freshwater Beach in West Dorset over the weekend. If you are visiting the Jurassic Coast, please stay well away from the top and bottom of the cliffs, as they can collapse at any time @Dorsetecho @visit_dorset @BridportTIC bit.ly/2ZphkRO

Along with some fossil wood and Crinoid rocks we found some nice Ammonites on today's fossil walk at Charmouth! This family are now on their way home to Kent with their treasures from the Jurassic Coast. #professionalguide
