Great day out in Leigh Woods searching for active Thrush anvils with @Wild_yates today, this bird seems to have a fantastic search image for the pink, one-banded #Cepaea nemoralis 🐌 (with some Cornu aspersum in the mix)

Merlins are my favourite raptor, I have admired them over the years and have had several near misses. Finally after 20 years I managed to ring one on another amazing night on the Salisbury Plain. The supporting cast of a Long Eared Owl and 2 Short Eared Owls was also fantastic.

Don't suppose you'd like to make and send us a prop for our prog next wk? We've got a cracking item on Flapper skates w. a remarkable 2m 'wingspan'. Could be lovely in ceramics... Or I can offer you ivy bees. Or perhaps bird migration. The choice is yours and @Alan_Measles

So, now I’m a grass snake daddy! A friend found a beautiful girl who had only been dead an hour or two - and then 18 eggs inside. So obviously I’ve now got them specific substrate, at a certain temperature and humidity, for the rest of the summer. My very own @BBCSpringwatch

I’ve had the best weekend. I’ve spent each evening in the forest. Saw around 10 fieldfare chase a goshawk! It was incredible. Squirrels weren’t very happy. Hope you’ve all had a chilled weekend too! 💚
