@EcoRecording @Love_plants @BVTNews Third year experimenting with #NoMowMay. Work still in progress. More violets appear each year, provided I don't mow in April either. Cuckoo flower a new one this year. Also yellow rattle seedlings establishing

Welcome to the @DCMS, @NadineDorries. You’ve got the chance to make the UK the safest place in the world to go online.
The @NSPCC are calling for the #OnlineSafetyBill to be stronger to keep children safe from abuse online. Help end the #WildWestWeb: bit.ly/3zkgSWO

7 little egrets and one kingfisher on the lake at Woodbrooke just now @EcoRecording @jjzomerset @WoodbrookeUK
Thank you so much @WTBBC for my prize photographic voucher. Bought a new field camera (old ones' video function dodgy after 10 years) and the hedgehogs are still shoving each other in my garden
@EcoRecording @WTBBC Came across this blackbird nest today while gardening. I've been seeing blackbirds flying into the bushes carrying nesting material. Robin eggs hatched early this week. Hoping to spot little faces peeping out of the box soon
I'd really appreciate if people could share this and/or reply with the hashtag #BBCWildlifexEcover. Every use of the tag is a vote to win funding from @EcoverUK for @WTBBC's brilliant @SalmonStour project. The money will help to benefit wildlife and people along the River Stour!
Hey @BorisJohnson @10DowningStreet, we want commitments to a healthy and well-protected ocean. When the #FisheriesBill returns to the House of Commons on September 1, it’s vital we keep sustainability as its prime objective.
Way to go. Lockdown litters prompts Welsh government to ban single-use plastics from 2021 inews.co.uk/news/environment…
#NoMowMay @EcoRecording I've been closely monitoring my front lawn which I last cut in April. Maybe it is just too dry, but apart from some flowering grasses it looks much the same this end of the month. The pollinators are all buzzing the flower borders, nothing on the lawn yet

@WTBBC @WestMidBirdClub @EcoRecording never heard of this arrangement amongst bluetits before. Two females sitting on the same clutch of eggs simultaneously. More than 10 eggs there.
plantlife.org.uk/uk/about-us… @WTBBC @BVTNews so I've just mown the edges of my front lawn and put a label in to make it clear its on purpose.

@EcoRecording @WestMidBirdClub Question. I've had 3 bluetits visiting my garden daily since autumn. Now 2 of them are bringing nesting material into a bird box (with camera). I assume nest builders are both female. Might I expect 2 clutches in same box?
@WestMidBirdClub @WTBBC Curiouser and curiouser. One bluetit is sitting on 4 eggs. Another keeps bringing more nesting material into the box and then sits in it for a while, sometimes even on top of the female on the eggs. Sitter hisses and wriggles and eventually no. 2 leaves
I've added my name to a massive thank you card to our brave NHS workers. Will you add your name today? speakout.38degrees.org.uk/ca…

Not surprisingly, community groups and individuals across the city are stepping up to this challenge and we're hugely grateful. Now it’s important that this effort is well coordinated and clearly communicated and we have asked our partner @BVSC to support us to achieve this.
