Thanks to everyone who attended today's @NatureForum_ #nationaltreeweek event organised in partnership with Douglas Tidy Towns & supported by @corkcitycouncil which was full of shared wisdom, connection & love of trees, Hedgerows & nature. Great to have Alan Moore @HedgeRowsIrl

This new document might be helpful to implement mitigating measures to reduce light pollution and for action at all levels. environment.ec.europa.eu/pub…

And not just @Corkcoco, @corkcitycouncil and other councils across Ireland. Access to darkness is essential for our well-being and that of many creatures, including night-time pollinators. Read @DaniDarkSkies book “All Through The Night”. Contact @darkskyireland for info too.
Any chance that Cork Co Council could work with @darkskyireland, local businesses + GAA clubs to reduce light pollution in West Cork @DeclanHurley @karencoakleycc @DeirdreKellyFF? No stars visible passing Mastercabin, Innishannon; GP Wood, Enniskeane and Carbery Group, Ballineen.

We have heard so many great things about @wildworkers, we are really looking forward to this presentation! Minister @noonan_malcolm said he will try to pop in at some stage, so it would be great if he could hear how Local Development Companies are supporting climate action!💪

1. Struggling with identification of bees/pollinators and various other tricky insects groups? It has been my life's mission to make things easier, so check out this chain. Firstly, Steven Falk Flickr: flickr.com/photos/63075200@N…. It's a virtual museum and field adventure.
Wild Work retweeted
2. That Flickr site has images that zoom larger if you keep clicking them, and drop-down species accounts. In many cases these are the only decent species accounts (or images) you can find for some insect species. I've also added hyperlinks to @NBNAtlas maps, key papers etc.😇👍

4. If you want to improve your bumblebee ID skills, there is the 2023 @chiffchat @rlewington2 guide, and also some useful bumblebee ID crib sheets posted on the
@BWARS website: bwars.com/content/identifica…. Bumblebees are not always that easy to identify!
