Rare and highly localised in the Lowestoft area, this wintering Nuthatch suggests this sedentary species still persists as a local breeding species.

Got lucky yesterday when the Yellow Warbler came down to the waters edge in the Millstream at New Hythe, would also like to thank everyone for all the kind comments over the last few days and wishing everyone a happy New year.

"Revealed: Thames Water diverted âcash for clean-upsâ to help pay bonuses."
In 2023 @Thameswater underspent their environmental obligation to the @EnvAgency by ÂŁ1.1bn. Now we know why. They used some if not all of that money for other company costs including bonuses and dividends.
That ÂŁ1.1bn formed part of the WINEP programme, a legally binding commitment to the @EnvAgency to deliver a certain number of clean up projects by 2025.
Is anyone from TW going to be prosecuted for breaking the law?

We havenât lost *half of our hedgerows* since the 1940s, weâve lost pretty much all. With the odd exception, the âhedgerowsâ that remain are machine-flailed to lifelessness, leaving them useless for wildlife. No width or depth, no cover, no spring blossom, no berries, nada.

Finnish Peregrine, St Bartholomew's church, Corton, Oct 2024. Born near Oulu in June, some 1,200 miles to the north-east. The 15thC tower was built particularly high to aid navigation for mariners...and falcons.
âWhen you get to Corton, the way begin to shorten.â

Juvenile XRF, still in the area, brings in fresh Little Auk prey! An amazing record for an inland site. The first in L&R since 2007.

This Dovekie very nearly suffered groyne strain during the recent northeaster. Stuck in the swell of the sea defences, it finally powered back out to sea when a large wave lifted it clear đ #LittleAuk
