❗ Don't delay! Place shallow dishes of fresh, clean water around your garden - they can be a lifeline to thirsty creatures like #hedgehogs, birds & bees! 🦔 🐦 🐝 🦋 💧 Add a few pebbles so insects can perch & safely drink too! #WaterforWildlife #Sharetomakeaware

Remember to check for wildlife if you're tidying gardens this week! 🦔✂️🚫 Let grass grow – but if you must mow, try to leave a corner or edge untouched. Check carefully for #hedgehogs before you start work, then cut it to about a foot tall. Check again before cutting shorter!

It is absolute lunacy that we force human ideals in places where they do not belong. They are not pinching, they are scavenging, in that regard calling for culls because of annoyances is dangerous in my opinion 🤔
'They're a symptom of us having a throwaway society, chucking away our litter' 'There are just too many seagulls, you are swarmed by these awful animals' A study has found more people than ever are being attacked by seagulls so is it time to cull the gulls?

The weather today has been fantastic, which called for a little adventure with my partner in crime.

Well the busy season is nearly at an end. I’m finishing up an application for a PhD, regardless of the outcome I’m proud of how far I have come. Never would I have thought whilst working as a mechanic I would be here.

Tomorrow 100,000 nurses go on strike. Their real pay has fallen by £1,800 this year, declining by £5,000 since 2010. 14% are using foodbanks while 1 in 3 have difficulty covering the cost of food and heating their homes. But this strike is about more than just paltry pay.🧵

I feel very privileged to be able to attend the ACI 2022 conference. It contains some fantastic papers and quality speakers, it’s been very thought provoking already.
