🦉We have a couple of owl boxes on our HQ trial grounds between Cambridge and Histon, and this year they've produced seven youngsters between them! Last week they were fitted with rings by licensed bird ringers.

Last month, we heard the sad news that former NIAB scientist Professor Andy Greenland had passed away. Andy left a lasting legacy at NIAB in terms of the ethos of our crop genetic research and will be sadly missed. Here we pay tribute to his work at NIAB: ow.ly/jcMZ50OGK9N
