The only easily reachable RSPB site from London on public transport… At a time when people really need access to nature. I sincerely hope this doesn’t go through.

Rainham Marshes RSPB could have its café, shop, education programme and visitor centre axed following cost-cutting proposals from the charity that could see 60 reserves impacted: bit.ly/4hq9PDw

You know I love the @BBC & celebrate all the things we pay our licence fee for . But yesterday whilst 100K peaceful people marched to demonstrate their love for life all I could find on @BBCNews was a selfie of the gas-guzzling @taylorswift13 . Im sorry but thats a disgrace #RestoreNatureNow

Dear @BBCNews we would like to know why you didn’t cover a major news event in #London yesterday. Between 60-100 THOUSAND people marched at the #RestoreNatureNow. It looks like you are picking what you think is newsworthy. Isn’t that called bias? Regards, British wildlife.

I don’t think that the Houses of Parliament Peregrines have ever received such a loud round of applause than the one given by those marching for nature today @RNNMarch #RestoreNatureNow

If you want to understand parasitoid #wasps - and why wouldn't you! - this is a great piece! Also features a paper we published in 2018 on a new #wasp species with a fun name.

Dear UK Moth recorders - please can you help Iona Cunningham-Eurich with her PhD research.
It's not about the moths but all other species found in moth traps. It would be great for her research & its not onerous :)

Calling #Moth enthusiasts! Do you operate a moth trap? If so, pls help @ionace out with her PhD, by filling in a 10 min anonymous survey.
It's all about (anon) YOU, your motivations & the #INSECTS in your trap!

Sharing some artwork I did for a children’s mammal book, due to be printed and released this year ✨
I’m really loving using art in communicating science and no, I will not shut up about it ❤️
