A Blue Tit sits on the left side of a thin branch, small and neat with a blue cap and white cheeks, while a larger Great Tit perches on the right with a black head, white cheek patches and a bold black stripe down its yellow chest. The Blue Tit on the left is leaning forward as though trying to read something below, while the Great Tit watches on expectantly... Above the image is the caption:
β€œOk, he’s writing …”
β€œJust tell me.”
β€œBlue Tit x2… sorry mate.”

I’m sorry, but there is absolutely no excuse for travelling to a remote Scottish island to bash baby gannets to death and call it β€œtradition” or a β€œlocal delicacy”.

Especially when there’s a Tesco superstore on the very island where these birds are eaten.

END THE GUGA HUNT.

Voice your concerns about the Planning and Infrastructure Bill Amendments are needed to make sure there is space for nature in the Planning and Infrastructure Bill. Tell us why nature and development needs to go hand in hand.

@norfolkbea.bsky.social, please re post, many MPs conveniently ignore individual emails. The Planning & Infrastructure bill, could be disastrous for nature. The wildlife trusts ask us to co-sign their own letter. We need to make sure our voices are counted. action.wildlifetrusts.org/page/169472/pe…

Dear Women’s Weekly we have a cost of living crisis & shelters full of unwanted dogs that people can no longer after to keep & your advocating breeding puppies as nice little earner on the side. This is shameful

A Robin perches proudly on a snow-dusted wooden post, its bright orange-red breast glowing like a beacon of warmth against the frosty, pale winter backdrop. With its feathers fluffed against the cold and beak open in song, this little garden friend perfectly captures the timeless winter cheer of Robins on #NationalRobinDay.
