Saying goodbye to the Birmingham pigeons. I'll miss these little angels

So excited for today's National Pigeon Advocacy Conference 🤩

English Roundabouts   They’re making the roundabouts great again by painting the flag of St George to keep our circular road systems safe from the dark, satanic hordes. What do they want? Patriotic junctions! When do they want them? Before it’s too late. Good old-fashioned English roundabouts, as decreed by Alfred the Great. Behold the sacred intersection, this blessed plot, this septic isle. English roundabouts for English people, draped in red and white and bile. St George is cross, as well he may be – whipped-up hate, he’s seen before. Give way to the right, the road signs rage, and the far right most of all. Brian Bilston

Here’s a poem called ‘English Roundabouts’.

Happy Pigeon Appreciation Day 😍

How will you hit your nature targets without the funding and protections that make them possible? A dramatic digitally created graphic of a game show scene featuring Keir Starmer standing at a blue quiz podium labelled “Nature or No Nature.” Above him, a glowing green question bar reads: “How will you hit your nature targets without the funding and protections that make them possible?” The background glows with blue lights and concentric circles, mimicking the tension of a high-stakes quiz show.

Welcome to Round 1 of Nature or No Nature!

Keir Starmer, you were elected on a promise to meet legally binding nature targets.

Now, funding for nature, and laws protecting species and habitats, are at risk.

So, for a chance to win back public trust, your first question:

Fund for nature-friendly farming to be slashed in UK spending review Exclusive: Defra sources say scheme, which pays farmers to protect nature, will be targeted at ‘small farms’

Farmers trying to do the right thing are yet again getting frozen out by this government, which seems determined to make the wrong decisions at every opportunity.

We are have updated our research into which garden plants attract the most pollinators. Our original research included 5 years of data. We then moved house so this is now 9 years of data over 2 different locations.
