Happy Summer Solstice! How will you be celebrating the longest day of the year? ☀️

‘Solstice’ comes from the Latin, ‘solstitium’, meaning the stopping or standing still of the sun.

So pleased to see the resident Dartford Warbler on Tottenham Marshes in North East London this morning @rspb.bsky.social Such a delightful little bird @britishnatureguide.bsky.social #BirdsSeenIn2025

These days have the pinching, dull, bone-cold ache of a gate bolt that won’t go home. A snowdrop chill. But the winter thrushes are making a chattery river high in the bare branches, & their departure won’t be long. I still hate to lose winter, even as I long for spring… #naturewriting

A song thrush sits in the trees. Text (in front of yellow leaves illustration) reads "record spring's vital signs"

Get outdoors this spring and help Woodland Trust monitor nature 🔍

Projects to clean up rivers & protect communities from flooding could be lost if fines from water companies aren't ringfenced for nature💧

Wildlife Pond Project - YouTube I have one small pond in the Gwyllt Hollow garden, that was here when I moved in. In 2024, I remodelled it a bit to create more sloping sides as well as plan...

Ever thought of building your own wildlife pond?

Barn owl sat inside a nesting hole of a tree, looking out to the left of the frame. The texture of the bark frames the owl sitting inside.

An adult barn owl in flight during the evening light, the sun setting highlights its wings with a glow. The barn is flying across the middle of the frame to the left. The background is dark and blurred.

The unmistakable barn owl. 🦉

During the winter, these cherished birds spent much of their time hunting to endure the chilly months ahead.

Top spotting tip: dusk is the perfect time to catch a glimpse of them in action.
