When you do a good turn and don't think the recipient will remember it 33 years later!! I've only just seen her comment on a Spike Island post, been in touch with her and she still has the letter I sent with the tickets!! #StoneRoses #SpikeIsland

Hasn't it been an amazing year for butterflies - and moths - I've had 20 sightings of Humming Bird Hawk Moths. Lucky if I see two in 'normal' years!

I wrote this haiku 20 years ago and have been waiting for 20 years to "capture the moment" cos that's what haiku is all about. Finally............ and it makes me very happy. #haiku #butterflies

How can anyone harm a Hare? I see him quite a lot - luckily he's sometimes a-kip and doesn't see me! I call him Herr Brush - humour me!☺️ @norfolknats.bsky.social

Good publicity for the new documentary coming up of newly-found footage which I hope I'm not in! I should point out that I didn't organise anything to do with the gig apart from taking 100s of phone calls and attempting to keep the merchandise tent under control!

Well, the male Redstart wasn't there today but this beaut was. I thought it was a female Black Redstart but I'm told it could be a first year male or female. Any help appreciated!! @nenbc.bsky.social @rspb.bsky.social @rspbengland.bsky.social @markclements27.bsky.social @yellowshriker.bsky.social

I stumbled upon this absolutely stunning male Redstart at the cemetery today - I was just leaving as hadn't seen anything and thought "why can't there be a Redstart here?"😊 I was the first person to see it - so that was a bonus! I never see the interesting birds first! @nenbc.bsky.social

Highlight of the day definitely 3 x Treecreepers on Beeston Common. Beautiful markings on this bird. Chiffchaffs were out in force, singing away and 3 x Red Kites over Beeston Common - that's unusual for these 'ere parts (just out of shot were five Buzzards). @nenbc.bsky.social @rspb.bsky.social

Still of female Peregrine early this morn on Cromer church: the webcam shows the Starling fly STRAIGHT into her! They were both dazed. Luckily she was half-asleep & the Starling flew north - very close to the sea so guessing it's a returning to Scandi bird. @NENBC_Info @RSPBbirders

Why was it ok for MAGA morons, spurred on by TrumpetyTrump, to storm Capitol Hill, threaten to murder people and beat up police? How is that not illegal but student protests are? And when they got LEGALLY imprisoned why was it OK for the President to pardon them? What's happening America?

No second state visit for Trump This is UNBELIEVABLE. Keir Starmer has just handed Donald Trump a letter from King Charles, inviting him for a second state visit to the UK. It’s totally unprecedented, and I was so outraged when I he...

Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...
