Bit late but last week's Urban Riverfly Training from Gareth @ARiverforall @Riverflies with the @GwentWildlife was great fun! Looking forward for some more freshwater monitoring of the Taff soon!
Yesterday, Lauren and I presented an update to the #FriendsofButePark about our #SaveOurTaff campaign 🦆 Thanks to this collaboration, we will be able to expand water testing capability along the #Taff! Supported by #SFNW and @WTSWW 🦡 Website now live welshwildlife.org/save-our-taff

Small eel in the shallows from a recent shoot, if you don't move to much they can be quite inquisitive creatures.
Recently moved home to the Garw Valley, Bridgend, and pleased to find the ground beetle Leistus oopterus in the street today. This beetle is known only from the South Wales Valleys, northern Portugal and north-west Spain.
First Kingfisher Bank built with the help of my volunteers! Might be a bit too late for this year but fingers crossed 🤞 will be adding a tuft roof and painting the outside camo 💙🧡
First 104 house martin nest cups have been installed in the Amman Valley thanks to support from the local nature partnership, @AmmanUnitedRFC and @CwmammanTC. Hoping to install the remaining 100 or so next week on several buildings closer to Ammanford.

Beautiful photo @LynneWinThomas thanks for capturing! They are nature's beat boxers aren't they? 😁 #wildcardiffhour
Startling colours on a #starling! And they can beatbox with the best of them! No time to go out with the camera this week so grabbed five minutes in the garden and documented these beautiful birds for #WildCardiffHour
Wow! Lucky you to have such night visitors @Fraggenstein #wildcardiffhour

⏰ One month until the #BigRiverWatch! Between 3rd-6th of May, we're inviting everyone in the UK and Ireland to spend just 15 minutes of their bank holiday weekend helping us gather crucial data on #river health. ➡️ theriverstrust.org/big-river-watch #stateofourrivers #togetherforrivers
Wonder what’s going on here? We filmed these two kingfishers locked together on a recent walk along the Emral Brook. It would be great to hear your thoughts on why they are behaving this way!
Pleased to say we are back working with Cardiff Harbour Authority in the Bay. A small work party this morning removed 32 bags plastic bottles, 40 of general rubbish, a road barrier, cones, and lots needles. 1 small area to tackle next week. Hopefully people notice the difference
And that's a wrap for the first #WildCardiffHour of April. Thanks all for sharing your lovely finds this week 😁
