Increasingly feel being aware of nature is a curse as well as a blessing. The rest of our lives will be spent wondering if this is the year it all finally falls apart, which species is going to be next. Permanent anxiety.
Watched this Golden Eagle hunt, catch (didn’t see this bit, it was over the brow of the hill) and eat a rabbit today. Will never tire of seeing these birds.
To dandelions everywhere, I want to issue a very public apology for missing #InternationalDayoftheDandelion yesterday. I’m SO sorry! This is not a reflection of my feelings for you. I love you dearly & continue to sing your praises. Forgive me. Wildflowers, not weeds 🌼💛
Our dedicated entomology volunteer, Dorothy Lyle, has been running the light traps again with @AshWhiffin on the grounds of the collection centre. 💡 It’s been a slow start, but has included a new record for the site - Powdered Quaker. #MothMonday #MothMatter #NMCCbiodiversity
There is a great irony that I am confronted with often in my work @NHM_London : 1. we are in a biodiversity crisis, awareness of the decline in biodiversity is rising, engagement with nature is very high through apps, websites, entertainment, even a GCSE in Natural History..
Nice find here from @ray_rambling 👏 If you spot a Caterpillar hunter (Dendroxena quadrimaculata), be sure to share your sighting via iRecord for us!

NIST researcher Eric Mueller joined @usfs_nrs for the work shown in this video! Their goal is to improve the use of prescribed fires - intentional wildland fires designed to manage the ecosystem - by looking at how embers spread these fires. Check out the video for more details!

#BugsMatter #CitizenScience survey shows further decreases in UK insect numbers 🪰The troubling extent of #InsectDeclines in the UK has been highlighted once again by the 2023 Bugs Matter citizen science survey published today. ℹ️ Read the full story 👇 buglife.org.uk/news/bugs-matt…
ICYMI: An enormous wind farm, four times the size of Edinburgh, has been proposed off the east coast of Scotland. Along with @N_T_S, @SeabirdCentre & @ScotWildlife, we believe the Berwick Bank development will have a serious impact on our already struggling seabird populations.…
Huge congrats to @MarkCubitt & Roy Leverton on the release of their new book - The Larger Moths of Scotland 🏴 Mark popped in today to gift us a copy for the library. Thank you! 😊📗 #MothsMatter
Do you work in Forensic Taphonomy? We are trying to ascertain what the field looks like nationally and internationally and would really appreciate your help with this please. We have put together a survey which I would be grateful if you could complete: derby.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_5m…
📢Ento Klaxon! 📢We are offering places for a @NERCscience funded entomology skills course @HarperAdamsUni with @HAU_Entomology in July. Details can be found here: tinyurl.com/3n8uumvp
Every year we collect strandings from all over our coastline, to help monitor changes in our sea life 🐋 It is devastating to see the impact plastic is having. This collection of #plastic bags were ingested by a Cuvier's beaked whale causing it to starve to death. #EarthDay2024
Let it grow! 🌿 New research proves that letting parts of your garden grow wild with long grass can increase butterfly numbers by up to 93% and attract a wider range of species. Read the full story 👉 butterfly-conservation.org/news-and-blog/… 📷: Will Langdon @RichardFoxBC @LisbethHordley
What's that you say? You want a tiny, highly sculptured #beetle for your Friday afternoon? Look no further! Found this miniscule #Metophthalmus (#Latridiidae) in our collection from Oregon USA collected 1965. What a superb insect - too bad it eludes the attention most people 🔎🧐

Evelyn Cheesman #DiedOnThisDay in 1969. She was a British entomologist and traveller who collected over 70,000 specimens on her travels. Solanum cheesmaniae, a species of a wild tomato is named in her honour. Click on our link to learn more about her. nhm.ac.uk/discover/lucy-…
First it's been closures of museum buildings at local and county level, now even our national museums are in serious trouble. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Happy Monday everyone, what a wonderful day on here it was yesterday. So many amazing images and interesting facts shared by everyone for #InternationalDayoftheDandelion
@_JoelAshton We agree. Tip: start using ‘folks’ as a collective term if you want to be inclusive! 😉🐞🍃
@_JoelAshton @rescuehoadswood Three word slogan, gets human’s attention, train them into a new good habit, more and more people will stop mowing. Go #nomow
@_JoelAshton Like so many other videos on this issue, it raises great points but fails to contextualize what NoMowMay is for. It is to fight the lawn standard, and provide forage in doing so. It is the first step to get folks to have meadows and natural areas. linkedin.com/pulse/yes-mow-…
@_JoelAshton Hi Joel. As creator of #NoMowMay, here’s a thread explaining why both long & short grass can be great for inverts, and why having both is best x.com/drtrevordines/…. I’ve always seen NMM as an entry point for those unwilling to go the whole hog, until they see the results!
On the eve of #NoMowMay (and beyond!) here’s a little thread on why both mowing AND not mowing different parts of your lawn can be brilliant for wildlife. Sounds perverse? It’s all about long-grass and short-grass, and why you want both…
@_JoelAshton Obviously, I agree & support minimal mowing all year, everywhere, but I’m really concerned the pro-mowers will latch onto your line: ‘if you’re going to mow at the end of May, you will be better off not letting it grow in the first place’, and just not listen to any more
Our dedicated entomology volunteer, Dorothy Lyle, has been running the light traps again with @AshWhiffin on the grounds of the collection centre. 💡 It’s been a slow start, but has included a new record for the site - Powdered Quaker. #MothMonday #MothMatter #NMCCbiodiversity
& 2. Natural history collections provide a great insight into the world's biodiversity and the best possible tool for understanding it - they are at once a teleporter and a time machine allowing you to 'visit' and study ecosystems all over the world, including vanished ones..
This semester I taught Ornithology to 65 students. The last question on my final exam was: "What was the most interesting thing you learned in this course?” The students gave diverse answers... [🦚1/5]
