This plant is driving me a little nuts. There are several growing in a 20m stretch. Can any helpful botanists shed any light please? Growing on edge of forestry track, acid, dry, rocky area. North Wales. #wildflowerID #wildflowerhour

As #NoMowMay begins please take a minute to enjoy what can be achieved. Grandfather kept the sides of the drive like a lawn and 20 years of an annual mow rather than a weekly one this is the result (20th April) @LEAF_Farming @NFFNUK @FarmWildlifeUK

Bumblebee queens are emerging. I keep finding them resting on the ground. Several Early Bumblebees today and yesterday this Heath Bumblebee - Bombus jonellus. Check out the pale hairs on the hind leg. @BumblebeeTrust

Three oil beetles seen over three days. Two Black Oil Beetles (m&f) and today a Violet Oil Beetle (m). Nice to have both species so close to home #OilBeetleHunt @OilBeetlesUK

We need to be strategic about where we plant trees. Rigorous assessments and safeguards are needed to protect important habitats, like flower-rich grasslands from being planted on. Fair incentives will ensure we restore the diversity of habitats that nature depends on. 🧵4/8

We planted this new hedge 9 years ago and are delighted that this week the laying has started! I’m loving seeing it done and know I’m not alone - good for the hedge, the wildlife, the farm and the soul!

I’m very good at finding insects, in fact I’m a professional. Books on shieldbugs, wasps, ants, dung, limericks. Shout ‘weird bug!’ to get my attention.
