This year Fran Halsall has taken on Sheffield Open Wildlife Gardens and is looking to see whether there is interest from people opening their gardens in August and September. You can register your interest here: forms.gle/Rq7Yg8vP5iHpV1…
It’s launch day! From now until 12pm on the 27th April, you can donate to our Hedgehog Friendly Schools campaign via the @BigGive #GreenMatchFund & every £1 you give will be DOUBLED. Give children the opportunity to help save a species! 🔗bit.ly/3ohMpci
Today Elon took my Blue Tick away. As an experiment to see if my reach has been affected, can you please do me a favour?🙏 If you follow me, and you see this tweet, can you please retweet it.♥️ To make it worth sharing, here's my photo of a rare Black Redstart after a fly🐦
If anyone missed this last night… joyous! bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod…
A final reminder for our last open garden of the summer in Hillsborough tomorrow: a family-friendly garden with swift, insect and hedgehog habitat, and a beautiful wildlife pond facebook.com/events/s/12-ch…. Hope to see people there🙂
Our last open wildlife garden of the summer takes place this Sunday, hopefully with some swift sightings amongst the rest of the wildlife. £1 entry donation for Cat Ching.

Very excited to visit this garden in Walkley tomorrow… from sterile plastic lawn to emerging wildlife haven with loads of different features - ponds, owl houses, hedgehog staircases and more... Saturday 16th, 2-4, 96 Carr Road, Walkley, S6 2WZ youtu.be/CRdcApkD8s0
Fascinating, inspiring and relaxing tour of three gardens and an orchard in Wharncliffside and Ewden this afternoon with so many butterflies we never see on our suburban part of the city. Lots of ideas for doing things a bit differently and taking things a bit wilder.
We’re very excited to be heading out to this later - a beautiful sunny day so hoping for an abundance of butterflies and insects💚

Tomorrow looks like an amazing day for a garden tour👇
It’s #RoseWednesday we’d love to see your wildlife loving your roses. Bees (and other insects) love this rose as much as us.
Amazing! Thanks for sharing @PaulSelby18 , if you’d be interested in having actual visitors, check out our pinned post 🙂
