3rd time in 5 months I’ve travelled to London by train. 3rd time I’ve had to do this. We don’t need HS2, we need proper investment in the current rail network. Thank you @AvantiWestCost
Unfortunately I can’t co-present @BBCSpringwatch this year. I had a stent inserted in April, which released a clot, that, this week, caused an embolysm! My demise has been greatly exaggerated; thanks to brilliant friends, wonderful family & the excellent @NHS. Go Megan & team SW!
A 35 second mindful moment from this morning’s Snettisham knot spectacular. Another reason why we must all fight for our wildlife #ActionforNature@RSPBEngland
Lots of criticism on twitter for councils cutting flower-rich verges, and rightly so. Hats off to @PowysCC for letting our local verges grow despite opposition from the ‘tidy brigade’. Meadowsweet, yarrow, birdsfoot trefoil, meadow brown & ringlet aplenty. More of this please
We are dismayed, disappointed, and deeply concerned. UK Gov has just approved the use of a banned pesticide so powerful; a single teaspoon could kill 1.25 billion bees. This is a huge mistake. If we want to #DefendNature we must #SayNoToNeonics. 👉

White stork on a Llanidloes chimney in mid-Wales this morning. Imagine having these beauties nesting on rooftops throught the UK once more! (Photo thanks to Tim Benbow)
