Jumping into our next #WildlifePhotography takeover with @billyheaney.bsky.social like... Head over to our Insta account @wwf_uk to see more from Billy’s recent Antarctica spring trip! 📸

Today is Empty the Tanks Day - a global call to end the #captivity of #whales and #dolphins. These intelligent beings belong in the wild, not confined to tanks used for so-called entertainment. As @billyheaney.bsky.social says, 'Nothing beats seeing a whale or dolphin, wild and free.'

Crikey what a journey this has been. After a week of travelling, days spent battling through monster waves (10 metres at one point), and lots of card games with fellow Antarctic adventurers, my boots have finally hit the ground and I’ve spent the morning surrounded by Gentoo penguins. 🐧

Heathrow disruption ✅ Afternoon in the Hilton spa ✅ London to Madrid ✅ Next stop Buenos Aires ✈️ First rule of travelling to Antarctica - always pack your swim shorts!

Top afternoon with the @mammalsocietyyouth.bsky.social clan at the Natural History Museum today. Great to meet all of their new Young Ambassadors, hatch plans for 2025, and have a sneak behind the scenes at the museums extensive mammal collection. 🐬🐋

I’ve never seen so many #humpbacks in one place! I’ve been lucky to spot them off Vancouver and a mother and calf near Sydney Harbour, but this encounter in #Skjervøy was next level. Time to plan more #whale sized adventures for 2025! 🐋

Come with me and ExplorEarth on a #whale sized adventure in Arctic Norway. 🇳🇴 🐋

Turn your sound up for #humpbacks 🐋 After a few days of stormy weather and cancelled trips, being able to share the water with over 10 humpbacks cruising through calm Norwegian waters off the coast of #Skjervoy was incredible. 🐋 @opticron.bsky.social @whaletalesorg.bsky.social

I’ve recently returned from a whale-sized adventure in Arctic Norway, gathering content for a number projects. What a place Skjervoy is 🐋

Hello @bsky.app 😊 Does #wildlife get any better than this? No glass, no walls, no tricks. Just two impressive male #orca, swimming wild and free. 🐬
