The oak you’ve known for years, the patch of grass suddenly alive with bluebells, or the shortcut where traffic fades into birdsong... Local nature brings everyday joy. With big decisions ahead, MPs need to hear why it matters. Send your Postcard from Nature:

Nesting holes at a viaduct in Derbyshire have been filled in by Network Rail. It is ridiculous. Please ask them to reopen the holes -

Never heard of the Guga hunt? It's where a group of men travel to a remote Scottish island (Sula Sgeir) every year to bludgeon Gannet chicks (Guga) to death for a local delicacy.

DIYW. A bit of nest fettling while Blue 35 supervises from atop the camera. When they return in spring they dig an 'egg cup' hollow in the middle of the nest, then start building up the sides. That nest is pretty big after 13 years of home improvement!

67 horses have died at the Aintree Festival since 2000. 17 after racing in the Grand National. This isn’t sport, it’s a death toll. We’re calling for a boycott. Don’t attend. Don’t bet. Switch off. It’s time to put horse welfare before profit.

The sun rises on a new season for our favourite birds. We are so relieved to see B35 back. Since 2014 they have fledged 32 chicks from this nest, one of whom nests in the Lakes and has had several grandchicks.
