Brilliant to see @cieem.bsky.social hosting another symposium on invasive species in the UK Overseas Territories. Sign up is free, here: events.cieem.net/events/detai.... #UKOTs

Green Iguanas were identified as highly likely to arrive during a horizon scanning exercise (Dawson et al., 2023: doi.org/10.1111/conl...), and it looks they have. Well done on the intercept. 🦎 bernews.com/2025/10/igua...

Each hurricane season just keeps getting crazier. This year two storms in less than 24 hours! youtu.be/8oh01kpYBMQ?...

This is why I loved living in Newfoundland 💙

Just spent 3 weeks in the field watching Great Kiskadees (invasive in Bermuda) choking down Surinam Cherries (also invasive in Bermuda). The entertainment value is high! vimeo.com/1088918873

Just ran into a Bermuda Government colleague in London, on #BermudaDay ! 🇧🇲

Best thing at #RHSChelsea! Well done Barbados.

Not sure if the kids favourite part of Good Friday is the chocolates or climbing on the roof!

The #buybackbermuda project at Eve's Pond in March 2020 and March 2025. The pond had been filled with dredge spoil for about 50 years, until it was re-excavated with crowd sourced funds. #wetlandrestoration #pond #restoration 🦆
