Ah, the Common Pond Skater. One of the first insects we learn about at school for their fascinating ability to walk on water💧 But this childhood favourite is not as innocent as it seems... www.instagram.com/reel/DJpEqJm... #PondSkater #Insects #Nature

At first glance, these fuzzy, flittering insects look quite cute, but the edges of it's wings isn't the only dark thing about this master of mimicry... Learn more in my latest post in my Nuggets Of Nature series ✨️ #DarkEdgedBeeFly #Insects #Nature www.instagram.com/p/DJdy9_poh0...

It was brilliant to get out over the weekend to take part in the #GreatUKWaterBlitz for the Earthwatch Institute to monitor nitrate & phosphate levels in our freshwater habitats. Joining in with citizen science projects is SO important. Looking forward to doing it all again in September 🌍

There's a solution to climate-induced wildfires: Make Britain Wet Again. Re-wet peat bogs, block up drainage channels, let trees regenerate to shade out fire-prone gorse, let fire-proof deciduous trees grow in place of flammable non-native conifers. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Our April pick, as chosen by members, is 'The Island Of Missing Trees' by Elif Shafak 🌳✨️ #RewildYourShelf #BookClub #Nature #Books

I was lucky enough to receive some very lovely bookmail over the weekend, so I thought I would share here 📚✨️ All three sound incredible & so important, I can't wait to dive in! Thank you very much to @edpr.bsky.social @chiffchat.bsky.social and Elliott&Thompson for my #gifted books 💚

In March we'll be reading 'An Atlas Of Endangered Species' 📚 #RewildYourShelf #Books #BookClub #Nature

visited the redwood 🌲

February's book pick: Pod by Laline Paull 🐬🌊✨️ #RewildYourShelf #BookClub #Pod #LalinePaull #Nature #Dolphins

Today's library pickup:

Have been really enjoying reading this lovely book, and learning some winter words ❄️ My favourite of this evening is 'foxing day', which is a day when the weather turns out much better than expected.

A goal for this year is to get outside every single day, in whatever form, for whatever reason and whatever the weather. Just outside. Today's sunny exploration led us to a giant redwood standing loud & proud in a local park. I don't think I've seen so many birds in one tree before 🌲☀️🐦

Hello to new (& old followers). Hope you're enjoying Betwixtmas. A heads-up on my Only Connect! #nature newsletter out soon with book reviews, interview with @ianparsons.bsky.social, tree ID quiz, book giveaway & an exclusive extract from my memoir about the grounding power of #trees. Subscribe ⬇️🙏🌳
