Under the moonlight, you see a sight that almost stops your heart

Yeeeessssssssss 🐻

What may look as a boring couple of nuts to you is actually something FAR more profound. I've been feeding my neighborhood crows for a while now. I've got to know the territorial pair whose range includes my flat. Recently, I've been feeding them from out the back of my flat on the first floor

There's a lot of really bad things happening across the world right now, so here's a little story of positivity and hope. The Silver-washed Fritillary butterfly has been spotted on the edge of Newcastle/Northumberland for the first time in nearly 200 years. 💛🦋🖤 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

WTAF The firm guarding sites where aid is distributed in Gaza has been using members of a US biker gang with a history of hostility to Islam to run its armed security, a BBC investigation has found. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This is Foghorn, one of my crow familiars, named because their territorial call sounds very much like a foghorn. I've been feeding this one for a month or so now, and it does this quiet contact call after I've fed it. Apparently it's a call they only do to trusted crows and humans. #BirdSky 🐦🦢🦅🦜🦉

UK must spend £1.5bn a year on flood defences to protect public, experts warn Researchers cite £2.4bn annual cost of flooding and say a third of England’s critical infrastructure is at risk www.theguardian.com/environment/...

It is absolutely atrocious how some organisations treat their employees and sad just how common this is, but I'm glad that people are finally feeling bold enough to start talking openly about their horrendous treatment www.italynews.it/attualita/20...

The Guardian has today printed the names, and where possible, images, of all the media workers killed in Gaza, as part of an international day of action involving more than 150 media organisations. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

As I'm currently on a fixed-term contract that ends in a few months, I thought I'd start the search for my next role! Open to short-term contracts, permanent roles, consultancy/freelance gigs, and relocation to basically anywhere in the world if you can sort me out a visa 😍

Interesting ornithology today at the beach - saw juvenile gulls practicing hunting by repeatedly picking up some seaweed, dropping it at a height, then chasing it back to the sea and picking it up again. 🦢 #BirdSky 🦆 #BirdsOfBlueSky 🐦

Yesterday, 3 bird-related things happened: 1. Whilst on a work Zoom call, I saw out of my window a gull kill and rip apart a juvenile carrion crow whilst its parents tried desperately to get the body back 2. I saw the same crows later on soak some food in a water bowl - this is food prep

Riding bikes is 10X more important than electric cars for reaching net-zero cities. And that’s just the climate emissions part. #ClimateCrisis theconversation.com/cycling-is-t...

A picture (with a very apt sign) paints a thousand words. Where do you go for solace when the chips are down? For me, it always has been and always will be to immerse myself in nature.

You know that one work colleague who just keeps interrupting you, won't leave you alone, hangs around your desk, sits on your laptop, dribbles over it, head rubs you and gets fur everywhere? Current view of my laptop screen. #RescueCats #CatSky 🐱🐈🐈‍⬛

This will make Brazil's hosting of UNFCCC #COP30 this year even more interesting. Interestingly, the news article doesn't once mention #ClimateChange - only how this could improve shareholder profits. www.cnbc.com/2025/08/05/b...

Are we witnessing the final stages of capitalism as we know it? A system now in terminal decline, eating through the foundations of both human & planetary health? In this article, I lay out data showing how extractivist neocolonial capitalism is killing the planet. www.linkedin.com/pulse/stage-...

I've spent the afternoon decluttering. Was finally going to get rid of this t-shirt, which I've had for 30 years (!!). But before I did.... #DogSky #DogsOfBlueSky #RescueDog

We should come to terms with the fact that forest, shrubland, grassland, and wetland ecosystems cannot offset fossil fuel CO₂ emissions. But we should still protect and restore them for biodiversity and other ecosystem benefits.

🦇 Bats, newts & the Great British distraction machine. 🐉 Or how Labour borrowed a Tory tactic and just changed the scapegoat Historically in Westminster, if a government wanted to distract from crumbling public services, obscene inequality or the slow implosion of the economy, they knew what to do:

#ClimateGrief is a natural part of the process. It's needed for understanding of our situation and to move to real action.

Whilst it's difficult to attribute single extreme weather events to climate change, what we do know is that climate change is making extreme weather events more common & more dangerous. Tackling climate change isn't an environment issue; it's an economic & social one www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Great reflective🧵 from @nixrust.bsky.social Applied to the food system, we're clearly at v early stages of new growth but little belief by those in power & tweakers that radical changes needed are possible - we've built such huge edifices & power structures, in supply & consumption.. But it will

I have to admit I’ve never been more pessimistic about the future, and the present. Watching unfold - in plan view - the genocide and mass starvation of a whole country makes it impossible to believe or hope that the global community will come together to stop catastrophic climate change.

Some key facts on *un*sustainable aviation fuel. ⛔️80% of UK’s waste oil would only power 0.6% of its flights ⛔️Using synthetic e-fuel for all USA domestic flights would use 85% of USA’s electricity generated. ⛔️Powering UK flights on plant-based biofuels would use >50% of its agricultural land 🧵

Wildfires have claimed 14 lives near Turkey's fourth largest city as a record 50°C heatwave grips the country.
