My heart skipped seeing my first Volucella zonaria of the year, on Buddleia at the back of @theul.bsky.social today. This one’s for Francis Jenkinson (1853-1923), Cambridge University Librarian and dipterist, who would have loved to have seen it. #WildWebsWednesday #Hoverflies #Diptera

If you read with concern that recent heatwaves resulted in the London Ambulance Service's busiest ever day, issues with equipment + cooling systems in hospitals, you may be interested to know that MPs are asking the gov't to prepare the NHS for extreme heat: hansard.parliament.uk/Lords/2026-0...

Earlier this week for instance, @earlrussell.bsky.social asked the gov't to explore measures such as air-to-air heat pumps, which can be used for cooling or heating, in hospitals, solar + battery storage - to cushion the NHS from the impacts of climate change. hansard.parliament.uk/Lords/2026-0...

It remains to be seen which recommendations the government will adopt. One thing is certain, as climate change drives more extreme heat, business as usual will not be an option: www.euronews.com/health/2026/...

Happy 😊 Canada 🍁 🇨🇦 Day everyone! #Canadastrong

Evening folks. I will repost some #BOTD entries now. Sorry can’t comment. Repost means step! 🕺💃🍺🍾🍻🥂✨ The threat of thunderstorms hung over me on my hike here today. You can see the rain curtains moving along the valley. The sky is untouched and as I saw it. #Ireland #photography #ECK

The house sparrows dust-bathe so frequently at this corner that they've created little semi-permanent basins. Bird architecture

39 House Martin nests at Dunstall Park, Wolverhampton: 30+ occupied by House Martins & 1+ by House Sparrows #30DaysWild @the-wildlifetrusts.bsky.social @ecorecord.bsky.social

House Sparrows in America are obviously controversial, but it’s not their fault and I really like this photo #birding #indiana #wildlife #photography #birds #nature #birdphotography 🪶

Tapping noise at the window. The sparrows are picking ants off the windowframe.

Sad to see the Babylon Fire in Utah has resulted in the closure of the Needles District of Canyonlands National Park. Here’s a view of Chesler Park, a strenuous but absolutely amazing hike there. #nationalparks #canyonlands #photography #art #southwest Prints —> adamjewell.com/featured/che...

It was amazing. Athens had a mysterious power. @botanical.bsky.social  @bskyphotos.bsky.social

Peak time for the Marble White in the chalk grasslands of Cherhill. Yesterday, I saw dozens of these beauties flying around the White Horse and the monument, a wonderful sight. @savebutterflies.bsky.social @nationaltrust.org.uk

@suewho82.bsky.social Happy Wacky Wednesday, 🐝! 😃☮️💙😽

I got to be here today 😍

This is awful — sadly resident complaints of chemical odours in Cheshire have not gone away. Fenceline communities must stand together to fight industrial pollution

For Rob’s alt theme #paridae #BirdOfTheDay Back in a couple of hours to do some BOTD reposts. Got absolutely soaked, so shower and some grub first. Hope you’ve all been behaving. 😁 #birds #photography #ECK

The only thing flat earthers fear... is sphere itself.

🇨🇦 Happy Canada Day! 🇨🇦 Here are some of the cephalopods found in Canadian waters, from the Atlantic and Pacific coasts! (Not to many iNat observations from the Arctic though...)

Extrdonary stuff. My friend had a farm next to the golf course and it was common knowledge in the late 60s that ICI were coming at midnight and just getting rid of all the drums of acid on the golf course,” says Dave Parry, a former Malkins Bank employee.
