I'm chatting with Pascal, a #blackbird who for the couple of years has adopted us. I bung him a few mealworms, he makes me happy. After a short time away whilst he was moulting, he is back and hungry. How do I know it's him? Well, he only has one leg for a start! #nature #wellbeing #birds

Well, that's our #pumpkin sorted! I adapted a long-eared #bat illustration that I did for the Mammal Society magazine. Have you carved a wild pumpkin? 🦇🎃 @batconservation.bsky.social @mammalsociety.bsky.social @wildlifegardenproj.bsky.social

The Bat Conservation Trust have a great project where you can record the bats in your local area - the pack is easy to order and put up - I've just done mine! Get involved... 🦇https://www.bats.org.uk/resources/nightwatch @batconservation.bsky.social @wildlifegardenproj.bsky.social 🦇

A superb project that needs awareness so the message can spread - if you want to see genuine action against wildlife crime take less than two minutes to see why it is so important... 🦅🪶🦉

Well, that is one more subscriber towards your target! What a great organisation and lovely set up. The animals look very well cared for at a superb second chance at life. Keep it up! 🐎🐏
