I spent a lot of my visit to Chester walking along the city walls. This was my favourite bit, around the Kaleyard Gate. In this weekend’s painting, the ancient wall is framed by 18th and 19th century buildings and trees. In the distance is the King Charles Tower. #painting #chester

Great to see so many people at the Dee Trust open evening last night, and a fantastic reaction to my short film. It was a pleasure to make, spending time with the Dee Trust staff and volunteers, and exploring the beautiful, complex and unique River Dee. #conservation #riverdee #waterpollution

Evening light across the #Glaslyn Estuary in North Wales, towards Borth-y-Gest (right) and #Porthmadog harbour (left). The receding tide leaves shifting patterns in the sand, and one of my favourite places to be. #cymru #wales #snowdonia #photohour

"Imidacloprid and fipronil are universal pesticides – if you start putting those things into river environments then you're going to start seeing the collapse of ecosystems because invertebrates are the foundation of those ecosystems."

This is such tragic news. Due to climate change more birds are overwintering in the UK, but that's small comfort.

Heritage is for everyone. And so is this campaign. 💜 Local artist Clare Owens wants you to know — backing Heritage Chester isn't just for big donors. Support starts from just £2 for a whole year of inclusive heritage experiences. Back us on Spacehive 👉 www.spacehive.com/heritageches...

Young people across the UK are shaping a future where nature can thrive. Our Young Wildlife Conservationist of the Year Award celebrates those whose actions are already making a difference for wildlife — through conservation, creativity, advocacy or campaigning 🏆
