Massive thanks from all the Redwings , Fieldfares , other thrushes and finches , maybe even Waxwings , to this considerate ‘custodian of the countryside’ . No berries on here this winter . . . But don’t worry , our farmland birds are not in critical decline National Farmers' Union





Regarding the recent application by National Farmers' Union to allow 'emergency' use of neonics on sugar beet, this image explains the problem: most of the pesticide goes into soils, leaches into waterways, & is taken up by wildflowers & hedgerows. Only 5% in crop. nature.com/articles/natur…





Thank you Hackney Council for being bold with your #WoodBurning messaging. Would be good to see more local authorities taking this step. London Councils Claire Holland Bev Craig cleanairhub.org.uk/clean-air-info…
