I've been working on an 11.25ha woodland creation in Leathley, North Yorkshire, planting nearly 14,000 trees through the @WoodlandTrust's #GrowBackGreener scheme. Created with #Nature & #Biodiversity at its heart. See full video: youtube.com/watch?v=Qrz3f_…

Please get in touch with Anne if you are available to help. Thank you

Whenever I'm up in Dublin, it's always a joy to see the wildflowers in Trinity College Dublin, with big pollinator hits like knapweed, bird's foot trefoil, + yarrow. It may not be everyone's cup of tea, but that's the point: in a worsening biodiversity crisis, it's *mind-shifting*.

Great to be continuing the work with the Royal Botanic Gardens Edinburgh on the re-introduction of alpine blue sow-thistle to the estate. Based on the success of the planting to date, last week a further 250 plants were added to each of the Mar Lodge sites.

Freshwater Habitats Trust are back at Boltby Reservoir #Thirsk in North Yorkshire this winter to continue management of this #PriorityPond. Working with York. Dragonfly Grp. and BC Yorkshire. If you are in the area come and join us! message me Anne Carter for more info!

Fantastic to spend a few days at Wakelyns farm in Suffolk earlier this month for the NCFed Gathering. These alley systems are reminiscent of field patterns in Estonia that came about through ancient bog drainage, and managed in a similar fashion to those ancient agro-foresters!

A massive thank you to all who came along to today's community work day! We planted a huge 4,500 limestone plants as part of the restoration of the Thornborough Henges, in partnership with English Heritage & Tarmac. Fantastic effort!! 🌸🌱🌼 The National Lottery Heritage Fund North

Recent rain is filling up these new scrape features nicely. Installed as part of @nidderdalenl #wetlandcreation project, this previously homogenous rushy valley bottom has been transformed into a vibrant new habitat

📢Delighted to announce my big new #publication in the journal #Restoration #Ecology is now available online & #OpenAccess: "Montane willow scrub restoration in Scotland: reviewing 30 years of progress to reestablish the altitudinal treeline" (🧵1/10) 👉onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/re…

We've secured #SkiddawForest, but that's just the start – now, our 100-year vision for the site can begin. Here's what we have planned 🌳🌱🦅⬇️ Our restoration fundraiser is nearly at 50% – could you get us over the halfway mark? Donate here 👇 wtru.st/Skiddaw-Forest… (1/5)

Over 500 wildflowers of five species were planted by staff & volunteers yesterday. We're currently planting on the banks of the river Duddon alongside a footpath. It's going to be great for pollinating insects & will look great too. Wild Haweswater Faculty of Environment - University of Leeds Earth and Environment at Leeds

Blog #74 in our #YorkshireIn100Species series features the impressive Giant Horntail and its parasite, the Sabre Wasp. Their fascinating host-parasite interaction plays out hidden from view in deadwood... Dan Lombard of Wold Ecology introduces us: neyedc.org.uk/100-species/20…

A cold, sunny and productive day for our volunteers spent planting local seed, potting on seedlings, building cold frames to shelter the plants and making bird boxes. Hot chocolate provided 😉 Interested in joining in? Email us at [email protected]

Rewarding task today planting out junipers grown from cuttings by Elaine, Jules and Alan. On Fylingdales Moor in the North York Moors NP with the Hoots volunteers. Thanks @WhitbyBotanist for leading today. @WhitbyNats

November's #MapOfTheMonth features drone work undertaken by our intern, Rob, investigating the possibilities of using our UAV drone technology to map scrub encroachment on protected grassland sites ⬇️ neyedc.org.uk/updates-insigh…

A real honour to be nominated for Young Changemaker of the Year in the National Park Protector Awards. How fortunate I am to have a great job, working with great people, to achieve great things 🌳🌼

Nice to see this exhibition some of which was done on our farm. Highlight seeing the colour from our dyersgreenweed something from a bygone time perhaps. Sam Newton David Renwick North York Moors NP #Ryevitalise

We haven’t lost *half of our hedgerows* since the 1940s, we’ve lost pretty much all. With the odd exception, the ‘hedgerows’ that remain are machine-flailed to lifelessness, leaving them useless for wildlife. No width or depth, no cover, no spring blossom, no berries, nada.

It’s been yet another incredible year on the dung beetle front from running loads of training workshops all over the British Isles to consulting, lecturing, surveying, giving interviews, writing articles & educating on a variety of social media platforms. I even went
