Dear UK Moth recorders - please can you help Iona Cunningham-Eurich with her PhD research. It's not about the moths but all other species found in moth traps. It would be great for her research & its not onerous :) @BroadGavin Prof Seirian Sumner qualtrics.ucl.ac.uk/jfe/form/SV_55…

If you want to understand parasitoid #wasps - and why wouldn't you! - this is a great piece! Also features a paper we published in 2018 on a new #wasp species with a fun name. theconversation.com/dna-analysis-r…

I’m really proud to share that our paper on the diversity of social complexity in termites has been published!!!

I don’t think that the Houses of Parliament Peregrines have ever received such a loud round of applause than the one given by those marching for nature today Restore Nature Now #RestoreNatureNow

Dear BBC News (UK) we would like to know why you didn’t cover a major news event in #London yesterday. Between 60-100 THOUSAND people marched at the #RestoreNatureNow. It looks like you are picking what you think is newsworthy. Isn’t that called bias? Regards, British wildlife.

You know I love the BBC & celebrate all the things we pay our licence fee for . But yesterday whilst 100K peaceful people marched to demonstrate their love for life all I could find on BBC News (UK) was a selfie of the gas-guzzling Taylor Swift . Im sorry but thats a disgrace

Reminder that the train from Bucharest (Romania) to the main airport was ~1€… 🙃
