This evening's Puffin count was bonkers! Good conditions and a minimum of 13,174 rafting birds logged; this was the highest count since 1934 and the earliest five-figure count ever.

When Abusers Get Child Contact....children and women are re-traumatized and placed further at risk. The Family Courts must do more to protect women and children from abusive men. Listen to Ep #250: He Said, She Said: Truth, Trauma and The Struggle for Justice in the Family

Scilly seems to be having multiple Turtle Dove sightings this Spring. These 4 birds have been on St Martin’s for the last few days, but incredibly skittish! Fingers crossed it’s a successful breeding year in UK.

Some nights stay with you. The launch of He Said She Said on 1 May is one I’ll never forget. Baroness Helena Kennedy KC and Kay Burley brought such clarity, fire, and generosity to the conversation—we covered so much, and I’m still thinking about the stories, the solidarity, and the

The message chain shows the interaction between a farmer and me. Another dewpond in to help Tree Sparrows and other farmland birds. This dewpond has taken me 3 years of lobbying. It's so great to see it completed, thanks to the farmer and North Wessex Downs National Landscape. Conservation in action!

Fortunate to witness an astonishing spectacle at the beach tonight: tens & tens of thousands of (mainly Small) white butterflies pouring in over the sea, as far as you could see, to the east & west. Pulses of butterflies swept in-off everywhere, an extraordinary sight. 1/2
