Monitoring Sculthorpe Moor yesterday resulted in 20 birds, the first Blackcap, plus 5 Chiffchaff, 2 from pervious years, which are more important than new birds, enabling monitoring survival and site faithfulness, and 2 new Cetti's Warblers. @norfolknats.bsky.social @hawkandowl.bsky.social
The @btobirds.bsky.social Birds in Greenspaces is now live. Loved working on this wonderful citizen science project to help us learn more about birds in the pockets of green in between our urban environments. Sign up and grab the brand new app here www.bto.org/get-involved...
If you are looking for something quick and simple to do on a sunny day at this time of year, why not do a Flower-Insect Timed Count?! They can easily be done during an outdoors teabreak or lunchbreak, so take a look below to find out more about what is involved, and how to take part!
Looking forward to it!
It was such a rewarding session. Thank you again, Anthony.
I saw my first one a couple of weeks ago at Suffolk Wildlife Carlton Marshes. And chunky was the word I used too!
Had first peer review back on a proposed book about school gardening and it was positive 😊
#longdistancewalks Boudicca Way Norwich to Diss. 36 miles with churches, lovely lanes, woodland and villages. So many people ready to help long distance walkers - offering apples, directions or toilets!
#allotment We are almost through the brambles and nettles. The shed is in sight. Huge pile of rotting wood to remove.
Pleased I let two of last year’s potatoes grow on this year. A handy crop from the ‘volunteers’ #gardengrowing
#allotment Still tackling the brambles and the mysteries that lie beneath. Window frame about to appear!
There’s a young apple tree near the post! Mission 1 - cut back brambles and nettles to reach it. Pick the blackberries on the way! #allotment
