The wildlife of the west section of Woodgate Valley that lies alongside the M5 appears to be under-watched & under-recorded, despite there being a wonderful mix of habitat with fabulous meadows
100+ species were recorded on Saturday @ecorecord.bsky.social @naturallybham.bsky.social

A guy whose interest in birds rose from @bibbeyswildfarms.bsky.social story found a Robin-like bird on Friday (private land in #WestMidsBirds)
He rang me so I was able to get record shots of this passing female type Black Redstart: our rarest breeding bird
The #BrumBiosphere is producing birders!😎
I’m really looking forward to joining the Birmingham City Council ranger team for a nature walk this Thursday (20th) starting from Eliot Street Recreation Ground, B7 5LX at 11am
It’s a wonderful route embracing Mount Street Park, the canals and Salford Park.
Always plenty to see 😎

Time to reflect on a fabulous experience connecting Brummies with the birdlife of Reddings Lane Park
It was great to feel how proud this community were, knowing that birds like Redwing have flown thousands of miles to seek out food and shelter in their parks

Linnet 565
Chaffinch 350
Goldfinch 20
Greenfinch 15
Yellowhammer 5
Reed Bunting 4

The product will be supplied into the #BrumBiosphere farms supercluster
Here’s an indication of how transformative the #BrumBiosphere will be!

After losing dad this year, his words rang in my ears “climb every mountain and pursue your passion”
Today I’ve changed my life to join with hundreds of others and create positive change together
These gifts (some comical) mark this special day!
