Orthosia incerta Variable Kätzcheneule
Orthosia cerasi Rundflügel-Kätzcheneule
Orthosia gothica Gothica-Kätzcheneule
Orthosia miniosa Rötliche Kätzcheneule
Kätzcheneulen: Now is the peak of the Orthosia season in Berlin. Six species (out of 9 in Berlin & Brandenburg) came to the light yesterday. #teammoth, #moth, #stadtnatur, #berlinbiodiversity, #berlin, #urbanbiodiversity
Must be pretty disappointing for a journalist to write up a story like this then have an editor put a negative click bait headline on it.

My Easter present 2026 - my first female Endromis versicolora Birkenspinner at the light in Berlin. A real beauty. Widespread but rare in and around Berlin. #teammoth, #moth, #stadtnatur, #berlinbiodiversity, #berlin, #urbanbiodiversity
There are several pairs of red-necked grebes breeding in Berlin. Now it's a good time to observe them - some pairs are well habituated and don't care much about humans. Seen 27th March 2026. #stadtnatur, #berlinbiodiversity, #berlin, #urbanbiodiversity
Achlya flavicornis Gelbhorn-Eulenspinner
Still, yellow-horns are the most common macro-moth on my light trap in Berlin. Seen 24th March 2026. #teammoth, #moth, #stadtnatur, #berlinbiodiversity, #berlin, #urbanbiodiversity

takes ages before your box would be seriously affected. And even then, your box would be part of natural cycles, contributing nutrients
Plastic is dead. It never contributes. It only pollutes.

There's work to do, but we could use this like a 'liveability' score for nature, benchmarking streets, informing residents' choices, driving investment in #urbanBiodiversity

Spring is coming at the @cienciasulisboa.bsky.social campus!
An #apismellifera visiting #trifoliumnigrescens reminds us how #urbanbiodiversity supports vital #ecosystemservices: From #pollination to healthier #greenspaces, even tiny interactions help keep city ecosystems thriving.

Wildlife is down 73% in 50 years. But 5 cities — Barranquilla, Belém, Durban, Incheon & San Francisco — are proving urban growth and biodiversity can coexist. Real projects, real results. 🌿🏙️ happyeconews.com

Cities were built for humans, what if buildings also protected birds, bees, bats, wildlife? https://t.ly/stkow

Sunny and very warm days in Berlin. Comfortable conditions to enjoy some birds in Berlin (and forget what happens in the world). #stadtnatur, #berlinbiodiversity, #berlin, #urbanbiodiversity
Meanwhile, a few hundred metres from #Brisbane CBD.... it's where you find it. Just gotta look.

Three months, no moth, what a pain. But only days after weeks of frost had ended in Berlin, four species came to the light yesterday. My first mothing in 2026, love when nature unfolds step by step. #teammoth, #moth, #stadtnatur, #berlinbiodiversity, #berlin, #urbanbiodiversity

A call to step outside, learn with First Nations, and create new urban rituals of care for the more-than-human city. 🌱

Spring is in the air, despite the snow.

We spent a nice day - with so many others recreation seekers - in the snow at Tempelhofer Feld / Berlin. For me naturally the tame kestrels are always a highlight. Good that we have this place in the city. #thfbleibt, #TempelhoferFeld, #stadtnatur, #berlinbiodiversity, #berlin, #urbanbiodiversity
Exploring the diversity literally outside my door. Found this wonderful springtail, maybe Entomobrya atrocincta, in the leaves decaying next to my front door.

Moth are gone, so more time for lichens. Made a small lichenological survey in my neighbourhood - this should be Xanthomendoza ulophyllodes. Looks like X. fallax, but was on bark and X. fallax should be on stones. #teamlichen, #lichen, #stadtnatur, #berlinbiodiversity, #berlin, #urbanbiodiversity
Polycauliona polycarpa was always missing from my lichen lists in Berlin - finally today I found some in the inner city. Most likely I have overseen this tiny species for long. #teamlichen, #lichen, #stadtnatur, #berlinbiodiversity, #berlin, #urbanbiodiversity
Today I found Enchylium tenax directly in front of our door in Berlin. While I am looking out for lichens since several years - I had completely missend this. Not a rare species - but defintively underrecorded. #teamlichen, #lichen, #stadtnatur, #berlinbiodiversity, #berlin, #urbanbiodiversity
