About 4000 of the critically endangered European Hamster Cricetus cricetus live around Vienna, Austria - these were in a cemetery there last week
Taraxacum at 1,400’ in the northern fells of the Lake District today. Any pointers to sp. appreciated (if possible). #InternationalDayoftheDandelion #WildflowerHour #DandelionChallenge @BSBIbotany @wildflower_hour
Having completely failed to properly keep track of my photos of New Forest special Dandelions, here's what I think is Taraxacum anglicum. I could well be wrong! #wildflowerhour #DandelionChallenge @BSBIbotany
Another of the stars of Scilly, Least Adders Tongue (Ophioglossum lusitanicum) 😍 Well past their best but lovely to see a few plants had hung on. #wildflowerhour
Astounding find, Nationally scarce Four-spotted Carrion Beetle Dendroxena quadrimaculata. Lives life Quercus canopy hunting Lepidoptera larvae via scent trails. 2 County records last 30 years, real privilege to see one in SK17 @SilphidaeUk @AshWhiffin @hill_marian #CarrionBeetles
Very exciting news- Pyramidal Bugle (Ajuga pyramidalis), new for the Isle of Mull! I found a few plants whilst out scrambling/ climbing / exploring a couple of days ago, went back the next day and found over 100 plants in two separate areas!
Not a very cheerful post this one .A few weeks back i posted a few shots of Lizard Orchids ,a tiny colony just starting to show ,about 7-8 in all plus one or two Bees . Heres what i found earlier .........Not Happy ! @ukorchids
Found this smart looking Ichneumon wasp today. Despite searching through various books etc, I am stumped as to the identification. Can any fellow entomologists outhere help?
Just look at these weird little freaks

Calling all naturalists in Merseyside! If you know of any old Elm trees which aren’t obviously planted, either growing in woodlands or fields, I’d be interested to know! 🌱❤️ @NMBiodiversity

This faded Large Tortoiseshell butterfly was in Potton Wood Bedfordshire today 13.04.2024, seen doing our weekly butterfly transect walks for @UKBMSLive
This time, Bermuda buttercup, Oxalis pea-caprae; growing at the base of a newly planted imported Date palm on Ryde Esplanade. Formerly restricted to the far SW, this plant is very likely to spread due to repeated introductions via hort. trade & climate change.
Next level pothole, Devon. Has developed its own ecosystem.
I've been kindly sent this picture but I'm unsure of the deer species. Can anyone help identify it so I can let the chap know what species it is? Shame my Dad not around as he would definitely know the type of deer it is.
A trip up to look at the scrape me ,@BrianLaney2 & Tim Rich gave some work to last year for Cotswold Pennycress (Thlaspi perfoliatum) ,a good amount of plants numbering 200+ this morning,a tad windy but some Sun and Male Yellow Hammers looking Splendid @BSBIbotany 🙂🐾🌿
Pearl-bordered Fritillary larvae are now in their final instar, with impressive canary-coloured spines (mini pylon lines...) tipped in black ink. Flying in a month's time. Cotswolds.

European Pond Turtle Emys orbicularis, complete with covering of green algae, out sunning itself at The Lobau, Vienna, Austria last weekend.
How cool is this - a Puffin's secret superpower! After finding a skull the other day, we suddenly remembered we have a special torch now and we can actually try the UV trick 🤓
We were delighted to discover our first Sea Coconut yesterday, a sea bean we never really expected to find here. So we were utterly shocked to stumble upon another on Vatersay this evening! It seemed so improbable we had to sit down for a few minutes while realisation sank in.

@Ralphs_Ian Thanks Ian -think now that my original thought and @BrianLaney2 ie. hippocrepis is the correct ID. It was very small c15 x 15 and <5 cm
@BrianLaney2 @nationaltrust Got my threads tangled and assumed you were talking about Ranunculus (a daft assumption on so many levels!). Probably need to drink morning coffee before attempting Twitter 🤣
@BrianLaney2 Just gone back to 1st principles: 6-7 leaf pairs rules out Astragalus, Onobrychis and lack of hairs rules out Oxytropis. They also seem to have a tiny mucro (a Poland Hippocrepis feature). Shouldn't have doubted my first thought :)
@BrianLaney2 That is what I thought it was when I snapped a quick pic whilst clinging to a windy cliff but couldn't see properly (streaming eyes, hair in face) then had 2nd thoughts when I noticed the purple flower buds in the photo. If everyone thinks its Hippocrepis it'll make life easier!
@BrianLaney2 @nationaltrust After a wet winter, now is your best chance I think 😁 It was doing really well at the site where I saw only a couple of drought-struck plants back in 2022.
