A stunning day yesterday for the opening of the new @DorsetWildlife @BrownseaNT wildlife observatory on Brownsea Island - The Fine Foundation Lookout Huge thanks to @HeritageFundL_S lottery players, The Fine Foundation and all our incredible members and supporters ~ @DWTCE
Huge thanks from @DorsetWildlife to the amazing Firefighters at @DWFireRescue @DWFireControl for their prompt action in getting a wildfire under control at Upton Heath. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
🦫Here is the moment beavers returned to Northants for the first time in 400 years. Today we released a family of 8 beavers to the Nene Wetlands nature reserve. Read the full story at wildlifebcn.org/news/beavers-r… Thanks to @AnglianWater & @BeaverTrust for supporting this project
Nine species of finch logged in North Dorset this morning with pride of place going to a dozen Hawfinches seen near Witchampton. @DorsetBirds
I see David Attenborough is trending. I wish we would actually listen to what he’s saying and act on his most urgent warnings, rather than just saying how much we love him.
Fantastic comparison photo.
How do you tell the difference between a Common Cormorant and a Shag? This picture. This is how:

A tracking study has found that dogs walked off-lead cause significantly more disturbance on lowland heaths than pets kept on the lead: bit.ly/4jgLEIx
Surprised to see early daffodils well out along the A46 near Cheltenham yesterday - and a Yucca! As Fred Trueman used to say on Test Match Special: "I doan't know what's going off out there anymore..."
Levels of Thames Water’s sewage dumping has jumped 40% in just 6 months, bills expected to go up 59% next week and fat cat bosses share a £770,000 reward. Now what was all that bullsh*t about banning bonuses. What else were you expecting? bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
If you're still thinking of serving Scottish salmon this Xmas please watch this stomach-churning video: when you see Scottish salmon it should make you reach for the sick bucket not the shopping basket!
Our footage of the Weston & Banwell Harriers with West Somerset Vale Hunt (their full name!) is highlighted today in Chris Packham’s 20 worst fox hunting crimes. ⬇️
Day 2 of my (b)advent calendar highlighting the top 20 worst fox hunting crimes with @HuntSabs . . . it’s a recent one from the West Somerset Vale Hunt This isn’t trail hunting , it’s wildlife crime . #RealBanNow

Do you have recent photos of Puffins at Dancing Ledge, taken from the sea? David Brown of @nationaltrust needs pictures to work out exactly where to position trail cameras to capture images of Puffins at nest holes next year. They need to work out why nests keep failing.
@GeoffUpton3 @DorsetBirdClub @BTO_Dorset @birdingfox Great to meet you yesterday Geoff. A great event and thanks for organising such and inspiring day.
Raw sewage pouring onto the beach today in Cornwall 🤢 Yes, it had rained heavily for about an hour, but THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE! We need to #EndSewagePollution now. #FloodTheStreets
Roy Dennis has been watching & monitoring wildlife for over 70 years. We really should be listening to him @DefraGovUK @NaturalEngland @NatResWales

Just 7,000 wild cheetah left. Conservationists spend $£mm trying to protect the species & stop the trade in live cubs as exotic 'pets' - then THIS!! @BornFreeFDN @BornFreeKenya @BornFreeUSA @domdyer70 @NickyAACampbell @rickygervais It's not conservation, it's killing for fun. RT
Trophy hunter Cameron Hopkins bragged about killing three Cheetah cubs and posted the dead bodies online. The scumbag even boasted: “My name is Cameron Hopkins and I proudly killed three Cheetah cubs… I’d do it again. 🤬 #EndTrophyHunting NOW! @rickygervais @PeterEgan6
