Starling murmurations are notoriously unpredictable but it looks like numbers are building at Whisby Nature Park. While there's no guarantee they'll stay or put on a display, the best chance of seeing them is on the southern shore of Grebe Lake from about 3.30pm.

Like Christmas decorations, 22 Corn Buntings have returned to their pre-roost Sycamore in late afternoon sunshine at Gib Point. Always a pleasure to hear their clicking flight calls as they dash over the saltmarsh @lincsbirding.bsky.social @lincswildlife.bsky.social

This is a fantastic site, and well worth supporting if you are able. As good as it is (& I’ve been watching it for c25 years) it has the potential to be even better with appropriate management. A great opportunity for nature recovery in this intensively farmed county #lincsbirding
We have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to save one of the largest areas of grassland left in Lincolnshire. Can you help us purchase and protect Hawthorpe for nature before it is ploughed and lost forever?

We're very pleased to be taking part in this weekend's Horncastle Christmas Tree Festival, adding our own nature and wildlife-inspired decorations to this lovely local tradition. If you're in the area this weekend pop into St Mary's Church, a stone's throw from our headquarters in Manor House Street

What’s Amendment 130 and why does it matter?
It ensures the new planning system works with nature, not against. It will:
🌳 Protect wildlife - without it, nature & development both lose out.
✅ Provide certainty in planning.
💚 Please stand with nature 👉 action.wildlifetrusts.org/page/180301

Third time lucky! Finally caught up with the stunning pair of Glossy Ibis at Deeping Lakes NR today. Watched the closer one for ages, probing stranded algae for pond snails, preening and generally living its good life...just wonderful!

Huge thanks to everyone who helped clear 244kg of rubbish from the beaches at Chapel Point, Gibraltar Point and Anderby Creek this weekend. 'Finds' included fishing nets, a sock, empty bottles of beer and vodka, two Crocs (not a pair!) and plastic nurdles from the tanker collision in the spring.

Last chance to see the fabulous "Sounding The Wash" exhibition: to hear the underwater thuds, bubbles and gurgles; to wonder at the call of golden plover made visible in porcelain; and to consider the thoughts of a green sea urchin 👇🌊

Call in any time 10am - noon. The exhibition then closes at 1pm.
