Rescued an injured barn owl 2 weeks ago. Those brilliant folks at RSPCA East Winch Wildlife Centre sorted him out and we got to release him this week.

Gannet chicks are set to be hunted and killed. It was given a green light by @naturescot.bsky.social - an organisation that supposedly cares about nature.

Shame on them.

We're furious! Our gov petition to end the Badger cull hit 100k signatures, and we have heard absolutely nothing from them. They do not care.

My dad had terminal cancer and said to me, a vet nurse, "if I was a dog you could put me to sleep". I am pleased it's been voted through too.

Great idea if everyone behaves responsibly but I work on an NNR and thus morning I was picking up nappies from the car park and dog poo bags from down rabbit holes. It's 💔

🦇 June is here!

Female bats usually give birth to a single baby, called a pup, which they feed on their milk. Young bats are very small (less than an inch) and pink with little to no fur. They will soon grow a thin, slightly grey fur.

Listen up! It is baby bat season! Please, please, please keep your cat indoors overnight for next few weeks. Seeing multiple cat-damaged or killed bats, some with babies attached.😪 Bats can live >20 years and have just 1 baby/year, so now's a critical time. # bats #cats #conservation #wildlife 🦇
