Excited to have a ground beetle project @carabidaeuk.bsky.social open for applications in @crocus-dla.bsky.social. Nice mix of analysing long-term data, fieldwork and time at @forestresearchuk.bsky.social, assessing trends in woodland carabids. Please share!

Dad’s books are full of empathy, common sense, and a healthy suspicion of the powerful. But at its heart his work is also about how systems keep people poor while pretending it’s their own fault. So I hope Kemi’s taking notes as well as reading the jokes.

Happy to see the garden getting plenty of visitors! 🐝 And even happier to see a much higher abundance of butterflies this year in comparison to last

Last month, beavers built several dams almost overnight in an area of the Czech Republic where the local authorities had been discussing a dam project for seven years. Having done so ‘without any project documentation and for free’, the beavers saved them about £1 million.
