I’ve a load of old magazines I want to dispose of. Complete sets “BTO News” and RSPB “Birds” both from 1986- to-date. Let me know [email protected]. Maybe a library or institution you know may be interested?
If I still have them in the New Year, then regrettably, they’re going to recycling.

We did a fair bit of herping after dark with the added bonus of coming across other animals like this beautiful little Jeboa who wasn't at all bothered by me 🥰

Anyone in the #peakdistrict today see what looked like four Ospreys heading towards Sheffield near Curbar Edge? Was it?

If you are craving some more live Falcon nest action now the Sheffield Peregrines have fledged then check out this Hobby Cam from Dorset. Thought to be the only live Subbuteo nest cam in Europe this year #ukbirding

Hail Mary post here - but I just lost a nice little pannier bag somewhere in Cat Lane woods and didn't have time to go back for it (plus its like the Blair Witch project in there - I wouldn't even know where I'd been) it's blue and green, Linus brand and had a can of cherry coke in it. #sheffield

Here’s the “Salmon of Steel” statue in Sheffield. Had a brilliant afternoon at the University of Sheffield, speaking with the Editors & Publishers Network. It reminded me how journals are a labour of love. We must withdraw our uncompensated labour from supporting unscrupulous commercial publishers.
