1. There are a number of similarities between what has been happening to the crustacean population along the south coast and the NE, notably the connection with sediment, but there are crucial differences.

An amazing #WildFlowerHour to close what felt like a very springlike day! Lovely to see so many gorgeous flowers & their #sepals, that was a great @wildflower_hour challenge set by the fabulous @botany_beck! I wonder what she'll choose for the next challenge? See you next Sunday!
Barren Strawberry ‘Potentilla sterilis’, Common Chickweed ‘Stellaria media’, Daisy ‘Bellis perennis’ and Lesser Celandine ‘Ranunculus ficaria’ #Sepals #wildflowerhour ♥️

We’re trying to get as many followers as Rishi Sunak so we can show the government just how many people are prepared to fight for the NHS and its staff. Please can you help by following us and retweeting this?

A superb event today. Really proud to have co-organised it & the presentation by @NickMarriner1 was so engaging & informative. Was also a pleasure to invite local environmental organisations to showcase their public events, campaigns & volunteering. Same time next year, Nick? – at South East, England

Absolutely wild! And unprecedented ⚡: When the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai volcano erupted in January 2022, it triggered 5,000 lightning events in the first 5 minutes. Within six hours that number climbed to 400,000! Nothing like it recorded before cnn.com/2023/01/08/weather/t…

🚲🚲 What a success story ➡️ Compared to 2019, almost twice as many people now live near a high-quality cycle route in London 🇬🇧. Latest @TfL data shows that levels of cycling increased by 40 %‼️ Build it 🚲 and they’ll come👇👇 lnkd.in/grnDcvVA

A scientist has found that 53 sea creatures previously though to be silent can actually communicate, including sea turtles that sing from within their egg to synchronise hatching 🎶 🐢🥚 We learn more about the ocean every day 🌊 ⁦@BBCNews⁩ bbc.co.uk/news/science-envir…

Thank you for highlighting the hidden plight of marine habitats, and the role coastal communities take in protecting and restoring what is being lost. Big up the burrowed mud!
Great discussion with @CreelScff, @WWFScotland & @seawilding, surfacing the wonders under our seas and how we can work together to regenerate them, for abundant fisheries + strong coastal communities. At #sgpconf @scottishgreens
