OH MY GOD!! These tiny but stunning springtails are Fasciosminthurus quinquefasciatus, a species never before seen in the UK - and yet I found 30+ on the Cornish coast yesterday! Question is, established introduction or overlooked native?? Given location I suspect the latter
Great to see this project officially launched.
Species on the Edge has officially launched!!

This is maddening and there’s no excuse for it.
This is so bitterly disappointing, and stinks of pathetic, "can't do" lobbying by a sector that's had 30 years to prepare
I sometimes wonder if the UK Horticulture sector is one of the least innovative, most dinosaur-like sectors in existence

Heartwarming to find this cosy nest with hair from our two Highland cattle. Long white hairs are Tiree’s, as she has blonde highlights, while ginger fluff could be from Tiree or Cava. Any ideas what bird species? (9cm across, found in gorse hedge) #biodiversity #heilancoos

🚨BREAKING: Russia has been DOWNGRADED on the global civic freedoms index and labeled “increasingly authoritarian” by its authors.
Oh wait, did we say Russia? We meant the UK.
Just when I thought sea slugs couldn’t be any more incredible, along comes this. science.org/content/article/…

Relevant to all of us - not just journalists - who are seeking to tell stories that engage people in the biodiversity and climate crises.
Promoting #climate news is hard. Telling stories that resonate with many different audience is important. Excited to read this report to see if I can learn how to improve how I report climate issues. #scicomm #biodiversity #AcademicChatter
I’m behind with sharing my ‘Nature Positive’ blog posts. This one’s about one of my favourite fish and one of my favourite marine conservationists.
Nature Positive #2 – Byron and the Bed-hopping Blennies
This month’s dose of ‘Nature Positive’ from NBN Trust's CEO, Lisa Chilton, is a window into the intriguing sex life of one of our most endearing coastal fish – the tompot blenny.

One of those stats you read 3 times to be sure you didn’t misread it. Pheasants (the 10s of millions released each year to be shot) make up half of all British birds, by weight, in August. Mind-blowing.
Just looking back at this paper link.springer.com/article/10… by @TimBlackburn66 and @KevinJGaston for a tutorial I'm running on Monday - this really is an extraordinary figure isn't it? 49% of Britain's bird biomass in August is pheasant.
