A scheme to save a colony of Tree Sparrows at Beddington, in Sutton borough (London), failed miserably. Promises made by the developer were not kept. Let’s not make the same mistakes twice for the same species.

Devastated this evening to find this field by main pit @TyttGP mown with Skylarks and Reed Buntings hopping around - presumably wondering where their nests have gone 😡 Not to mention the wealth of #butterflies we were expecting! #hertsbirds

⁦@Hertsbirds⁩ ⁦⁦@SaveTyttGP⁩ Walking the wide open spaces around Coursers Farm it’s hard to imagine 6,000 houses being built - and yet that is what is proposed! Plenty to see - I almost dismissed 2 hares as earth lumps until I zoomed in on its eye! #hertsbirds

@Willows_Farm is it really necessary to have a guy with a gun sitting in the middle the Amaizing Maize field shooting?! There are many species of birds enjoying the seeds and many of them occurring in unusually high numbers. Please put a stop to it now! #hertsbirds @TyttGP
