@suffolk-nats1929.bsky.social Could I please ask whether non members can attend your meetings? Namely was interested in the moth meeting at Raydon Wood, 14 Aug. Would we need to book?
@bc-cornwall.bsky.social Clouded Yellow today in Camborne by surgery in Rectory Road.
@bobbosisto.bsky.social Bob, do I need to do a rarity submission for Booted Eagle both for BBRC and to you, or one to you which is then passed on to them? And what about the Red-backed Shrike at Trevilley last Sept? Description needed? Obviously have good pics of both. Could you let me know? Thanks
@bsbibotany.bsky.social I would like to know why you deserted all your loyal followers on X? Just don't get it.
Quail singing 10 pm onwards Ubley Warren near Charterhouse, audible to north of layby on minor road between Ubley Warren and Velvet Bottom. @somersetbirds.bsky.social @julianthomas19.bsky.social
An excellent nomination. I'd also say the Purple Emperor was a great shout. How good would His Imperial Majesty (not that other one) look on a tenner?
I nominate Lady’s-slipper Orchid for the £20 note. Spectacular, iconic, flamboyant and coming back from the brink thanks to conservation efforts #notjustaboutanimals @bsbibotany.bsky.social @plantlifeuk.bsky.social @wildflowerhour.bsky.social
Very well summarised, Steve.👌
Sensational news broke on the 27th Apr (13:22pm) of a dark ph Booted Eagle at Porthgwarra. Perry Smale was in the right place when this gorgeous raptor drifted past him at Roskestal Farm. He observed it for three minutes as it headed for St. Levan church. Pics courtesy of P.Smale. #cornwallbirding
