Please have your say on banning fireworks! It's not just animals that suffer from the noise, but humans with health conditions like dementia, PTSD as well. Plus fire risks, air pollution and physical pollution (litter and microplastics). www.gov.uk/government/c...

I've finally sorted through the thousands of images and videos, of hundreds of species taken during a 3 week adventure in SE Asia. One stand out image for me so far, is of a couple of Fiery gem males during their non contact contest over territory. Not a sharp image by any means i know.

Now to work through and share some of the amazing things we saw during a trip of a lifetime. Our first nights wildlife wander was down by a stream where we had an amazing snake encounter. youtu.be/EW8tHPskIUo #Khaosok #Thailand #snakes

I first saw this small 'swarm' of Honey bees on this headstone a week ago whilst looking for a Badger sett. Last night whilst releasing a rescue Badger cub at the site we noticed that the 'swarm' now had settled status.

In the safety of darkness the beaver kits have started to come out on a regular base, still staying close to either their parents or siblings. The adults and 1 year olds are busy bringing branches close to the lodge so the youngsters have lots to nibble on. youtu.be/ou_tgqddtjM
