I am so blown away by & incredibly proud of what Kathleen Harris, Ross Whitaker & team have produced. Each one a total pro at the top of their game. I'm dying for everyone to see it. This new clip is just extremely moving - chills

Eoghan Daltun 🌍 There needs to be a change in the management of the NPWS as clearly the current management do not understand what needs to be done in Killarney NP.

Ridiculous. A county with the only coastal national park and an abundance of wildlife and our council is intent on destroying it.
This drives me NUTS Jane!!! PembrokeshireCC County Council can you please explain what's going on? What is your plan to save pollinating insects and protect roadside verges given we are in midst of #naturecrisis and it's #NoMowMay !! Iolo Williams
Tim Birch PembrokeshireCC BuglifeCymru Plantlife WildlifeTrustSWWales 🦡🐬 Paul Davies MS/AS 🏴 Carolyn Thomas MS / AS Iolo Williams Western Telegraph Fishguard and Goodwick Town Council I’ve been in Pembs for a few days & driving around all the verges were looking very pretty with various wildflowers along the road side very uplifting , until this morning, coming home councils were out with mowers & strimmers, even doing hedges hope no nesting birds in them 🙁
'The suspicion here is that objecting to a word [rewilding], and what it supposedly represents, is easier than objecting to the reality of planned actions on the ground: a way to neatly side-step any meaningful debate.'
Great piece by Ian Carter.

Very handy publication, which says that guillemots and razorbills are protected by law so stay 50m away. So are they protected or not and is it 50m or not? Happily Ceibwr is part of Cardigan Marine SAC so it’s 100m at least in Cardigan Bay. Cyf Naturiol Cymru Mor / Natural Res Wales Marine RSPB Cymru Wildlife Trusts Wales

Tim Birch PembrokeshireCC BuglifeCymru Plantlife WildlifeTrustSWWales 🦡🐬 Paul Davies MS/AS 🏴 Carolyn Thomas MS / AS Iolo Williams Western Telegraph Fishguard and Goodwick Town Council We have to stop keeping people in jobs at the expence of Nature / biodiversity. I am sure most of this destruction is just to keep people employed. This is why grass cutting is so prevalent, councils and others are reluctant to lose workload as warped as it sounds.
