Is there a 'war on the countryside'? Yes - but it's the one being waged by the landowners who unleash 50 million pheasants each year... Step forward 'Lord' Christian Brighty to explain, in this devastating (and hilarious) video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=XFi8...

Greenfinches. When these birds start to bathe seriously, you know the camera lens is going to get a soaking. Their furious wing flapping can be heard at a distance. Field Maple and plenty of shallow bathing is the way to attract them. @dorsetbirdclub.bsky.social @btogbw.bsky.social

Mellow fruitfulness? Walking along this beautiful Dorset lane we could smell it from 30 yds - the Stinkhorn, in all it's autumnal glory. Interesting to see how it had forced itself into the daylight, pushing the soil aside. The surrounding bushes were filled with small insects & Long-tailed tits. 🍄
