Did you know New Zealand and other south-west Pacific islands have LEAF-VEINED SLUGS?! Unlike their omnivorous European relatives, these unique leaf-mimicking slugs eat only fungi. They breathe mainly through the skin of the back, which is kept moist by secretions passing along the many grooves! 🧪

If you can, please plant a wildlife hedge instead of building a fence! It could help hedgehogs, hoverflies, bats, bumblebees, mice, moths, butterflies, blackbirds, frogs, fieldfares, solitary bees, squirrels... Here’s how: bit.ly/40YAjG7 #nature #biodiversity

If you spend any time in southern Europe next spring or summer look out for this amazing hoverfly, the Band-eyed Dronefly. Any ideas why it evolved eyes like this? I would like to know.

This hoverfly can be found in Southern Europe. If you get close enough it is easy enough to identify with its yellow and black striped eyes.

Three large Wax Cap mushrooms, one large, two small. They have bright, almost glowing scarlet caps and orange stems. They are growing close together, touching, from ground covered in old, dead, dark-colored leaves. They’ve pushed the leaves up a bit

Don't forget to think of the birds and other wildlife in this cold wintry weather. Blackbirds, and other birds in the thrush family (like this gorgeous Fieldfare) go mad for apples! And all wild life needs water... #birds #wildlife #nature #winter #snow 🪶🌿

Today’s #AutumnArrivalSpotlight is the Scaup, the UK’s rarest breeding duck! 🦆 Numbers build in winter as birds arrive from Iceland and Scandinavia, gracing our coastal waters. Look for their striking plumage and rounded heads as they dive in search of mussels & crustaceans.

Can we have a shout-out for the unsung heroes of the insect world? Hoverflies, beetles (like this red soldier beetle), moths and many other insects are important pollinators. To help them (and bees and butterflies), grow nectar-rich flowers and avoid pesticides. #biodiversity #pollinators #nature

A good place to see Silver-studded Blue butterflies is Prees Heath in Shropshire in June. If you find any freshly emerged specimens you may well see ants in close attendance. The larvae of this butterfly is looked after by the ants until it pupates. #butterflies

Help wildlife survive in winter: 🌱 Don’t cut back plants: birds feed on some seedheads 💧 Offer fresh water: natural sources may be frozen 🦔 Keep a corner wild for hibernating animals 🍏 Feed the birds: they lose weight quickly when it’s cold 🐝 Grow ivy: it’s great for wildlife! More: bit.ly/4gcHNKj

A tiny butterfly, one of the smallest in Europe, the Grass Jewel. They are so small that they don't look like a Butterfly when they are fluttering around low growing vegetation. It is worth the effort to get a photo.

This autumn and winter, please consider leaving dead plants in your garden rather than 'tidying' them up. Over the colder months they will provide sheltered spots for hibernating ladybirds and lots of other wildlife 🐞 #gardening #nature #biodiversity

Fruit trees benefit all sorts of wildlife, including bees, bats and birds. But around two thirds of UK orchards have been lost since 1960. Planting an apple tree in your garden or community can really help to boost biodiversity! How to choose one: bit.ly/45AFzhZ #nature #food #biodiversity

A single 400-year-old ancient oak produces 234,000 litres of oxygen a year while soaking up carbon dioxide, and can support more than 2,000 species of bird, insect, fungus, and lichen. Nature is amazing - we need more of it, not less. RT if you agree 🌳
