It's almost time for the final week of Springwatch! We've had an incredible two weeks of drama and excitement, and even learned a few things along the way. Tune in to BBC Two from 8pm tonight for all the action from our very own Crom Estate, or catch up on the series so far here: buff.ly/P0iFnnC

Day 4 #30DaysWild First moth trap of June. The male & female ghost moths were definitely the highlight. I’ve never seen a male before; green pug is also a new moth for the garden & peppered moths are one of my favourites @gardenmothscheme.bsky.social #TeamMoth @scotwildlife.bsky.social #Springwatch

Taken on our sunny evening walk a male woodpecker with supper for the hungry chicks. He went into the nest & popped his head out before going back in again Even though we've had them on our bird feeders I'm always surprised how small they are; roughly the size of a blackbird but slimmer #Springwatch

Hi, Yeah, I do pop back from time to time on here, even if I don't post much. It's good to see what's going on. I just post on IG mainly now. It's a shame SW left abandoned many apps but I can understand perhaps why

So in preparation for #Springwatch @bbcspringwatch.bsky.social tonight, here's a few #Insect photos that my husband took, to encourage the grandchildren to care for all creatures "great & small" 😊. They do love a ladybird 🐞. #Nature

The world may be quite turbulent at the moment, but we can all take at least some solace in the fact that bookstores exist.

Currently at Titchmarsh LNR (my localish reserve, once my very local reserve). Things of note (it's too warm really, but) willow warbler, bullfinch, and what I think was an elephant hawk moth caterpillar (tbc)
