So pleased that Edgbaston Pool SSSI has recently reopened - a real ecological jewel in south Birmingham. On Wednesday there were three Little Grebes, about thirty Black-headed Gulls, a few Shoveler, and nine (nine!!) Herons!

Walked through the magnificent Moseley Bog yesterday. Saw Grey Wagtails hopping about the streams, and even heard a cronking Raven. It's said to have inspired the Old Forest in Lord of the Rings. Thankfully no otherworldly creatures, only a few friendly dogs! @the-wildlifetrusts.bsky.social

A phenomenal @wildsummituk.bsky.social in Bristol yesterday, with colleagues from across the nature sector. A privilege to speak on the opening panel, on how Govt can best meet its 2030 nature targets. Also thought-provoking to hear debates on nature finance, farming, planning and beyond!

Long Meadow, Eastcote yesterday evening, a final glimpse of August sunlight peeking through the canopy. A fairly quiet visit, apart from a few Blue Tits, Long-tailed Tits and a very noisy Nuthatch!

Spent the weekend at a young nature writers' retreat in the New Forest. It was a privilege to learn useful writing tips, meet like-minded young naturalists and speak about the practicalities of being a writer. Thank you to the Cameron Bespolka Trust for an inspiring weekend!

Yesterday it was wonderful to see my friend and fellow @nationalparkcity.bsky.social Ranger Luke Newcombe @grown22.com (and Milo the dachshund). For years, Luke has put the 'green' back in Wood Green. He's created a nature reserve and a parklet, and is now building a greenhouse for a local school!

Deeply sad news that Mathew Frith of @ldnwildlifetrust.bsky.social has passed away. Mathew was a lifelong champion of London's natural environment, playing a major role in the capital's nature recovery for decades. I'm proud to have called him a colleague, mentor and friend. Rest In Peace Mathew 💚

Nature Towns and Cities sounds very promising. Localised interventions to bring back biodiversity in Bristol, Bournemouth, Birmingham and beyond. Also pleased there is funding for the Ealing regional park, of which @brentriverpark.bsky.social will form a part. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Always brilliant to hear about swan-upping, an annual Middlesex tradition. However, it's concerning to read how avian flu has impacted cygnets. Let's hope Middlesex's county bird fares better next year! @russellgrant.bsky.social www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

As always, I thoroughly enjoyed visiting @globalbirdfair.bsky.social yesterday. A chance to catch up with friends and fellow conservationists from across the country. The talks by @theurbanbirder.bsky.social and @rspb.bsky.social Youth Council were also a lot of fun!

It was inspiring to visit the team at @healrewilding.org.uk in Somerset last Friday. Very insightful to hear about their business model, vision and potential income from natural capital. Since 2020, this former dairy farm has become home to beavers, warblers and scores of butterflies!

Lovely to meet you too! Had a brilliant morning at Heal with you and the birding group, and learned so much from Jan in the afternoon about the site's history and management.

Last Sunday marked 50 years of the Brent River Park, a green corridor beginning at the A40 in the north and ending near the Thames in the south. As the Park's special advisor, I was honoured to unveil a commemorative sign in Ealing with Mayor of Ealing, Cllr Anthony Kelly.

A fabulous morning at the London Climate Action Week youth summit, hosted by @metecoban92.bsky.social, @earthminutes.bsky.social and @zslofficial.bsky.social. Inspired by the innovative work of London's young environmentalists to empower our generation. Lovely to see many familiar faces too!

I've been in Lisbon during the past week. Whenever I visit the city centre's green spaces, the birdlife never fails to impress. Spotless Starlings, Treecreepers, Serins, Blue-crowned Parakeets, but above all, stunning Hoopoes!

A fabulous second day at London Open Gardens yesterday. I caught up with some of those who make the City of London havens for communities and biodiversity. Nic Guerra's secret garden by the Tower of London, and the meadows of the @barbicanwildlife.bsky.social, were looking spectacular as ever!

Govt proposals to effectively dismantle ELMS and BNG are incredibly worrying. Sites of all sizes play a crucial role in recovering, restoring and connecting so much habitat across the country. These initiatives have so much potential. Nature cannot afford another regression.

Spent today 'beating the bounds' with @saveleamarshes.bsky.social, a centuries-old tradition marking the Middlesex-Essex boundary along the River Lea. It highlighted both conservation and development projects along its banks, reflecting our dynamic relationship with urban natural heritage.

Your annual reminder that the County of Middlesex still exists! Middlesex may not exist in local government, but it endures as a recognised UK historic county. On 16 May, we celebrate our county's rich history, heritage and natural environment. A very happy Middlesex Day!

The felling of a 450-year-old oak in Enfield is heartbreaking. It's deeply concerning that this could happen so easily. Ancient trees are an integral part of our natural (and national) heritage. We must give them the protection they deserve, enshrined in law. enfielddispatch.co.uk/toby-carvery...
