This adorable Long-Tailed Tit has been collecting moss in your feed. (You should probably compliment them now).

A Long-tailed Tit perches on a moss-covered branch, holding a clump of green moss in its beak. Its round body and delicate feathers catch the soft spring light filtering through the trees. The bird faces the camera head-on, giving the impression of being caught mid-task. The moss clutched in its beak adds a touch of comic charm, almost like an accidental moustache. The scene is full of gentle energy and the quiet purpose of spring.

Research request: A trans-led study from researchers at Cardiff University is recruiting trans+ people (age 18+) in the UK on the relations between eating disorders, gender diversity and neurodivergence. More info at tinyurl.com/LEADINGStudy1 or email Leading_study@cardiff.ac.uk #Trans #LGBTQIA

Research opportunity flyer for gender diverse participants exploring the relationships between gender identity, neurodivergence, and eating disorders. The poster has a blue background and logos for the LEADING Study, Health and Care Research Wales and the Cardiff University Wales Autism Research Centre.
The text says: We are looking for participants who are: aged 18+ years, fluent in English and based in the UK, trans, gender diverse and/or nonbinary, and have lived experience of an eating disorder, which can be current or historical.
If you choose to participate, you will be asked to complete an online survey about your experiences. The survey will be a mix of multiple choice, scale response, and open text response.

Neurodivergent and gender diverse people may be at higher risk of developing eating disorders (EDs). LEADING study aims to better understand EDs in these groups. #EatingDisorderAwarenessWeek #EDAW2025 #GenderDiversity #Neurodivergence #EatingDisorderAwareness #EatingDisorderResearch

Light purple background with black text “up to 40% of people with an eating disorder also have neurodivergent traits (Nazar et al., 2016; Westwood et al., 2017)“ and graphic depicting white silhouette figures each standing in a circle with the circles slightly overlapping. One of the figures has a rainbow infinity sign on their chest to indicate neurodivergence. There is also a rainbow infinity sign in the area where the circles overlap.

Blue background with text reading “gender diverse people are up to 6x more likely to develop eating disorder symptoms compared to cisgender people (Warrier et al., 2020)“

Light green background with a venn diagram of three overlapping circles in blue, yellow, and teal. The circles are labled “Gender diversity“ (blue), “Neurodivergence“ (yellow), and “Eating disorders“ (teal). Below the graphic, text reads “Amongst gender diverse people, those who are neurodivergent may be more likely to experience an eating disorder“
