Three species of damselfly have emerged from our small garden pond, & are now laying eggs in there. Such beauty, colour & grace is a vivid reminder of the power of freshwater to boost biodiversity, even in the heart of a city. Much else in there as well, including Smooth Newts & Common Frogs.

I wrote about the raccoons of Berlin in my book 'Cull of the Wild' - an interesting case - should they be killed? Should there be a plan to exterminate them? For a broad overview on the ethics behind these decisions, track down a copy or have a listen! www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Clearly given a choice between @wildlifefestival.bsky.social and Glastonbury, there is no doubt where I would rather be! So come along to Cuckmere - amazing speakers, better toilets and far less chance of having your tent pinched!

I'm camping in sedate Alfriston just down the road from the festival. If someone pinches my tent it'd be sold to a Lewes resident for their kaftan. #notglastonbury
