This plant is driving me a little nuts. There are several growing in a 20m stretch. Can any helpful botanists shed any light please? Growing on edge of forestry track, acid, dry, rocky area. North Wales. #wildflowerID #wildflowerhour
10 a day keeps the doctor away! Bumblebees show remarkable consistency in their foraging breadth, regardless of species, site or season🐝What could be driving this behaviour? More in our new paper: rb.gy/gtrxvp with @NdeVere @IanVaughan21 @Zwickynova @AER_ESE_BES

If you've ever wondered just how small Red-necked Phalaropes really are, they're this small ⬇️ Mallard duckling for size comparison...
SHRILL CARDER BEE! We found one! This is Jacqui James, @camZoology researcher, working with farmers, @BumblebeeTrust @nationaltrust & @RestPoll on the urgent conservation of this species (Bombus sylvarum), in the most threatened of its 5 surviving UK populations, south Somerset.
We are buzzing to have won a silver-gilt medal for our Diversity is Queen exhibit at #RHSChelsea Flower Show🐝 In partnership with @GroundControlGC , our exhibit showcases various habitats supporting some of our common and scarcest bumblebees🏞️ 🤝@habitat_aid @FlyingFlowersUK
As #NoMowMay begins please take a minute to enjoy what can be achieved. Grandfather kept the sides of the drive like a lawn and 20 years of an annual mow rather than a weekly one this is the result (20th April) @LEAF_Farming @NFFNUK @FarmWildlifeUK
Bumblebee queens are emerging. I keep finding them resting on the ground. Several Early Bumblebees today and yesterday this Heath Bumblebee - Bombus jonellus. Check out the pale hairs on the hind leg. @BumblebeeTrust
Three oil beetles seen over three days. Two Black Oil Beetles (m&f) and today a Violet Oil Beetle (m). Nice to have both species so close to home #OilBeetleHunt @OilBeetlesUK
We need to be strategic about where we plant trees. Rigorous assessments and safeguards are needed to protect important habitats, like flower-rich grasslands from being planted on. Fair incentives will ensure we restore the diversity of habitats that nature depends on. 🧵4/8

We planted this new hedge 9 years ago and are delighted that this week the laying has started! I’m loving seeing it done and know I’m not alone - good for the hedge, the wildlife, the farm and the soul!
