Violet Oil Beetles, found on Higher Comfort nature reserve.
They like species-rich grassland and woodland edges, which are exactly the habitats we're developing on the nature reserve. They parasitise solitary bees, so are an indicator of a healthy wild bee population.

Thanks to the generosity of three very talented artists, we're able to sell these beautiful cards on our website.
All proceeds go towards preserving and enhancing habitats on the Culm Measures and raising awareness of their importance.

🦇 We are looking for Trustees who can bring fresh ideas and new perspectives and are able to join in time to stand for election at our Annual General Meeting in September 2025.

More info: www.bats.org.uk/the-trust/jo...

Wondering what Trustees do? Read this thread where we break it down.
Trustee - Bat Conservation Trust - Jobs / Contracts - Bat Conservation Trust
The role of Trustee is not a paid role, although travel and subsistence to attend board meetings will be covered.

DEFRA pulled the Sustainable Farming Incentive last night, with no notice. This will be a great loss for landowners trying to improve habitats, financial devastation for some environmental consultants and a great loss for biodiversity.
Dyson and Clarkson don't care. There will be no protests.
