I grow a small clump of irises for cut flowers but this year it’s the berries that stole the show!

The world's deadliest wind farm for birds must be stopped.‼️

We need clean energy, but not like this.

Berwick Bank could kill more birds than any other windfarm on Earth, devastating colonies of Gannets, Puffins and Kittiwakes off Scotland’s coast. 🚨

We support renewables, but not at catastrophic cost to seabirds already in crisis.

Over 3.7 million kilometres patrolled! With 58,727 kilometres walked on foot last year alone, during which 14,326 snares were removed and 642 arrests were made. These numbers tell just part of the story of our 29 SWT/KWS Anti-Poaching Teams.

This is predicted to be one of the most damaging windfarms for birds we are aware of anywhere on the planet.

We support nature positive offshore wind, but this isn’t it. It’s a disaster in the making.
A dark day for Scotland’s seabirds.

We're incredibly concerned that Scottish Government have granted consent for the Berwick Bank offshore windfarm, which could catapult some of our most vulnerable species toward extinction 🚨

We will carefully scrutinise the details and consider our next steps.

@lindacdolan.bsky.social Our gardens are important and can provide vital support for wildlife. Plastic grass is a growing trend and does nothing good for nature. Gov knows it contains toxic chemicals that pollute the soil, water and air. Please sign and share. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...
