We have just finished a project to install 71 swift bricks in houses in S.E. Sheffield. We at Sheffield Swift Network received a small grant from the Council's species survival fund grant for Shirebrook Valley (DEFRA finded)
Watch below to hear the voices of the recipients. Nature matters in Housing

Tonight's visitor

#FirstBirdIfMyDay calling lesser black backed gulls flying at sunrise from their city centre river roost over my area at 5am to the reservoirs at the south east of the city. Same yesterday but a bit later with a large orange sun as the backdrop looking like a scene from lion king

Well a member of my local bird group recorded this blackbird singing Barbie Girl this morning. And my clever friend @britishfilmstardom.bsky.social created the video below. 💕

Fox and badger happily eating together in my garden. The fox is chewing a date. 🦡🦊 #Sheffield
