As the day shortens you might start to see a change in the behaviour of the little visitors in your garden and local parks. What do you notice?
Nocturnal activity is the result of internal biological rhythms! Learn more through our factsheets: www.bioclocks.uk/factsheets

☀️ Summer is a great time to observe biological rhythms in action. Look at the insect life around you - do they come out at a particular time of day?
🐝 If so, you've found their 'temporal niche'!

Nearly 9 million people in the UK work nights - a practice classified as “probably carcinogenic to humans” by the WHO. The risks of cancer, and a whole host of other conditions, are possibly due to the disruption of #circadian rhythms. So, what can you do to reduce this?
