Low, bright Sunday light feels like Kodachromes of distant relatives, BBC continuity cards of sun through frosty teasels, staticky folk records.
Reminded me of this photo my dad took the day an adoption society worker arrived me with wrapped in her fur coat.

With heavy rains falling, the issue of rising water levels on the Broads has been an increasingly pressing one.

There has been repeated flooding affecting many riverside villages. But juggling diverse needs of fishermen, biodiversity, residents & boat companies is challenging.

Developers pushing ahead without basic wildlife checks is absurd. And when ministers spend more time with builders than conservation experts, the risk grows. We can build new homes, but not by wrecking the habitats that keep our countryside alive. #britishwildlife #uk

Voters want both: homes built and wildlife protected.

MPs should listen to the public, not a false "nature vs growth" narrative.

If nature loses at this stage, it will be because they chose not to protect it.

Help stop the Planning and Infrastructure Bill tearing up nature protections
I've just emailed my MP and asked them to vote to protect nature in the Planning and Infrastructure Bill. Will you take action too?
