Today, in the mild stillness at dawn, a song thrush sang for the first time in four months. Nowhere near his full-bodied spring best of course, yet still glorious. I’m reminded of just how much I love his voice, his beauty and exuberance.

1/2 Is it just me, or can anyone else imagine four Hobbits hiding from a Black Rider along this path on Wenlock Edge? Or Gandalf striding out beneath that ancient yew tree? There were plenty of opportunities to let my imagination wander on a day spent... #Shropshire

Last Wednesday, England confirmed it had joined Scotland in fully complying with the sand eel fishing closure.
After 25 years of campaigning, its a huge win for Puffins, Kittiwakes and marine life.
Thanks to everyone who helped make it happen! #WorldSeabirdDay

Will the recent concern about the state of the Oceans produce yet more talk and hand-wringing, or will governments step in and take decisive action by banning bottom trawling and dredging? They need to realise that there is nothing more important to our survival than the health of the natural world.

This is what roadside verges should look like in April. These are not weeds - they are wildflowers essential to the survival of early Spring bees.
