A great time planting trees with the #UBoC team but I think my mattock skills for clearing the sward still need some work… @canopyrobin.bsky.social 😂 ⛏️
These were our first two trees planted today and I think @sophiebrandon.bsky.social and I started with the right energy. Lots of great progress with the #UBoC team at Snaizeholme today!

We might not have made it to #BES2024 this year but we've been out in the field, working hard to maintain our research woodland and create new data on woodland creation in the UK

Industrial farming is choking our planet . Yet at a time when we should be supporting farmers to invest in restoring nature and transitioning away from destructive animal ag , the news that government have slashed wildlife-friendly budgets even further is just plain insanity .

The number of pheasants released into Britain's countryside has increased TEN FOLD since Roald Dahl wrote Danny the Champion of the World.

I went for a walk in pheasant country for the @CountryfileMag Plodcast - have a listen here:
