Very well organised with real challenges eg: the need for plants to be included in schools, the hope for the GCSE in ntrl history,FUN and FIELDWORK are vital, training for BNG surveys, AI - what it can do for you AND vice- versa and the use of botany in land management and climate change.
My first-time attendance at the @bsbibotany.bsky.social conference was equally a great excuse to go back to Edge Hill University today! It was very thought provoking and it has encouraged me to apply for a place onto the BSBI Identiplant course next year! #botany #bsbi #ecology

Top investigative work here
It has taken over two years for @vc40ladybirds.bsky.social & I to attract another Willow Ladybird (Scymnus limbatus), an extremely small & elusive species, to the refugia we designed in an attempt to learn more about them. It has been a long wait but we found one yesterday, plus an Anthocorid bug

🪱 Today's #InvasiveAlienSpecies is Platydemus manokwari, the New Guinea Flatworm.
📍 It is a versatile and adaptive predator that has few natural limiting factors.
👉 It feeds on a variety of invertebrates and land snails, potentially altering the soil food web.

Just donated to this because @rsmythfreelance.bsky.social told me to and because I'm not going out for any staff meals or whatever this Christmas. Most of you would probably be happier missing your work do and donating to this too.
As winter starts to bite, please think of the refugees and asylum seekers who depend on organisations like ours for food and shelter on a freezing cold day.
Just £5 could buy a hot meal for someone at one of our winter Drop-ins. Visit www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/stand-with... Every donation doubled. 🙏

Confiscating jewellery from survivors of a war zone makes you look like a fucking Nazi. And the obscene thing is, that is the intention. It's there to look appropriately harsh. Indecent. Filthy. A moral stain. And no-one of good character would have ever proposed such a thing in the first place.
