Alright new followers.
About me,
Been a birder since 2021, might be fanatical about it.
Parkrun will always be great.
Iron Maiden (June 25th, Dublin)
If there’s a new way
I’ll be the first in line
But it better work this time

Life is meaningless
Our future is in ashes
The world is burning
Societal apathy has rendered us helpless
No one will save me

Sir Keir Starmer has been specifically named in a UN report for complicity in Israel's genocide.
The report states that the UK government played "a key role in military collaboration with Israel... a collective crime... with detailed knowledge and cooperation in the destruction of Gaza." 🧵

Quick Cop 30 update:
Leaders haven’t done shit to protect the planet, and they won’t start now.
Starmer only listens to lobbyists anyway.
Nobody will save us.
Fuck Starmer

In just two months, nearly half of Hektoria Glacier on the Antarctic Peninsula disintegrated — retreating 8 kilometers, the fastest glacier retreat ever recorded in modern history.

I’m more confused than ever 😂
Decent scares, exposition heavy, alright I guess.
Now, can someone talk to me about that ending?
Who is Beverly?

Concerning thread.
Certainly throws the idea of wildfowl vagrancy in doubt. Especially Garganey….

Interesting(!) that these captive-bred ducks for sale in East Yorkshire seem to be unringed in very many cases. Baikal, Blue-winged, Green-winged Teals, plus Garganeys. Dread to think how many end up in the wild and in local bird reports... #ukbirding

The fact I can see Raven and Buzzard from the house.
Yellowhammer, not so much.

Raven, Red Kite, Buzzard, which when I first visited Norfolk in the early 1980s was unimaginable, I was used to seeing them all in Wales, but there Waxwing was an unlikely sight.
