Please send this photo to @visitnorway and any other such site to register our disgust at the pathetic, vile, and utterly stupid fisheries directorate in Norway who sanctioned the murder of this visiting Walrus

Anyone know what this might be? Found in a garden shed in Worcester many years ago. Served as my aunts doorstop for years until she gave it to me, because I've always loved it. 10cm diam, 1.2kg Could it be a #ritualobject? @PryorFrancis @DrJaninaRamirez @theAliceRoberts

Happy #MothMonday! Today we're putting our spotlight on the Bright Wave - Idaea ochrata! A small sandy-brown moth with a rather pointed forewing, often fading to a lighter shade of brown! Learn more 👉 butrfli.es/33NUGdE 📸 : Ilia Ustyantsev

Totally perplexed by this. Antennae suggest a moth over hymenoptera. Seen in Devon last night. Even if very worn, stripes don't match any UK Hornet Clearwings. Does anyone know of a Sesiidae sp from abroad it could be?

Huge shock in my Gloucestershire Moth trap today. Thought a Convolvulus Hawk-Moth was a pipe-dream for my garden, so imagine my shock at being greeted by this monster as soon as I lifted the lid. @MigrantMothUK

We landed on the moon. The earth is spherical, 9/11 wasn't an inside job. COVID-19 isn't the flu. Vaccines don't give you autism. Mandatory face masks won't prevent you from using cash. Bill Gates just wants to use his billions for good, and 5G just means faster downloads.

Retweet if you appreciate a nature friendly farmer who plants winter seed mix. Allows the locals to enjoy the flocks of birds with permissive paths and gives space on their info board for the local wildlife group.
