I know it seems so utterly incredible as to be unbelievable but London and the south east really is running out of water.
Don't believe me? @SouthernWater is in talks to tanker in water from Norwegian fjords and no, I'm not kidding nor is it 1st April.

AI is the panacea to all our needs. But I’m old enough to remember when that was going to be drones.
Don’t need expensive binoculars to enjoy the birds at Seaton wetlands!
Has to be said we had some reasonable views of this stunning Osprey at the river Axe @DevonBirds @wildeastdevon @Natures_Voice @TheTiercel @DevonLife @DevonLiveNews @eastdevon @WildlifeMag @BBCSpringwatch @BBCDevon

Happy ending bat story!
🦇 Good news! A juvenile Soprano pipistrelle, Pipistrellus pygmaeus was found with a wing injury and taken in by local bat carer Fiona Mathews, has been released after a successful rehabilitation!
If you find a grounded or injured bat, check the @batconservationtrust website.

2nd morning of @BirdLife_Malta raptor camp. An osprey seeks shelter from rain, Maltese hunters seek it for taxidermy. Such is the fate of European birds after years of neglect of taxidermy collections, weakened enforcement & government policy loopholes allowing so @EU_ENV @coe

Osprey with catch from The River Axe today, unfortunately a late visit due to work commitments so had to be on east side of River bank looking towards sun (Hide was full) but it gave some interesting lighting @DevonBirds @wildeastdevon @Natures_Voice @TheTiercel @DevonLife #Birds
