I’m extremely grateful to have the endorsement of so many members & residents in Newark, and from our wider movement. They know Newark deserves an MP who will work hard for them and be their voice in Westminster. Thank you to these amazing community champions for backing me.

Here for you this #thicktrunktuesday is a huge old oak needing a little help to keep it together. The deadwood habitat in its hollowing trunk is so valuable, supporting a column of little lives. @keeper_of_books @cornishca @artypartyco #chatsworth

Here for you this #thicktrunktuesday is a living sculpture of oak, stone and moss, found on a Derbyshire hillside last week. Living and non living forms in a slow dialogue. @keeper_of_books @cornishca @Lou_Hackett

Batrisodes venustus a largish (2mm) scarce Pselaphid taken from a subterranean pitfall trap in Sherwood Forest. Traps set to hopefully rediscover Oxylaemus cylindricus (no success yet) #Staphylinidae @ColSocBI @cornishca @RSPBSherwood

The sighting of a Marbled White butterfly in the Park has caused a flutter. This is the first official recording in the Park for 10 years as part of UK Butterfly Monitoring Scheme. With nearby sites of this scarce Notts butterfly, hopefully it will establish here. #30DaysWild

Here today for #thicktrunktuesday is a oak so big I needed video to do it justice. The structure combines living and non living wood in a beautifully balanced sculptural form. Awe inspiring for this tree artist 💚🌳 @keeper_of_books @cornishca @artypartyco @RainB47 #chatsworth

Here’s a Sherwood giant for you this #thicktrunktuesday and a tiny but knowledgeable guide @cornishca who gave me a tour of his favourites in the famous woodland. The scale of this one was something to behold 😲 @keeper_of_books @artypartyco @TreesforDorset

A few top quality Oak got the vane trap treatment yesterday. These are three of 29 on private farmland in Nottinghamshire. Hoping that this isolated cluster of trees will spring a few surprises. @ColSocBI @cornishca

A day for fascinating meetings, with fellow tree people @cornishca and @Lou_Hackett from the @AncientTreesATF and @WoodlandTrust then meeting some ancients in the parkland around Chatsworth. Carl was interviewing me for the ATF newsletter, hope I was as interesting as they were!

Something is in the air as groups increasingly come together to stand against attacks on nature. Retweet to urge @RobertJenrick to vote against the “bulldozer bill' newarkadvertiser.co.uk/news/… @WildlifeTrusts @WoodlandTrust

Wonderful to be back out under trees for my first official field trip with @AncientTreesATF at @CastleHowardEst and @YorksArboretum yesterday. Some stunning trees, robust discussion and generous sharing of knowledge 🌳

My only Triphyllus bicolor of the year, bottle trapped Nottinghamshire woodland. Don't know where its head and thorax went, they weren't in the trap. @cornishca @ColSocBI

One of the best and certainly the most holistic wood pasture creation projects I’ve seen, brilliant.

Replying to @cornishca
Yesterday visited Gowbarrow Hall Farm to meet the inspiring farmers @gowbarrow who shared their passion & vision for regenerative farming with wood pasture restoration and pigs, veteran alders & lots of birds - wonderful gowbarrow.co.uk/ 2/2

Upland wood pastures around Ullswater are phenomenal, with wild apples a wonderful and distinctive feature.
Carl Cornish@cornishca29 Sep 2022
Also in the Lake District visited the brilliant farmers at NT's Glencoyne Park and saw some magnificent ancient and veteran oak and wild apple trees in the wood pasture

Lots of interesting discussion about whether the natural regen at Silver Cove is wood pasture (open grown/pollard trees, scrub & open habitat mosaic, & deliberate grazing). Regen is appearing as pulses of single species in patches, it will take time but def wood pasture for me.
Carl Cornish@cornishca29 Sep 2022
A couple of days in the Lake District with Wood Pasture & Parkland Network thanks to @WilderScapes organising. Visited @wildennerdale to see and hear about partnership working to deliver catchment scale conservation - impressive 1/2
