There is a pigeon trapped for several days in @Morrisons store in Harrow & the management there will not allow anyone to rescue. They even removed food & water at one point. Please someone @Morrisons do the right thing, tell staff to allow rescues to help!! Please retweet!.

A few photos of my favourite butterfly, a Green Hairstreak. Seen several on my walks lately, so hopefully they are doing well this year πŸ’š @savebutterflies @BCKentBranch

Not been on here much lately, trying to stay off my phone and get outside. Definitely worth it! πŸ’š #lovenature #kingfisher #robin #goldfinch

Good to see the return of a pair of Teal in my local park. To be fair I suspect they are often there but they hide very well! Yesterday they were enjoying the winter sunshine 🀎 #lovenature #winterwalk

A very confiding Great Crested Grebe in my local park today. One of six, so hopefully I will see their courtship dance soon! 🧑#lovenature #winterwalk #SpringIsComing

This Snipe was right in front of me today and I still needed someone to point it out to me before I found it. Masters of camouflage and look at that spectacular bill! #lovenature #boughbeech #kent

When I first got into birding , seeing a Goldfinch in my garden just blew my mind. How could something so exotic looking be a garden bird? I still get that same thrill seeing them all these years later, I think they are stunning β™₯οΈπŸ’› #lovenature #goldfinch

Off out again shortly. Not sure what I will see. But even seeing a Robin is enough to lift the spirits. This one was hanging sideways on a post yesterday - if only my gym visits were as effortless! #lovenature #sundaywalk

A beautiful start to my morning today, when greeted by Mr Kingfisher only a couple of minutes into my walk. He stayed nearby for quite a while and to be honest it made my day! πŸ’™πŸ§‘ #myfavouritebird #kingfisher #lovenature #februarywalk

I have taken social media off my phone & it has been wonderful not to see all the rubbish posted, but I do miss looking at the nature photos. Didn't get out this week as recovering from a cold. I am so looking forward to Spring and seeing bees again! 🧑#lovenature

Yesterday was such a lovely day, perfect weather conditions for a walk, and an unexpected Kingfisher photoshoot 🧑 #lovenature #kingfisher #frostymorning. (The less said about today's weather the better!)

I'm chuffed to have some of my photos featured in the new @LNHSoc book 'The Butterflies of London'. It is a beautifully designed book, showing the range of butterflies found in the London region. I can't add a link for some reason but details can be found on the @LNHSoc websiteπŸ¦‹

I'm glad I did my #biggardenbirdwatch yesterday although rather conflicted that this beauty was hunting my visiting sparrows. Can't say for sure if he got one but what a stunning bird! Photo taken quickly through a thankfully recently cleaned window! #sparrowhawk #winterwatch

A local celebrity, this female Kestrel is a bit of poser. And who can blame her, looking as good as she does! 🀎 #lovenature #winterwalk #kestrel #birdofprey #getoutside
