Humankind is the 'Earth's biggest threat'

The world’s top scientists are in no doubt that human activity is changing our climate. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change says the evidence is ‘unequivocal’ that increased warming since the industrial age is due to human activity.

What do you think we should be doing to tackle climate change?

What are your questions?

There are many ways you can make a difference. The first step is to understand climate change.

Autumn is a great time to spot fungi as many fruiting bodies (the interesting shapes that we see above ground) bloom at this time of year. So I've decided to post my mushroom and toadstool photos on this blog as the season wears on. Enjoy!

Hi there all! Hope you’re enjoying watching the now that it’s up and running. It’s almost always busy at the feeder at the moment so there’s plenty to keep you entertained (or in my case distracted from work!). It’s particularly popular with Great Tits, Blue Tits and Coal Tits as well as Greenfinch, Chaffinch and House Sparrow. The Nuthatch and Robin are also regulars with Goldfinch and Bullfinch making infrequent visits. The feeder also suffers regular raids from our resident squirrels and although they’re a bit of a nuisance for the birds it’s pretty entertaining watching their acrobatic attempts at getting to the food!
