  3. Hugely enjoying the #WildIsles on Amazon Prime. Have been learning about so many species. I can’t wait to visit properly.

  4. Scallop dredging rips up seabeds & destroys habitats - yet it's allowed in >95% of Scotland's seas. We need an #InshoreLimit on scallop dredging & other damaging fishing in coastal seas. Sign the @ourseas_scot

  7. ...“The politically acceptable is ecologically disastrous, while the ecologically necessary is politically impossible.”

    The thinking outlined in Wild Isles #6 is antithetical to political orthodoxy both right and left. And therein lies the problem.

  8. Has anyone watched the final #WildIsles on #BBC #iPlayer (the one that was banned from being broadcast)?

    Aside from an implied critique of #monoculture #agriculture I really can't see why it could have been seen to be controversial.

    What did I miss? Certainly wasn't as hard-hitting on #climatechange as I have seen other programmes to be....

  9. After watching the penultimate* episode of #DavidAttenbotough's #WildIsles on the devil's lightbox yesterday, I recalled that as a wee lad in Aotearoa, I dreamt often of #SeaHorses. Why, I don't know, but these beautiful creatures featured prominently in my nocturnal fantasies.

    *Blocked from broadcast by the BBC following political pressures, the final episode is only available online via #iPlayer.

  10. Watching "Saving Our #WildIsles" which BBC has released as an extra only available via iPlayer

    It is not just the re-wilding environmentalism practised by farmers that the rightwing would have found too "woke". They would have objected to the accusations of racial exclusion implied by the Flock Together segment.

  12. A little walk through RSPB Rainham Marshes - lots of birds of course, and also a lot of other wildlife. Larinioides cornutus, one of many many Pisaura mirabilis, marsh frogs (gotta love the name!) were also out in full force and voice. Didn’t get any very good bird shots (not got the lens for that), but did manage to catch this female chaffinch lurking in the bushes #NaturePhotography #WildIsles #Wildlife #MacroPhotography

  13. And who is responsible for this? 🤔

    What a shocking sentence.

  15. Just caught up with the latest 'Wild Isles' from David Attenborough. Another extraordinary programme, and a reminder of how just how precarious is the state of many of our natural systems. #WildIsles

  16. According to Mr Attenborough these little guys are becoming increasingly rare. I still see a lot living in and around dry stone walls, which is perfect habitat for them outside the breeding season. #WildIsles #wildlife

  17. Thérèse Coffey says building infrastructure such as super sewers could be too costly - theguardian.com/politics/live/ so tories can afford to waste tens of billions on PPE that couldn't be used, but can't afford to protect our rivers and seas...? #WildIsles

  19. Some lovely dolphin and salmon footage on #wildisles on Sunday night, congratulations to all at Silverback Films and the film team including @choward Chris Conroy, Simon King, Linsay MacRae and many more. Stunning work.

  22. Aargh 😠! Yet again, a wildlife programme has ended up mirror imaging a snail shell 🐌, this time the flagship Attenborough/ BBC production "Wild Isles". A bee enters a dextral Cepaea hortensis shell and emerges from a sinistral. If authenticity is important then why does this keep happening in nearly every wildlife programme that I watch? #wildisles #bbc #attenborough

  23. #wildisles was brilliant again, fantastic camera work from all, especially the starlings on Bodmin Moor with the thermal imaging camera at night. I love the snippet at the end of how they film certain things, we take it so much for granted but the work involved is incredible. Really enjoying this series.
