I just went on Kent's LNRS website and added three suggestions for landscape-scale projects. They are asking for everyone's suggestions, and the map looks a bit bare at present (esp. NK Marshes and the Weald). Why not give them your ideas? www.makingspacefornaturekent.org.uk/getinvolved/...

I've binged 5 episodes of this while doing the chores, and it's a breath of fresh air. Hearing of things that "hove to" others, or "whence they came" sounds so much better in a Scottish accent. Even the pronunciation of "cushion". Some loveliness, if you fancy it.

Am still keen to hear from more UK patch birders, particularly those from less well represented groups e.g. female, age <40 etc. Am also looking for people fairly new to patch birding. If you're interested, get in touch either via DM or through the contact form on the website. #UKBirding #Birds

Are you a patch birder in the UK? Would you like to participate in a research project about patch birding? The project focuses on environmental change, well-being, low-carbon birding, and new technologies. Find out more here. #Birds #UKbirding andrewjwhitehouse.wordpress.com/patch-birdin...
