Beautiful, farmer-protected lapwing nest! (Thank you!)
This campaign… the Lapwing was the joy of my childhood - 30- 40 sized flocks with their frankly crazy acrobatics studied from the west coast mainline nearly every school holiday...surely we can find & protect room in our countryside for these joyful creatures - some ideas here👇

Over the moon for iconic international Romany artist Delaine Le Bas who has been nominated for this year's Turner Prize. Congratulations! I write about Le Bas' work and this powerful photo portrait by Tim Walker in the preface of my debut poetry collection, Outlandish.

Little water-minty roadside rising of the chalk brook; sometimes see an elegant grey wagtail (water wag/ Polly Washdish) here in winter - but now, a pair! This year, they seem to be nesting where I’ve never sinem before: farmyard, sheep wash, ridgeway. Wet weather d’you think?
Marlborough's most famous manhole made to tonight'episode of ITV NEWS WEST COUNTRY. The underwater camera shows what hundreds of hours of untreated 💩 pouring from this burst manhole has done to the riverbed of the Kennet, coating what should be clean gravels. #chalkstream
Monday night Costa writing sesh, while daughter works her shift coaching gymnastics, & pre food shop. Here with the A Level students & let me tell you, procrastination is high … But not among them. Stern internal voice isn’t working. Deadline, Nicola deadline. Chocolate cake.
UK farmers are battling endless rain— with many crops not yet planted. This isn't just about wet fields; it's a threat to our entire food system because of our changing climate. Farmers need @DefraGovUK help to adapt and to farm in a climate of change🌧️🌞 theguardian.com/environment/20…
As ever, Nicola eloquently expresses the anger around what is happening to rural communities.

Hi again Stefan. This private company now has 2 separate websites, 3 trading names, a spokesperson at a Dubai-funded thinktank, and lots of paid advertising. All trained on 1 UK charity. That’s what’s worrying. But our members remain a fantastic bunch, and I remain unscared.

Today I rescued a man with a flat battery in his posh old sports car. I whipped out my little power pack and jobs a goodun. I'll never forget his face as long as I live. He didn't even know how to attach the leads 🙄 #FarmGalsKnowStuff
The Flow by @AmyJaneBeer is a beautiful book, exploring friendship and grief, intertwined with the importance of rivers in our lives. With the current deplorable state of our waterways, it’s even more vital that we fight to protect them 💙 #theflow @Feargal_Sharkey
@nicolawriting My farmer husband makes every effort to mark nests (saw two lots tonight in one of our fields) and we battle on to keep grazing cattle to ensure grass/muck to provide habitat and attract insects. One of the big issues is corvids here. We watch helplessly as take eggs & chicks 🙁
@nicolawriting Can remember collecting the chicks if they startled while mum saw off a sparrow hawk and I’d put them back in the nest and pull the grass up around them and stand guard. Really miss seeing them
@nicolawriting Every year was made so much better with their beautiful colours and swooping calls and warnings, there were so many nests in the long grass we all walked through, I had a Springer spaniel who would sniff for shrews and then stumble across a nest and we were shooed away by parents
@nicolawriting It’s the barren desert wastelands of modern intensive farming. Drenched in pesticides, drenched in artificial fertilizers. No hedges, grubbed out or flailed until all life gone from them. No Bees, no insects, no birds, no glorious soil microbes. Dead zones. Toxic food.
@nicolawriting The steps you outlined briefly here sound eminently sensible… how can I help these beauties 🤔🤞

This campaign… the Lapwing was the joy of my childhood - 30- 40 sized flocks with their frankly crazy acrobatics studied from the west coast mainline nearly every school holiday...surely we can find & protect room in our countryside for these joyful creatures - some ideas here👇
This, our #Lapwings. Half my life waving this red flag. Combination of farm machinery destroying nests (big 💚 those that can mark/avoid) no adjacent grass habitat left to run to after hatching, no insect food & imbalance of corvids/predators attracted by big pheasant shoots. 1/2
Don't miss out on our next book club. On Tuesday 30th of April we will be joined by @jm0ses and Jay Griffiths to discuss the first chapter of Wild Service : Reconnection. You can sign up for free using the link in our bio.

The ghost of Lapwings past. One of ELEVEN #waders on the UK RED LIST. More here: wadertales.wordpress.com/2022/10/04/uk-…
Spring 2024 and I’m not seeing any breeding Lapwing anywhere. This iconic bird seems to have been airbrushed from farmland across Southern England. What was once a classic #farmlandbird has now all but disappeared from the wider countryside. This is so sad 😔 What’s going on?
