A great day at Underhill on Saturday. We ran our first rewilding workshop of the year. The rewilding movement grows exponentially…

A huge shout out to Sara King from Rewilding Britain. Sara co-delivers these events with me - she adds so much to them. Thank you!

We are excited to announce a new #LandscapeRecovery traineeship within the Water Team at Wilts Wildlife Trust. Working on the first landscape-scale chalkstream restoration project in the UK. 12 month, full-time funded traineeship wiltshirewildlife.org/jobs/landscape…

We need national parks to be wilder and be supporting landscape scale nature recovery!

#WilderNationalParks

As National Parks turn 75, a new report highlights only 6% of their land is recorded as being in good health for nature - with the Yorkshire Dales having less tree cover than York and waterways across these special places heavily polluted by sewage released from storm overflows.

The beaver wetlands at Knepp have come into their own during this rainy spring 🌧️

#Rewilding Manager Sara King recently took these photos that show how much water they're holding, mitigating flooding while creating a diversity of habitats that support a mass of nature.

Thank you Penny Green for taking time out of your incredibly busy schedule to show me around the Beaver wetland at the Knepp Wilding
Estate. Unbelievable amount of water in the wetland!

Beavers got me into #rewilding many years ago and they still continue to inspire me!

Really looking forward to chatting with the amazing Nicola Chester at tonight's free Climate Action North #BookWilding online event. This is a lovely gathering of our #rewilding #bookclub and #booklovers and I just love these sessions. See you there #BookWilders 🌏♥️📚🐦🌱

‘A single beaver pond holds an estimated 1.1 million gallons of water and recharges underlying aquifers with an even greater amount of water.’

Understanding, restoring and cherishing beavers is the key to rediscovering our own place in the cosmos. linkedin.com/posts/sam-know…

Thanks to Cornwall Wildlife Trust 〓〓 for inviting us to your bold new strategy launch, and for a look around the new Helman Tor #rewilding project

Very exciting to hear about your vision for landscape and Seascale scale change through the proposed Tor to Shore initiative!

This is going to be a great #rewilding event with an amazing line up. Do get your tickets and come along if you can!

Jonathan is an inspiration for anyone who is #rewilding smaller areas of land. Well worth a listen!

To coincide with World Rewilding Day, Jonathan and I discuss how people can turn #HopeIntoAction no matter how small a patch of land you might…

Now's our chance to see Scotland with vast native forests, seas filled with life & thriving communities 🌄

Help us urge the Scottish Government to declare Scotland the world’s first #Rewilding Nation & commit to nature recovery across 30% of land & sea ⬇️ i.mtr.cool/qyhwrbzklt

Fascinating visit with Rewilding Britain colleagues to Ambios Ltd in #Devon who are helping to train the next generation of conservationists on a small scale #rewilding and nature friendly farming site. Several rewilding projects now employ people who have been through their doors.

Exciting news from our stork's nest at the weekend! An egg was laid on Saturday evening, just in time for Mothering Sunday! Storks typically lay every other day, up to a total of 5 eggs. Stay tuned to our live camera feed to watch the story unfold: whitestorkproject.org/live-cam-feed #Knepp

Colorado has already reintroduced lynx & wolves & is now proposing to reintroduce another carnivore, the wolverine. It's definitely time we got lynx back in Scotland and also started preparing for a later reintroduction of wolves - we need apex predators!
