This is site supervisor Captain Stanley Fluffypants checking on the lawn for #NoMowMay. He's very keen on Yellow Rattle, Rhinanthus minor, a hemi-parasitic plant. It taps into grasses' roots to keep them relatively low. plantlife.org.uk/uk/discover-wi…

I’m famous with students for working the word potato 🥔 into every single lecture. If we can get tweet below 👇 to 200 RTs in recognition of sacrifices being made by our amazing early career researchers, then I will attend next strike day dressed as a potato @ucu @Bristol_UCU

Hey @BristolUni look at this photo & zoom & look at ages of those on strike outside the LSB @BristolBioSci They’re young ones, being hardest hit by cuts on pay & pension AND also being hardest hit with strike pay deductions & yet they STRIKE @Bristol_UCU @ucu They WILL win

Any hedgehog weighing ideas that don't involve human contact? We're concerned a couple of our nightly garden visitors are on the small side.

Question for ecologists. Is there a handy balance / scale with logging or WiFi I could set up for weighing hedgehogs as they walk to a feed station? I'd rather not be out in the middle of the night disturbing them if possible.

Anger management issues in our garden last night

More drama in the garden as a munching #hedgehog hears trouble is on the way. @BBCSpringwatch @HStitfall
