SS15 wildlife watching

This blog was set up in mid-March 2020 during the emerging COVID-19 health crisis in the UK. It initially aimed to provide records of wildlife sightings and photographs from sites within walking distance of my home in the SS15 postcode area of Basildon in Essex during lockdown travel restrictions. Even though the pandemic has largely subsided, this blog continues to include my local wildlife sightings, my trips away from home plus some personal thoughts and reflections on other issues.

Act now! .... bring on the 25% revolution!

Our planet is literally on fire.

Today the UK is facing its first ever Red Extreme heat warning. A national emergency has been declared.

When are Governments, businesses and corporations and all of us as individuals going to heed the warnings and the evidence in front of eyes and take the substantial step-change actions required to ensure the survival of humanity and all the wonderful biodiversity that we share our planet with?
