@lizardschwartz.bsky.socialPantropical Spotted Dolphin - most are not this spotty! Thankfully came in close in nice light. Taken south of Dakar #naturephotography #marinelife
Show PostPallas's Reed Bunting! The first for the UK was found at Fair Isle on the day I was born, so I've always wanted to see one here. I now owe Alex a pint after he found this gorgeous peerie thing in the Wirvie Burn this morning! #BirdingScotland
Show PostI don’t know you other than via the Socials but I know enough to realise if you could have avoided it you would. Be kind to yourself. We wouldn’t want to see you hurt trying to spare the badger.
Show PostI hit a Badger right outside the campsite for BirdFair one year. It just ran straight into the car as I was slowing to make a turn. Was dead by the time we got out of the car to check. Still think about it whenever I see a dead one on the roads around here (at least once a week 😥)
Show PostOh my dear. The other day I was running a string-trimmer and flicked a garter snake and wounded it. That was horrible enough. Do what you can to make amends—maybe not specifically to badgers but to the ecosystem. Ask for forgiveness, then forgive yourself. Animals understand love & twists of fate.
