Anybody interested in ‘British Birds’ journals for free? I have a full run from about 1971 unbound. Happy to rendezvous at Old Moor for pickup. @Barnsleybsg
A record-breaking Little Tern season at Spurn! A minimum of 116 pairs fledged 149 young, beating the previous best of 107 by 42 birds — almost 40%.
Huge thanks to our wardens, January’s crowdfund supporters and The National Lottery Heritage Fund for funding the project.

Every year, NEYEDC supports small numbers of bioblitz events, acting as a data hub to collate and manage records made on the day. A few weeks ago we attended the Swinsty Reservoir bioblitz led by Yorkshire Water, along with our moth traps, to support the event 🔎

The latest NEYEDC/Artbomb collaboration launched in Doncaster last Friday eve. The installation Eco-Sound System was developed by the Kalabash arts collective and lets people interact in real time with sounds, images & data collected in Doncaster artbombuk.com/post/kalabash-… 🔊
Heatwaves like the one we’re experiencing right now expose a simple truth: climate breakdown is a class issue.
Private hospitals and executive offices serving the super-rich already have air conditioning as standard. But many of the public buildings we all rely on – hospitals, schools, nurseries and care homes – are increasingly unprepared for extreme heat.
Unless we act, it will be working-class communities and the most vulnerable who pay the highest price.
That’s why I’ve signed a parliamentary motion calling for mandatory cooling measures, including air conditioning, in all newly built hospitals, schools, nurseries and care homes, alongside a funded retrofit programme for existing buildings.
In a climate breakdown, the wealthy will act in their own interests. We need a government that acts in ours.

With the warmer weather starting up again, it's been a great opportunity for some local moth trapping. Our EDO Hannah has been trapping at Hassacarr Pond Nature Reserve in Dunnington and caught these beauties this morning - Beautiful Hook-tip, Silver Y, and Smoky Wainscot 💡
We're helping a local recorder complete a lovely piece of work at the moment, digitising & analysing records of birds & the crops they associated with on the Wolds, collected over 14yrs 🌽 Analysis will attempt to determine if species have a crop preference & what influences this
It was great catching up with our surveyor team for North and East Yorkshire's Local Wildlife Sites on Monday, receiving some valuable feedback just in time for survey of our woodland sites! 📸: One of our surveyors, Louise, at newly designated SINC Fleet Ings and Topham Ings 🌱
Our Monad of the Month for March 2026 is TA2272, located near Flamborough in East Yorkshire. This series highlights under-recorded squares in our LERC area where we have few records. Could you record there? neyedc.org.uk/updates-insigh…
