KimberleyI found this beautiful little lady exploring the nooks and crannies around my water butts. I think she’s a German yellowjacket wasp (Vespula Germanica), and maybe a queen as she’s quite large but I’m not sure. She was very docile, maybe quite newly emerged. But I use my water butts a lot in summer so I’ve relocated her to a less troublesome location near some trees that are surrounded by brambles so nobody can get near enough to disturb any potential nests. <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/ukNature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ukNature</a> <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/wasps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wasps</a>

LotteOut in the Peak District this weekend 🌿 Accessible by bus & train 🌿 Varied landscapes 🌿 Well-maintained trails 🌿 Routes for all abilities 🌿 Vegan-friendly pubs & cafés I especially like taking the train, doing a loop around Win Hill and Derwent Edge and ending at Grasshopper Café in Hope before taking the train back home. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/SustainableTravel?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SustainableTravel</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Travel?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Travel</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Hiking?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Hiking</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Outdoors?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Outdoors</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/PeakDistrict?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PeakDistrict</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/UKNature?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UKNature</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Nature?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Nature</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Sustainability?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Sustainability</a>

LionelBThis was a very long way down the list of what I expected to see today. It is a common lizard (Zootoca vivipara). It appears that the coated aluminium heats up quickly in the sun. Also it gives up its heat easily. Grim that it has been thrown away but in this case more help than hazard.<a href="https://expressional.social/tags/reptiles" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#reptiles</a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/UKNature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UKNature</a>

Phil Sturgeon🌍🇬🇧 What can we do to restore nature on Dartmoor? Nothing as daft as “kick off all the sheep”, but there are changes to grazing that’ll work, and there’s what we’ve been wasting time and money on for a decade.
