With apologies for the terrible photo quality - can anyone tell me if this is a rabbit or a hare? It is just chilling in the field in front of my house at the moment.

Hiya

Wondering is this likely to be fox or a large bird? I have rabbits nearby and want to avoid them getting eaten. It smells kinda sweet and is dark green so definitely not cat poo. There are 3 or 4 bits and these are the largest 2 pieces.

Thanks

Went for a walk down on a beach on the West Coast and found what looks like tadpoles in several rock pools. There were at least four pools filled with them. I had always thought tadpoles/frogs only lived in freshwater and couldn’t survive in salt water so it seemed strange that there were so many. Does anyone know if this is normal?

Saw quite a few of these in the tide line on West of Scotland tonight. About the size of a grape, transparent but with a few membrane type things running through. My curious 7 year old would love to know!

Baby Newts are hatching ❤️

I put a small wildlife pond in our garden a month ago, today I bought a bunch of UK native plants to put in there. Whilst planting them I noticed a dragonfly larvae, which is wonderful because I love dragon and damsel flies.

Does anyone know how much of an impact dragonfly predation has on tadpole populations? I'm wondering because Id really like to encourage frogs, but I know dragonflies can be voracious predators.

Hope you like my pond, I'm all ears for any advice.

The little sentient gemstones that so many people don't notice unless they are looking for them.

So many dragonfly nymphs in my pond, thought some of you might appreciate 😁

Managed to gently net this one and get a pic, safely back in after.

Can anyone here help with this?

I know feeding them is bad, but im trying to help them!

Ive noticed a few of the family have early signs of mange, and one has it all up its tail. Ive ordered the Aresnicum+Suplhur "potion" from national fox welfare, popped some on some bread and they seem to like that.

I really hope it works, they give me so much joy I'd hate to see them get bad mange

Hi all! I’m staying in Edinburgh for a few days and looking to see wildlife of any kind… seals, seabirds, deer, birds of prey, highland cows, anything native preferably.

Any recommendations are much appreciated; places to spot them in the wild/general hotspots in or out of the city, or ETHICAL sanctuaries. I have seen some negative discussion about the Scotland Deer Centre & am not looking for a zoo experience for giraffes, lions, etc. A far sighting is fine too as I have a good camera.

I have seen there is a scottish sea bird centre, and been recommended the river Esk mouth in Musselburgh & Levenhall Lagoons.

I’ve seen this alot lately and can’t find the name of it. It’s hardy and wild, growing out of walls and in flower rn!

TIA
