    We’ve loved sharing news with the friends we’ve made here over the last 15 years. But many have disappeared, we’re not getting the reach, and so with heavy hearts we’re putting our X accounts into hibernation. Find us flourishing instead on new and improving habitats... 1/2

    Another incredible starling murmuration at @YWTPottericCarr last night - right over the visitor centre this time. We're really quite jealous of our colleagues based at the nature reserve - how fantastic that they can see this magic from the office window!

    We're shocked that someone has dumped ~1000 tyres at Brockadale nature reserve ☹️ As a charity, removing them costs us time & money we don't have, impacting our work for wildlife🐾 We know there are people across Yorkshire doing fab things everyday - can you help/share our story?

    We're THRILLED that planned development next to Askham Bog has just been unanimously refused by @CityofYork, facing over 7000 objections ✨ We are so happy that the story of Askham Bog will continue. A fantastic victory for wildlife, for conservation, and for this special place!
