Recently published statistics show that 128 million trees and shrubs were imported into the UK last year. 📈 These imports increase the risk of introducing new pests and pathogens that threaten our existing woods and trees. 🦠 Once a #TreeDisease or pest becomes established it can rarely be eradicated. Growing the trees we need here in the UK is one of the best ways to stop the introduction of new tree diseases. 🌱 Read our full statement: https://bit.ly/3A2d3Mj Read the statistics release here: https://bit.ly/3zSVDSp

Happy #NationalBadgerDay! Today’s the day to celebrate one of our most iconic mammals. 🦡 Did you know that badgers are the UK’s biggest land predator? They can weigh up to 12kg! So how do they achieve their impressive size? It might be hard to believe but their diet is 80% earthworms – they can eat hundreds of them in a single night! 🍽 Your best chance of spotting a badger is by locating a sett and quietly waiting for the inhabitants to emerge, usually around dusk. ⏰ Find out more about these beautiful bold creatures by heading to our website 👉 https://lnkd.in/endzC-KM

🍄 This distinctive toadstool is a sure sign that autumn is here! 🔍 #FlyAgaric is an easily recognisable fungus with a bright red cap with white spots and white gills. 🌳 Look for it growing in woodland and heathland on light soils among birch, pine or spruce trees. ⚪ The 'spots' on fly agaric are remnants of the white veil of tissue that enclosed the young mushroom. They can be washed off by rain. ⚠️ Fly agaric is poisonous, though reports of deaths are rare. 👉 Learn more about common UK fungi: https://bit.ly/4ejPInX
