Are you seeing very few bumblebees this month? 🧵
We're in a gap between 'peak queen' bumblebee (spring when lots of overwintered queens are looking for nest sites) & 'peak worker' bumblebee (mid summer). This year the gap seems to be deeper & more pronounced than normal. 1/7

Do you have any unwanted clothes, shoes, hats, dress jewellery gathering dust in your wardrobe or cupboard?
We are running a vintage clothes stall at Pride in the park on June 22nd in Cator Park, all proceeds going towards the park- would be grateful for any donations DM us

Penge in Bloom application forms are now available on our website

Looking forward to this local history event on Crystal Palace Park- coming up this Thursday evening at Brown & Green in the park itself!

Join us -30th March for a lovely community event that brings us all outdoors to help find the Easter Bunnies hidden park Rocks.
Finding a rock means you can get a chocolate Easter egg when you swap it with the Friends of the park.
Pooch treats available for pooch 🐾 rocks too!

Bats are mostly hibernating now but if you're wondering where to do some bat watching when they wake up do check this page for some helpful tips: buff.ly/3ulMq2f . You could have bats right on your doorstep, you just need to know where/when to look buff.ly/3OxuKaH

It’s winter. The buzzing has stopped - mostly.
So what’s happened to all the #bees?
You’ve been asking…so a quick thread to broadly account for our little friends at this time of year.
Please #retweet and #share.
You know the drill.
The more informed the better for bees. 1/12
