Folk that walk their dogs in the countryside and leave dog poo bags strewn behind dry stone walls or discard them in bushes, please tell me on what level do you think this is acceptable. Its not normal behaviour, you're not responsible, its disgraceful. Conservation @althorp .com

Why do so many offenders think that fly-tipping is acceptable? Councils making it harder to use the local tip is NO excuse. The countryside is being degraded at an alarming rate leaving land owners to pay and clear up the mess. It's a national disgrace. Conservation @althorp .com

This wonderful Oak tree is over 500 years old, sadly she's dead but still very beautiful. Standing dead trees can be home to more wildlife than living ones amazingly. Healthy woodlands & forests should include plentiful amounts of dead and decaying wood. Conservation @althorp .com

Very sad day for us at Althorp. One minute of total devastation caused severe damage to many ancient oak trees. Thankfully no one was hurt but recording & photographing each lost tree just now was difficult. Conservation @althorp .com #Tornado #Althorppark

A very exciting wetlands project begins this year at Althorp Estate. I'll post updates throughout the year as the work unfolds. A lot of careful planning with various agencies will finally come to fruition creating new habitat for our wildlife. Conservation @althorp .com #nature

Old "split ear" is back around @AlthorpHouse today. I hadn't seen her for over two months until now. Very tame this one, and often seen on the front lawns of the big house. Conservation @althorp .com #hares

The first set of cast antlers this year! This natural annual shedding is totally painless. The new antlers will grow over the next few months & be covered in velvet like growth. It will then be rubbed off and the new set will be known as 'clean'. 11kgs. Conservation @Althorp .com
