Wildlife returns to the Chilterns as HS2 rewilding project creates new chalk grasslands
A 127-hectare site near the HS2 tunnel in the Chilterns has been transformed from a wheatfield into a diverse habitat of meadows, ponds, and woods. The project has already attracted rare species like the hedgehog clover, providing a significant boost to biodiversity in the region.

Nature will rebound if we give it a chance.
"A decade ago, this area was a vast wheatfield with precious little biodiversity. Today, as the construction effort winds down, more and more of the 127-hectare site is being turned into wildlife-rich grasslands, wet meadows, ponds and small woods."

In Wheatfield with Crows (July 1890), painted weeks before his death, Van Gogh set dark birds against a golden field and a sky in turmoil.
The scene’s unrest mirrors his own—a landscape caught between persistence and despair.

Lots of art materials made it to the #MinCup26 quarterfinals though these 2 beat some greats. Zinc & copper have been a part of brass & bronze since antiquity. Zinc makes etching plates, zinc white & zinc yellow paint. Cuprite is used as a red pigment in glass, artificial gems, enamels, & ceramics.

This 🧵 - Trump is clearly off the rails, even more than he’s normally off the rails. I mean we’re talking into the wilderness here, at best he’s lost in a Kansas Wheatfield, no Dorothy, no Toto, just wheat and a toddler screaming into the wind.
Trump: “The cartels are the ISIS of the Western Hemisphere. Not good people.
“Like ISIS, they should be killed, exiled, or detained as enemy combatants without the possibility of release, which is what we’re doing.”
