We were baffled when one of our campaign banners mysteriously disappeared today, the very day when Mr Bannister was out shooting in the moor. Of course we were delighted to find it in one of his gun buses! HOW can it have got there? Delighted at this public spirited action against nasty thieves!

Happy Wuthering Heights Day! Today we celebrate the 207th birthday of Emily Brontë and the 67th birthday of Kate Bush. It’s a beautiful day out on #Walshaw Moor.

The global phenomenon that is The Most Wuthering Day Ever came to #Haworth for the first time today. The aim was to raise funds for @womensaid.bsky.social and for our campaign to #stopcalderdalewindfarm and it was amazing! #wutheringheights #katebush #brontë

Red-listed birds such as curlews definitely do NOT thrive on wind farms..

Latest Walshaw Turbine blog by Nick Mackinnon which explores, in impressive detail, how you can/can't get wind turbine blades round tricky corners and how flood risk increases with tracks and turbine numbers. markavery.info/2025/07/04/g...

Today is the 2nd anniversary of the publication of Reflections.
I reckon it’s a good book but then, I wrote it.
It proposes that we should all be conservation investors rather than passive members/supporters.

Photographer Kate Haslegrave has a great blog out courtesy of @markavery.bsky.social in which she walks to the proposed site of Turbine 25, Shooting Boxes, - or as close as she can get, given that #Walshaw #Moor full of #curlew #lapwing #goldenplover chicks right now. markavery.info/2025/06/20/g...
