How's this for a first encounter after leaving my house this morning! She's a Harris Hawk, named Athena, employed by my local brewery to scare away the nuisance gulls. Her handler was kind enough to allow me to take some close-ups 😍 #HarrisHawk #Hawks | #Faversham #Kent #England | #birdsoftheworld #birds
I'll be teaching @NetMaking with Jack Raven #Bushcraft in #Kent on the 3rd of May, https://www.jackravenbushcraft.co.uk/net-making-course/. This full day course will cover the technique of net making, which is surprisingly relaxing and meditative once mastered, as well as cordage making from natural fibres like nettles and a discussion of the archaeological evidence for the historical use of nets for fishing and carrying.
A minor political earthquake shook #Kent this morning after the #GreenParty defied expectations to snatch victory at a crunch by-election.
The Greens’ decisive win in the #Cliftonville division of Kent County Council (#KCC) came after an intense two month campaign into which four of the main parties threw huge resources
For #Reform UK, it was the first by-election to be fought since their massive victory at KCC last year and was regarded as a “must win”
But they did not win.
They failed.
Because I'm much better at doing hype for my friends' businesses than my own:
Jack Raven #Bushcraft is having an end-of-season sale, 25% off all remaining bushcraft, #survival, #HeritageCrafts and #AncestralSkills. I'll be teaching the #NetMaking and #CoilBasketry courses.
