Time for a #CupOfTeaSocial #QuizQuestion! It's been a while since we've had a #geography question (I think), so let's give this one a try.

The river Rhône flows into the Mediterranean in southern France, whereas the river Rhine flows into the North Sea in the Netherlands. Roughly how far apart are the sources of these two rivers?

Give this a #boost and let's see if the #fediverse can get this one right if we all work together (or alternatively we'll prove that the 'wisdom of crowds' is just nonsense).

Bird 'superhighway' may become first World Heritage Site of its kind

The Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) said the Flyway had been added to the list “in recognition of its vital importance to bird populations and wildlife”. #nature
