I know they’re common, but they’re so cute! #BlueTit

Baby squirrel OMG OMG 🥹 Squirrel of the Day for September 24, 2025 #sqrlpix

So, my garden fox 🤦🏻‍♀️ Here it is back in June stealing my daughter’s sock from the garden. This afternoon, it returned the sock to the exact spot it was stolen from. In tatters, yes, but still…it’s back. Anyone know what this means? Does it require another offering? Is it saying thank you?

It’s going to be one of *those* days in my garden safari again. That squirrel is only one missed jump away from becoming an interactive squeaky chew toy.

✨Sunday read: 'This is how the masons who built this place would have seen it – and now this realm of rarified air, this dwelling place of angels, is soon to be joined by a humbled human being.' www.digest.andymarshall.co/andy-marshal... #architecture #heritage #photography

Garden drama. And this is how I found out that foxes can climb trees. Thankfully, squirrels can still climb them faster.

Also for #StandingStoneSunday - Ġgantija, Gozo. Exceptional Neolithic temple site.

Apologies for the repost but I’m feeling too lazy to delete and post it again with the appropriate #StandingStoneSunday tag. 🤦🏻‍♀️

The baby starlings who’ve been at my feeder all summer have entered their ‘spotty waistcoat’ stage. It’s taken me a while to warm to these birds, noisy and greedy as they are, but I’m getting there.

It wouldn’t have been a great holiday without visiting at least one very old stone edifice and Malta has some of the very oldest. Ħaġar Qim Neolithic temple.

Meta AI being unintentionally funny on FB again. Careful out there - mind the hordes of stampeding Weetabix!

Love watching this little bird getting redder by the day. ♥️

It’s baby bird season. Best time of the year.

Oh Meta AI. Never change.

#AdoorableThursday Bishop’s Door - Wells Cathedral.

“Can we go outside and play now?” “Soon, boy.” “You said that ten minutes ago.” “As soon as I finish my cof-“ “Oops.” “You did that on purpose.” “It slipped.” “I’ll get my coat.” “Excellent.”

Not 100% certain, but I think that’s St. Anne’s Limehouse (Hawksmoor) in the background.

#AdoorableThursday St Alban’s Cathedral, South Transept (I think…) looking through into the new welcome/visitor centre.

Continuing with my reading/notemaking on GenAI. I’ve been using ChatGPT to summarise my handwritten notes - try as I might, I cannot prompt it to accurately (verbatim) reproduce my notes on academic sources that include the word ‘bullshit’. There are many. And it’s not having it.

#Severance When I’m having a bad executive function day, I use AI to schedule and prioritise my tasks and plan my entire day. Today, ChatGPT reassured me ‘you’re doing thoughtful, meaningful work and building something big’. All I can now think of is this:

Gizmo made himself a piggie fort while I valeted his cage this afternoon. Iconic #GuineaPig

It's #BlueSkyArtShow today and the theme is #Arch Here's the Church of Our Lady Bruges from a trip in 2014. #SeeWithLauri #PhotographersUnited #G+Circle #ArcanumAlumni #EastCoastKin #Bruges #TravelPhotography

This piece from @tressiemcphd.bsky.social starts with a bang and just gets better and better. Gift link.

Winchester Cathedral You're bringing me down You stood and you watched as M̶y̶ ̶b̶a̶b̶y̶ ̶l̶e̶f̶t̶ ̶t̶o̶w̶n̶ I was told off for using a camera tripod.

I wrote a piece for The Daily Tism! Look at me go! Also, like, do give it a read, yeah

Cheers, Facebook. Really needed that this morning. 😂☠️

It’s the time of year when my twin nerderies of cathedrals and bird watching come together with the peregrine live webcams! Like football teams you’ve got to pick a favourite and mine’s Norwich, where the first egg 🥚 was laid this morning! hawkandowltrust.org/live-cameras...

It's the Spring Equinox - the first astronomical day of spring! ☀️ Longer days. Lighter evenings. Sunshine warm on your skin, birds singing, blossom in the branches.

Timely…have just started writing some GenAI training materials at work and spent part of yesterday afternoon on a similar theme.

Rise, radiate, rest - light blessing the cloister at Chester Cathedral.

This had better not be another Lost. I’m still bitter about the amount of time I’ll never get back.

And now for some levity... www.youtube.com/shorts/DrJgI...

Welcome to the many new followers who might have found me on a list somewhere. Not sure how that happened. Don’t expect too much - you’re mainly getting neurodivergence, cathedrals, rodents and nice old doors, with the occasional bit of higher education thrown in for good measure. 😊

If you are disgusted by the recent behaviour of a certain orange sociopath and want to support Ukraine 🇺🇦 directly, you can do so here. I was so committed not to do any politics or any swearing on here, but fucking hell… www.1team1fight.org

Been away for a week - I think someone’s glad I’m home. #GuineaPig

Good morning! This week's theme is London Churches. ------ 'Ludgate, Evening' (1887) by John O'Connor (Private collection)

Perhaps the top annoyance of AuDHD is the need to be detailed oriented and having everything precisely right but being cursed with too much inattention to ever do so

Doors of Ronda. Andalucía, Spain.

#adoorableThursday Malaga. They have great doors in Spain!

Anyone who uses the term 'DEI' in British politics is clearly importing their culture war labels from America. 'EDI' is the much more common version here in my experience. Going to start my campaign for British language for British culture wars.

Everyone, meet The Queen of Floof. She’s not mine. But I wish she was. 😻

If you're #churchcrawling #Southwell Minster, you'll enter through the porch on the N side. Pause for a good look at the oak doors, dated to around 1300. Gorgeous.

The puerile side of me absolutely loves this on so many levels. I wish I still had a student facing job - I would teach them this immediately!

✨ The mesmerising nave roof of Peterborough Cathedral—crafted from oak in the early 13th century—is unlike any other in Britain. It's one of the great geometric masterpieces in our cathedrals, a stunning kaleidoscope carved in wood.

✨One of my fave photographs of York Minster where I arrived at first light - behind me in the nave the 🔵blue hour still lingered, but in front of me, in the quire, the ☀️golden hour was glowing. It was all so overwhelmingly beautiful. 📸Taken on my tilt-shift lens.
