Yesterday I left with a full heart and recharged batteries after the senior course “Understanding the World in the 21st Century” at the Lisbon University We discussed the #biodiversitycrisis and #citizenscience, not only as a powerful source of data, but also as a way of (re)connecting with nature.

Last Monday I found a marvelous #astragalus species, Astragalus tragacantha L., near Cabo de Sagres. This small shrub with a Med. distribution that, in mainland Portugal, occurs only in a restricted area of the SW Algarve coast, on calcareous sea cliffs. #botany #portugal #flora 🌱🌿🪷
