Each of these would be a worthy winner. But choices must be made. Vote #tugtupite #MinCup25

To dager igjen nå! Jeg pakker bort hematittargumentene mine for i år med planer om å finne dem igjen neste høst, og så stemmer jeg på den av de to pyntesteinene som er GRØNLANDSK og har INUITT-NAVN og som har sitt første år i mineralkøppen, det ville vært fint om den vant. #Tugtupite #MinCup25

Flere burde slå til her. 🍨🍨🍨

After thirty years of occasionally seeing and enjoying turkey buzzards sunbathing in the morning, I finally took a photo. #birds

this heron had a good stance and i just couldn’t say no to a few pics. #birds

Grurgalon looks like a massively overgrown giraffe crossed with the Rock of Gibraltar. They represent police brutality.

This one particular dahlia has drawn endless amounts of pollinators into my garden for months and is still going strong. 🌱🐝📷 #GardensHour #Bloomscrolling #BugSky

Grapevine on a trellis in a local farm garden.

Very good stuff from Sadiq Khan at the Labour Irish society event. He said there are two reasons he loves coming to Labour Conference. “One is the reception at the Labour Party Irish Society reception. “The second is to get away from all the Sharia Law in London”

Det er semifinaler i mineralkøppen og jeg liker alle fire og syns dermed egentlig jeg har vunnet allerede! Men jeg liker hematitt MEST, og da jeg fikk se at den ligger bak i dagens match måtte jeg gå og finne fram noen veldig tunge smykker og ta dem på meg. #Hematite #MinCup25

Always take a black & white before you attempt to add color so you can print it. A print can be any color. #Drawing #Art #WIP

When I post photos of the great paws in the bathroom sky and attempt to solve their Mysteries? This is my experience of the event

This is very difficult. It's green either way tonight. Vote #dioptase #MinCup25

You know who’s amazing? The #MinCup25 admins, that’s who! Ballot stuffing makes their lives difficult during this completely fun, silly, educational thing they make happen. Vote for the mineral you love, and vote only once to show love for the admins, please & thank you! Also, vote #Dioptase please

Oh. This is from last year. But I still have mystery oysters growing in the now moldy strawberry planter. If it stays at 98° humidity this week the lichens will be very happy. #fungifriends #lichen 📷🍄

Not many moths overnight but what a thrill to see the Harnessed Tiger Moth this morning. Better than coffee! Moths are amazing. #Leptember #Moths #MothsMatter #TeamMoth

Every few months or so, I remind myself I once saw a leucistic Anna’s hummingbird with my bare eyes just so I don’t forget about him 📷🌿🪶

Look to the light. Bring light to others. In these dark times, that’s the only way forward. #Sunday #StunDay #LightTheWorld #PeacemakersWanted #Trees #Forest #Moss #ISeeMoss #Nature #Photography #PNW #GoOutside #Breathe #Notice #Sunbeams

Tidying some files and came across these shots taken last year in early September. Stinky Squid (Pseudocolus fusiformis), a member of the stinkhorn family. Found these in an old, well rotted log in a woodland in Carlisle, eastern Massachussets. #Fungi #Mushrooms #Mycology #Photography #Nikon

And lastly, a species of hoverfly (Eristalis nemorum) on tansy.

Forever wandering into my shot (and always making me laugh).

A gall from a mossy rose gall wasp, found on a dog rose. #nature #photography #insects

Seeds of lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) in the seedpod. Somehow, these really trigger the tripophobes (please feel free to block & mute) but I find them eternally fascinating. Tokikubo, Komoro, Nagano #Plant #Botany 蓮画像なのだ。長野県小諸市鴇久保 #植物

This #lichen featured in previous two posts Corticolous Ruffled lobes Black hair-like cilia and Soralia on margins Brown underside Dark rhizines visible closer to centre underside Think this type might be used as flavour in some Indian dishes Yum If only I could trust my identification #FungiFriends
