Being home all the time (sick husband) means I’ve seen quite a few species including, 11 types of young birds, Emperor Dragonfly, Pipistrelle Bat, Slow Worm, Hedgehog, Palmate Newt and 85 moth species as well as Raven, Peregrines, Buzzards etc so not bad at all for a small garden

This well-preserved early medieval wooden flask once contained a beer that had been strengthened with honey. It was found in Trossingen. Due to the water-logged condition of the area, many wooden objects have survived. Dating 580 AD 📷 @almbawue.bsky.social 🏺 #archaeology

Just had a random thought about fish paste come into my thoughts. Who remembers having the different flavours of Shippam's paste from the little jars in their sandwiches in the 1970's? I used really enjoy them.
