The first Colt's-foot is an annual botanical highlight for me. It's distribution is fairly stable overall but has been lost from farmland where it used to thrive amongst the messy edges. It often does well on #brownfield sites. Woolston Eyes Nature Reserve, Cheshire. #wildflowerhour 🌼 #Spring 🌿☘️

#WildflowerHour No winter10 this week, but this beautiful butterbur looks like a valentine's bouquet to me! With it's beautiful pink leaves and liquorice alsort looking flower buds, down by the river in #Lancashire on Friday. @wildflowerhour.bsky.social @bsbibotany.bsky.social #vitaminN

For #BSkyBeer: Vault City's Toffee Nut Latte. Forgot how wonderful this is. Ooodles of flavour, coffee, coffee and more coffee. Splendid. 10/10

For #BSkyBeer: Corsendonk Gold tripel. A copper coloured tripel with light carbonation, an odd aftertaste, but pleasant enough. 8/10

Possibly the oldest stained glass in England, Methuselah at Canterbury Cathedral. Manufactured circa 1178-79 AD. www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/c...

My 2026 #orchid season will begin in 13 days when I fly to Cyprus, for some sun and Ophrys fun, and meet like-minded folk.

Cup run alert! #NCFC

Green Snowdrop, Galanthus woronowii, was a new hectad record on a walk today! It was growing mixed with G. nivalis, but no sign of hybrids. A population to keep an eye on. #RecordSubmitted

Time for high tea. At lunchtime. As you do.

Nothing says "I Love You" better than two bouquets of Tesco's flowers and a £1 card. I saw at least five blokes buying these this morning. #RomanceIsNotDead

A possible Cherubim from a wall painting of 1496 by Clopton. The Guild Church of The Holy Cross, Stratford upon Avon.

Sunshine and frost this morning in east Kent. Have been to the gym and Tesco. Going for high tea later, have been told jeans are not acceptable.

A fresh batch of #Norfolk short cakes

Utterly brilliant sign in the car park at #TheFishes in North Hinksey. The Seacourt stream and the river Thames are indeed overflowing. Floodplains doing their thing.

For #BSkyBeer, On the thirtieth day of Christmas, my beer shop supplied to me: 30. St Fuuillien Cuvee de Noel.. Glorious, so full flavoured. A Christmas jumper in a glass. 10/10

For #BSkyBeer: Licher Pilsner. A good, steady, German Pilsner. 7/10

Temp Role Tudor. I'm here all week. #COYS

Spiranthes diluvialis, our Ute Lady's Tresses orchid, blooming at the Cherryvale Open Space. Listed as Threatened under the ESA, it's growing here in a wet hay meadow. #nativeplants #FallBackFlowers #FallBack to August 13 🌿

Happy 70th birthday to the bass monster, @peterhookthelight.bsky.social #NoHookyNoNewOrder

Eight years ago today 🌿 Oxalis debilis, the nonnative Pink Woodsorrel, blooming at Ke'anae Arboretum

Blue skies!

Five years ago today, I saw my first Redwing (Turdus iliacus), and it came right to our back door.

Discovered Ratibida columnifera (upright prairie coneflower / 'Mexican hat') for the first time today (in the nursery) ... already one of my favourite coneflowers ;) #InTheNursery #Wildflowers #Coneflowers #Summer #Perennials #Gardening #TilbaTilba #BloomScrolling

For #BSkyBeer, On the twenty ninth day of Christmas, my beer shop supplied to me: 29. Kapittel Waton Winter. Excellent, good head, strong flavoured and boozy. 9/10

Introduce yourself with the name your parents almost gave you: Christopher. My surname already had nine letters, so they thought that another ten in my christian name would be too much.

For #BSkyBeer: Berliner Pilsner. A lovely German beer, great flavour and refreshing. 9/10

Love the drollness of paragraphs 7 and 8 of these sentencing remarks. In effect: The court can be sure that you intended this improvised device to be used as a flame thrower... ...because you put a sign outside your house saying Beware of the Flame Thrower.

You’ve heard of Terry the Forg Mage, now get ready for Craig the Toad Wizard. A seriously studious boy, he likes spending his time refining his magical skill in his cozy wizard’s cottage, enjoying a nice cup of coffee, and he definitely isn’t lightly insecure about how cool Terry is. #cuteart #toad

Well, that was a pleasant evening. Great team work, and from the whole squad. #NCFC

Sorry, wassgornorn? #NCFC

What is going on? But I like it!! #NCFC

A mourning cloak butterfly (Nymphalis antiopa) resting on the forest floor in the Sandia Mountains, on February 9, 2026. Mourning cloak adults overwinter (tough little buggers), so it's not a shock to see one come out on a sunny February morning.

Oxalis caerulea, our Blue Wood-Sorrel, blooming at Castlewood Canyon #nativeplants #FallbackFlowers #Fallback to August 10 🌿

Today is Plimsoll Day, an annual celebration of the life of social reformer and MP Samuel Plimsoll (born 1824), and his radical campaign to improve ship safety and protect seafarers' lives. (1/6)
