One of today's visitors to the buddleia in my garden, this gorgeous Peacock butterfly (Aglais io). The bush is alive with Red Admirals, Commas and Small Whites also present at the same time 😊 🦋 #nature #butterflies #butterfly #photography #phonephotography #samsung #conwy #northwales

A beautiful Red Admiral (Vanessa atalanta) on the fragrant buddleia in my garden this afternoon. No wonder they call it the butterfly bush. #nature #butterflies #butterfly #photography #phonephotography #samsung

Clumps of Harebells (Campanula rotundifolia), with their delicate, papery, bell-shaped blue-violet flowers, decorate the meadow at Bryn Cadno, Colwyn Bay, North Wales tonight #wildflowerhour #flowers #wildflowerhour #goldenhour #conwy #wales #photography #phonephotography #nature

Happy Brexit anniversary

Anyone got any idea what this tiny thing is? It's growing on a heath in Colwyn Bay, North Wales. #wildflowerhour @bsbibotany.bsky.social

A collection of the wildflowers on show at Bryn Cadno, Colwyn Bay tonight. All lovely but my favourite is undoubtedly the foxglove #wildflowerhour #flowers #conwy #wales #photography

Greater Stitchwort (Stellaria holostea) also known as Star-of-Bethlehem & Wedding Cake. At the moment it carpets the side of the path to Yr Olygfa (The View) in Bae Colwyn / Colwyn Bay in North Wales #nature #wildflowerhour #photography #flowers #conwy #northwales #naturephotography

Came across this fine specimen of Lords-and-Ladies (also known as Arum maculatum or Cuckoo Pint) on my evening walk with the dog this evening. Always feels like such an exotic plant to find on a Welsh roadside #photography #nature #wildflowerhour #flowers #conwy #wales

The northern slope of Bryn Euryn in Conwy, North Wales is carpeted with Cowslip (Primula veris) at this time of year #photography #nature #wildflowerhour #flowers #conwy #wales #northwales

Gloomy start to February in North Wales. But even in this stark and barren scene you can make out the buds at the tips of branches, sheltering the life that will soon burst forth and bring colour back to this ancient land. #nature #landscape #photography #phonephotography #mobilephotography #wales

Caught this little fella helping himself to some Christmas berries yesterday. As he perched, set against a cold, clear, cerulean sky, I thought he looked like he was in a Van Gogh painting #birds #rspb #nature #Vincent #vangogh #conwy #wales

No. 3 in my "What If History" series, made with the help of Google Notebook to illustrate the ideas. This time, what if Henry V hadn't died in 1422, aged just 35, and had lived to succeed Charles VI as King of France? #history #skystorians #englishhistory #frenchhistory youtu.be/MyirPKtGCX8?...

More fun with alt-history. This time, what if Harold won the Battle of Hastings and England (and English) developed along a different path without French influence. #alt-history #history #skystorians #norman #saxon #battleofhastings #william #bayeux youtu.be/jo-ozDB77wA?...

Had some fun with Google Notebook. Fed it an alternative world based on one of history's main sliding doors moments...What if Richard III had aborted his fateful charge at Bosworth and survived to fight another day? #history #skystorians #tudor #warsoftheroses #richardiii youtu.be/mpBQO7FLNtY?...

It's been lovely walking Benji on the Bryn every evening this summer 😊🌞🌄 #dogs #summer #nature #goldenhour #sunset #northwales #conwy #photography

Lots of butterflies on my evening walk at Bryn Cadno, Colwyn Bay tonight and lots of different species too, including red admirals, peacocks, meadow browns and this ringlet @savebutterflies.bsky.social #nature #wildlife #butterflies

Fabulous editorial work from the @the-independent.com this morning. Went with a big splash headline about a 2000% increase in the King's wealth, before they realised their maths was shit 😂😂😂 #maths #mathematics #royalfamily #blunders #oops

Bluebells on the hill last evening. #wildflower #wildflowerhour #photography #bluebell #samsung #phonephotography #wales #conwy #northwales

Saw this in my garden just now. Not sure if it's a good omen for tomorrow night, or a harbinger of doom. Would be worse if it was a crow or a raven, I suppose. Or a vulture 😂 #spurs #coys #thfc #tottenham #tottenhamhotspur #rspb #twitching #birds #blackbird #photography #birdphotography

Out for a walk with the dog this morning, in bleak but beautiful North Wales. Took a snap of a snarling, pouncing wolf in the trees #trees #wolf #wolves #winter #illusion #wales #northwales #conwy #snow
