Giving to others is fulfilling. But if you only ever give, you will eventually feel a sense of emptiness. Remember to think of yourself too 🫶 #RoseWednesday #photography #thoughts #ImageandVerse #flowers #onlybeautifulthings #photohour #bloomscrolling #nature #ArtYear #thelittlethings #EastCoastKin

Good morning, the #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #paddling birds standing or walking in shallow water. The alternate is #yellow birds with any yellow colouring. I’ve went with paddling and this Little Egret. Good luck. #birds #photography #EastCoastKin

Good morning and happy Thursday, BS 🦋… have a great day! ☕️🌿🍂☀️🌳🍁💛🌱✨

I almost forgot today is #twosday Black Oystercatchers

To some, it appears I am lost … I move not in the direction the majority move, I view my surroundings through different lenses, I listen for that which is often overlooked, disregarded I am not lost … I’m just not where you are, or, think I should be #Poem #Poetry #EastCoastKin #Lost #NotLost

I think it's important not to overlook the common birds, so here's a beautiful little robin, from RSPB Pulborough Brooks last weekend, early in the morning 😍🌅🐦🪶 #birds #birdphotography

Good morning. Thinking of family members and others who fought during The Great War 1914-1918. Remembrance Day. Beneath the burning sky they rest, names carried on the wind The sun sinks low to honour them, A fallen light for those who’ve gone. #RemembranceDay #photography #Sunset #EastCoastKin

Part of the joy of working with European #orchids is seeing the reaction they elicit, whether in person from my @mariposanature.bsky.social guests or here online. It's so satisfying to see how they touch something in people. I'm currently writing about that emotional response for a new book.

A break from writing today for a short local walk near my Shetland home - hoping for a decent late migrant bird, Woodcock the best I could manage. But delighted to find Smoky Spindles, a fine grassland coral fungus, the first time I’ve seen this on the isle. #FungusFriday

It's bulb planting time! Bulbs make dazzling displays in containers or borders, and they’re also a great source of late winter/early spring nectar for butterflies and moths 🦋 Top 5 bulbs to plant: 🌷 Crocus 🌷 Alliums 🌷 Grape hyacinth 🌷 Winter aconite 🌷 Snake's-head Fritillary 📷: Rob Blanken

3 Days turned into 5 with the Crossbills, as I was asked by friends and visitors to help them find, see, and photograph them. For some it was the first time they had ever seen one. Sharing the experience with others was a pleasure, and I have made more new friends in doing so😊😉

My #StandingOnThings offering is this male #GreatSpottedWoodpecker on a stump, you also get a bonus #BlueTit whizzing past with a nut. #BirdOfTheDay #photography #UKWildlife #birds

Good morning! 🪶

So happy to get a video of this handsome Pileated Woodpecker in good light. 🥰 Have a wonderful weekend everyone!
