22/9/1979 : two fine specimens on Hatfield Moors @brianecambs.bsky.social

I struck blue gold whilst on the Lizard last month. A large colony of scrumptious Riccia crystallina. Much better than the ones I saw at Marazion in 2024

Taraxacum vanum, 3rd British record, North Lincolnshire. By far my best dandelion find of 2024. The handbook really doesn't do it justice, it's quite beautiful

Really pleased to rediscover Sphagnum squarrosum on Hatfield Moors recently. First record - and a new site - since 2007 as far as I'm aware

Wasn't expecting to see this chap today on Hatfield Moors. Sympetrum striolatum often fly until early December on the moors, but I assumed last week's cold spell would have finished them off

Seeing @finleyhutchins2.bsky.social recent post ref Culbin Forest reminded me that I finally saw Cladonia sulphurina there last winter. Another 'most wanted' Cladonia

Cladonia botrytes (with C. portentosa) from a summer visit to the Abernethy forest. I've wanted to see this one for such a long time
