Orchids have existed for 80 million years, but most of their diversity evolved in just the last 5 million! 🌸

Hi! Tosca would like to ask you to vote for One Garden Against the World in the People’s Book Prize. This will help get a book about biodiversity and climate more attention and could (?!) lead to more gardens for wildlife. We’ve got to dream, right? Thank you!!

Five courgettes just cost me £4.19 in Lidl. What the fuck is going on?

They're here... thanks @rspb.bsky.social

A fly on the beak! 😁
It ended up inside the beak of this Pied Wagtail. 😮😅

Anyone else's #BigGardenBirdwatch severely disappointing this year? Wasn't expecting much as the weather wasn't great on Sunday but we only counted 2 wood pigeons in the entire hour on our patch of communal space out the front of our flat...

Dickerson points to Wagner but initially opens up to Luvu, then rallies back to Wagner. Calcaterra, who should have Luvu, ends up trying to play off of Dickerson, but should just trust the initial call.

And that's how it ends up in an unblocked 3rd down sack for Luvu.

It's #FlyDay...who's ready for the Big Garden Birdwatch weekend??

"Meeeeeee!"
