😂
I thought this one had finished as it got battered in various storms but it's having another go 😊

A big self-seeded Borage popped up this year 💙
It's far better than any I grew myself, it's grown huge and is still flowering now 💙
I'm getting more and more convinced that direct sowing and just scattering seeds about is the way to go 😂
What would nature do?

A Borage plant with several blue star-like flowers with black centres.
The plant is growing against a fence.

We always knew that Labour cares about little else other than keeping private developers happy.

But here's proof showing off to JP Morgan despite destruction of some of the "rarest creatures in our country."

Let's make that description Labour votes.

A moment of calm with six spoonbills at our Dingle Marshes nature reserve 🌾

Containing Britain's biggest fresh water reedbed and located in a prime coastal condition Dingle Marshes is a haven for wading birds, and an excellent stopping-off point for many migrators.

The Redwing steals the show in today’s #AutumnArrivalSpotlight! 🍂

Their rusty red flanks and soft ‘seep seep’ calls are a sure sign of autumn as flocks sweep in overnight from icy Scandinavia, Iceland and Russia.

Spot them enjoying berries in our fields and hedgerows.

Plant a hawthorn! These native trees are wonderful for wildlife, supporting all sorts of creatures – including more than 300 insect species. The blossoms, berries and leaves are a good source of food for bees, birds, caterpillars and more.

Little spooky friends!
I’m too colourful to be Goth, but inhabit a space adjacent, and my Emotional Support Skull badges live in that same place.

Skulls💀, yes, but look at those heart eyes 😍 💛💚 Befriend one today!

Trip number three to the snack bar for Ravi today! Connie conjectures that he may be bulking up for winter. You know, our ‘harsh’ SoCal winters..
Good to see you, buddy! I’m sure I won’t tomorrow cuz going to work.

A roadrunner has made three trips to the snack bowl of mealworms today. He is up on a small wooden table next to the bowl that has food. Tall Deergrass behind in the backyard is turning brown from the dry summer.

Just get in touch for details.
