Huge thanks to @sarahfaulkner.bsky.social & everyone else who shared pix for tonight's #WildFlowerHour: you've really brightened our evening!

Always a treat to see everyone's pictures for #wildflowerhour - very uplifting.
My contribution is from Chesil Beach today. Still some gorgeous Thrift in flower there. Even when the pretty pink petals have dropped, the remaining flower is rather beautiful, with a little yellow star in each "cup".

After a short bimble round the woods this morning I found these absolutely tiny fungi.
I think it’s maybe Beechleaf Bonnet (Mycena capillaris)

There's still time to stop Berwick Bank, but only if we make ourselves heard.

Berwick Bank could kill more birds than any other windfarm on Earth, devastating colonies of Gannets, Puffins and Kittiwakes off Scotland’s coast. 🚨
We support renewables, but not at catastrophic cost to seabirds already in crisis.
