The new European Butterfly Red List is published today, with worrying findings. Over 1/4 (28%) of Europe’s 442 species are threatened with extinction or are close to being so. The situation is far worse for our 148 endemic species, 40% are now threatened or nearly so www.bc-europe.eu/webpage.php?...

This year's incredible fruit crop on the lovingly-tended Arbutus unedo aka Strawberry tree at the old stables on St James's Road, Bermondsey. In Portugal, the "strawberries" or medronho are used to make a delicious brandy. We may give it a try if we can beat the birds to them!

The tree canopy of #Bermondsey looking lush and forest-like after this afternoon's welcome showers. Whoever would guess this is Central London? 💚🌳🌴

The sound of wind in trees is known as psithurism (pronounced sith- err-iz-um) The word comes from the Greek word psithuros, meaning whispering

And asked his way to Norwich;
He went by the south,
And burned his mouth
By eating cold plum porridge." #ManInTheMoon tonight, eve of the #BloodMoon

Take a stroll down Grange Walk, wait for the traffic to clear and listen to the buzz. The Japanese pagoda trees (Styphnolobium japonica) are in flower and covered in honey bees. Resilient to climate change, it's a beautiful and much underrated street tree. #Bermondsey @thestreettree.bsky.social
