Osmia bicolor I filmed arranging sticks a couple of years ago at Stroud Cemetery that I just looked at again and selected this little snippet. Underneath the 'kerplunk' style thatch is an empty snail shell containing an egg and porridge of pollen and nectar 🐝 #bees
I'm keeping this account going but not using the platform (not that I used it much anyway). In case anyone gives a crap... my reasoning is that the Edge Lord in Chief may depart eventually🤞

We said goodbye to our precious whippet Mojo yesterday. He would have been 15 in a few weeks and if it weren't for the aggressive cancer, we're sure he'd have been around to emanate love and support for many more years. Goodbye my friend x

A year ago today, I spotted Spotted Flycatchers in our garden... they raised two broods! We're hoping they return this year... Has anyone seen any in the UK yet? (we're in north #Cumbria ) @SpotyFlycatcher @Natures_Voice

"Nature is on the sidelines – quite literally at times, in the cracks beneath the billboards. Nature does not have a marketing budget. Nature has no new styles; this year’s robin is the same as the previous years."
Greater Bee Flies (Bombylius major) are about up here in #Cumbria. I am pretty sure I saw an Early Mining Bee on the wing too
I was going to say "Happy World Bipolar Day!" but it'll depend on what mood you're in🎭
Seriously tho, if anyone else out there has a diagnosis, this is your day to remember you're an absolute warrior💪
Big love from your wonky friend🫶

My favourite #WildFlower ooo that's really tricky! I think it's got to be the humble yet essential Dandelion. Such an important food source for invertebrates. For me, the flowers that bring *most* joy and hope are orchids, popping up in places they haven't been seen before 💚
For #IWD23 @Jemimasgarden & I picked #Top10Wildflowers for a #WildWomanGarden 🌻 We're giving away 1 copy of #AllMyWildMothers + a selection of seeds to plant your own! To enter Retweet & Comment with your fave wildflower & why. Read what we chose here👇wildwomanlife.substack.com/p…

Really excited about this! I have a feeling I'll be heading north of the border real soon after watching...
