Knapweed flowers in low sunlight.

Knapweed, oxeye daisies and white tailed bumblebees out today 12th November.

I might faint, I actually got a reply from my MP. It was standard c&p blurb that I expect he sent out to lots of us but still.
I wonder if he’ll now reply to my reply which corrected him on the out of date info he included on UK Gini coefficient & ‘sustainable’ aviation fuel 🧐

a stray dog stands in a bushy area. the dog is blue with golden eyes. he looks majestic as he stares off into the distance.

a group of 4 dogs rest together in a bushy area. two of the dogs are tan, one is black, and the last is blue with long, scruffy fur.

a blue dog is mid-step as he walks through brush.

Some of the stray dogs living near Chernobyl have recently turned blue. This confused scientists for weeks, until they realized they had simply been rolling around in chemicals from a nearby set of portable toilets. 14/10 for all

Yup

Well their attitude to environmental issues has been atrocious, I mean a 3 line whip to stop £30 swift bricks FFS, why??? Not to mention the drilling, the 'build baby build' crap etc. What did they expect would happen if they went for being worse than the bloody Tories?

Six bare root trees ready to plant

Six new Wild Service trees going in. Otherwise known as 'Chequers' trees, for which one of the local pubs, amongst many others around the country, was named. Produces fruit and is completely native but not seen much any more so doing our bit to repopulate!

Celebrity traitors final lineup

See text

Fascinating reading today's article on the film #ChristmasKarma (see quote) & the noise #Reform are already making about its diverse cast, then compare with the final cast in the public hit #CelebrityTraitors.
Seems to me the public are way more progressive than both the film industry & Reform.

Primroses in autumn leaf litter

Pink rose.

Primroses & roses out in November in our garden 🤷

Yeah my dog was shaking & panting fit to have a heart attack from a new neighbours unannounced firework display last night. God knows how all the animals at the farm two doors down did. People don't do fireworks in our village for a reason 🙄

Excellent

Dead hedge & log piles.

Admiring the dead hedging being done along the footpath at Whitlingham Park in Norwich! Nice work.

Pink balloon reading 'its a girl'

Celebrate your new human by chucking a load of plastic into the environment 🤦

Same.

Andi Oliver with the Rabble Allies behind her

Rabble Allies mid performance

Very proud of my Rabble Allies secret surprise performance for Andi Oliver last night. Could only film the dress rehearsal but they did sooo well!

Anti-islamists constantly wang on about Mohammed being a paedophile without accepting the same sort of stories appear in Christianity. America whilst being a proudly Christian country even still has multiple states where child marriage is allowed. More ethical to be against all religion than one!

Was St. Joseph 90 years old when he married the Virgin Mary? Some traditions claim that St. Joseph was 90 years old when he married the Virgin Mary, who was only 14 years old at the time.

Joseph was supposedly very elderly, like 80 and Mary was 14. The anti-Islam bunch don't like hearing that though.

Brilliant

Clearly introverts 😆

Pouring with rain today, glad we spent hours on Sat mowing & raking & chain harrowing this before sowing wildflower seeds, perfect timing. Soil might still be too over improved & need more seasons of raking off but worth a try. All the seeds were collected free locally so we'll wait & see...

Ugh, grim.
Also that's an insane name.

Same as ours, also willow 😄

Looks like an almost identical site to a hornets nest on our little Rewilding project, massive fallen tree log & hornets going in & out of a hole in the end busily.

I struggle to understand how they justify that via the bible teaching pretty much the opposite!

Ok yes I had come across that in Tanzania after some locals had been told similar by white American missionaries. Spectacularly evil imo!

Wow. Awful.

What the heck is the prosperity gospel?? (Non American & non Christian here being totally mind boggled)
