Hopefully, fingers crossed for you!
I've just reposted the group advert but we're heading to a beautiful ancient woodland thats a SSSI site beside Mid Calder. Old birch and oak with a couple of spectacular beech trees 😊

This Sunday at 2pm 👇😀 #westlothian #SSSI #Calderwood #naturewalk #Ramble&Chat #autumn

I'm afraid not. Severely lacking in time at the moment with study. Sunday is my one outing this weekend with the Almond Valley nature group at Calderwood. Good luck to you, I'll look out for your post if you see it!

A large tree with a forked trunk stands at the entrance to a footbridge which is only visible to the viewer as 2 curved walls. To cross the bridge the tree must be stepped around. There is a large boulder at it's base. The tree is mostly in shade while the background is in full sunshine.

#thicktrunktuesday this tree guards the entrance to a bridge over the railway at Culloden Wood.

Yeah 😄, first time I've noticed this!

Ah thanks!

A green leaf of a wych elm tree has been nibbled in a pattern with a hole in-between each vein of the leaf.

More nibbling of leaves inbetween the veins. It appears whatever is responsible will eventually be able to remove part of the leaf.

I'd love to know what's going on here! What's making these patterns? Anyone know? #bugsky #wychelm #invertebrate

Ah I see! Mine barely grew in the first place, then I thought it was going to give up. Hope you had a good day with the raptors!

Thank you 😊 I'm just wondering now what is left to pollinate it with it being so late! Did your sunflowers not flower?

My sunflower finally got there! It was the only one to have grown from the several that I planted. The photo on the left is from Wednesday, and on the right photo taken on Friday. #SundayYellow #sunflower

That wagging tail! 😄

😀 isn't it lovely to have these little colourful creatures flying around taking care of all the pollinating!

I remember hearing about plasmidium in undergrad biology. Love that you have some as a pet or should I say pets 😆

You're welcome 😊

Yes it definitely sounds special and quite intriguing about the polar bears. It's on my list now for sure 😀

Happy Frog Friday!
