What do this ancient oak, this swallowtail, this natterjack have in common?

1) They live on Norfolk Wildlife Trust reserves.

2) They benefit from people buying This Wild Dream. ALL profits go to NWT (nothing to me).

This oil sketch by John William Waterhouse dates from the late 1890s and is most likely a study for Narcissus; 'Echo and Narcissus,' was Waterhouse's major work in the 1903 Royal Academy Exhibition.

Alfred Munnings was associated with the Newlyn School of artists in Cornwall between 1912 and 1914; this painting captures a spring night in the historic fishing village.

Oh, that is sad news. The Lord was a joy on here. Rest in power and peace @cha0tic.bsky.social . #TheArchers gang will be diminished without you.

Much love to everyone who loved him.

What, and I don't say this lightly, an absolute up-his-own-fundament twat.

Comparing himself to Oscar Wilde is only one moment.

Although tbf, his rant on racism in the NHS and other places has some merit.

What you have to be careful of though, is if he escapes the jam jar, there’s a chance he’ll multiply and you’ll end up with an occupying force of really tiny ignorant sociopaths in your carrots.

The moon over the Peacock Towers garden this evening.

'Evening, Killarney.' (1941) Speaking to an art critic in the 1930s, Paul Henry said: 'What always strikes me about the Irish landscape is its otherworldliness. There's an air of mystery about it ... you feel that anything may happen round the corner.'

Calm sea to the left, deserted beach with dunes to the right, low hills beyond. Two sorts of clouds, fluffy ones and stretched out ones, both altocumulus

Oh be still my beating heart, altocumulus floccus AND lenticularis. What an evening.

Perfectly lovely, and I wouldn't kick anyone out of bed for eating them but they are 2nd division.

This is my true and right opinion and I will brook no opposition. Thank you for your attention to this matter. 😁

Perfectly nice, and I wouldn't turn one down, but the lack of paper envelopes makes them second division.

I look forward to seeing progress... xx

Before Jean-François Millet achieved success as a painter of peasant life, he earned his early living as a portraitist. Here, he depicts the wife of a lifelong friend in a style reminiscent of 17thC Dutch painters. Millet captures the sitter's self-containment, reserve, and poise
