Oh these are the bees knees. My family has one and it's vintage. I have a sort of fake imitation one that runs on batteries.

Artomyces pyxidatus, the Crown-tipped Coral or Candelabra Coral fungus, was not seen in the UK over the entire 20th century, its last record in 1886 until a spate of recent findings around 2022, which is when I found this specimen (in East Kent). Where did it disappear all this time?

Heyo Portland/PNW artists, this is for you!!

An illustration of a young women yanking a weed out of a bed of marigolds. The primary colours of the piece are deep green and a saffron yellow, with some brown and moss green tones as well. The camera is looking up at the young girl with a forced perspective, as she pulls out the weed while leaning back. The text reads: PULL FASCISM UP BY THE ROOT.

I hate that our government websites are now using this language. It's giving highschool bully - on an official government page. I can't. It is so horrifically inappropriate I didn't believe it, checked myself, and now I'm just left feeling so... furious.

Mushroom pictures make things slightly better, right? RIGHT?!

Mushrooms sprout in a damp pasture along the #UmpquaRiver in SW #Oregon as fall colors brighten the landscape. Seasonal rains have brought a spurt of new fungi growth across the region #macrophotography #nature #mushrooms #photography

A tall mushroom grows against a wall of dark brown soil and bright green moss. Its stipe is white and has a chunk missing from it, likely due to being eaten by a slug. A skirt of white mushroom flesh hangs against the stipe right underneath the cap. The cap is a gorgeous blend of yellow at the edge of the cap, to orange, and then red at the top of the cap.

It's Amanita season! These beautiful mushrooms are popping up where we live, and I'm so ready for it
