Forests, hills, bogs, boreo-temperate-oceanic stuff & everything in them (incl people). Ecologist. Tweets definitely my own.

We’re considering getting another dog. Does anyone know of someone planning a huntaway litter later this year? Like our border collie they’d be a dog that goes to work, though not in the traditional sense… think surveys rather than sheep! Gus Routledge
Missed #wildflowerhour (again) last night but I timed my visit to the local purple saxifrage (Saxifraga oppositifolia) absolutely spot on for peak blooming this year! Magnificent!
Was recently sent the late David Welch's copy of Mary McCallum Webster's Flora of Moray, Nairn & E Inverness by David Elston. Straight away was intrigued to see an 1885 record of forked spleenwort (Asplenium septentrionale) at 'Inverfarigaig'. Went out the next day & refound it!
Thanks to everyone who came along to Hopeman this morning to celebrate the start of #CitizenScience month with a #BigSeaweedSearch for Natural History Museum & beach litter survey for Marine Conservation Society 🌊
What other coastal citizen science surveys shall we do this month?
