Big wigs, hotdogs, red canaries, mushrooms and one big fustylupps mopsy. Timestalker by Alice Lowe is an absolute gem. Go see it twitter peeps.

Not a brilliant shot... but I count that as a definite aurora. My first time seeing. Jupiter looking very magnificent as always.

Having a little play with Bluesky - Nice that the timeline is not full of bots and bollocks. @scottworld.bsky.social

Nice you can even do domain verification on Bluesky. Bagged me a username - and you cant impersonate as I own the domain. - and I don't have to pay for a blue tick. @scottworld.net

A great night out with Carlton Kirby in my local town.

Hosting a Honey extraction workshop today. Sticky mess inbound (and the roof is about to come off the building)

Watching the New Years roll over in Japan (My 2nd home) and 10 mins to midnight a train rolls past (on time of course) - No chance here !.

Quick 30 mins out in the cold... managed to get a shot of Jupiter. There was a bit of haze and the scope started to get condensation. Got a few cloud bands though. 6 inch Scope, with about 200 frames stacked.

Beeswax extraction day... always very satisfying.

Very low in the west.. sun coming up amd a little bit of cloud. (Adds to the mood)

Very low in the west... sun coming up and some haze.

Another one ... just through the trees before it gets too low.

New Queens... not bad 50% grafting success. Back in the hive for a few more days for the ladies to finish building the cells.

Ooops ... #radio4 . Referring to Cathering Heymans as the "Astrologer" royal. I am pretty sure she does not try and predict the future... but prefers to study the cosmos.

Ahhh summer. And we are making honey !!!

Heading to Malo from St Helier. Just in time to catch a tour stage. I have my #CKFC cap, to parade at the start.

Had my visit from DEFRA today. Bee Inspection. - All passed with no issues There was a disease outbreak in the area, luckily my bees seem to have avoided it.
