Thought I'd struggle to find anything with the meadows having been cut for hay, but ended up finding so many #StillFlowering that I couldn't fit them all in the collage. Photos taken this week around the farm & a few from Porth Trecastell #Anglesey earlier today #Wildflowerhour

Small-flowered Catchfly, Silene gallica from BSBI: Botanical Society of Britain & Ireland Summer Meeting in Guernsey my botanical #FavouriteFind of 2024 for #Wildflowerhour

Twittter used to be an enjoyable way to share your views/discuss your interests. Now X is a platform for scantily clad girls to bombard everyone with unwanted attention. Might as well have changed the name to X-rated. Come on Elon Musk please sort this out 👃

An amazing collection still in flower seen on today's survey with Anglesey Flora Group Anglesey Flora Group #Wildflowerhour Best finds were Datura stramonium, Orbanche minor & Blackstonia perfoliata

Local #Lapwing have started their own version of a 'murmuration'. Must be close to 2000 birds. #Anglesey @AngBirdNews

For the 1st day of this year's #NewYearPlantHunt a walk through Aberffraw Dunes #Anglesey with 4 species in flower - Gorse, Dandelion, Groundsel & Poa annua Bee Orchid rosettes too & a lovely cluster of Honey Fungus I think growing on driftwood on the beach #Wildflowerhour

We don't often get frost on Anglesey but last night we did 🥶 A tiny defiant fungi amongst the lawn moss for #WildWebsWednesday

It's the 30th annual Anglesey Chough Count tomorrow (8/2/25). If you're lucky enough to see a #Chough anywhere on #Anglesey please let me know a grid ref & photos to show id would be great. #birding #birdwatching #NaturePhotography

Marsh Marigold flowers beginning to open this week. Apparently farmers used to hang the flowers over cattle byres on May Day to protect the cows from faeries and witches #wildflowerhour

4 clumps of Frog spawn spotted just now in my garden pond. Spotted on 3 March last year too. #spawnmap Pond Dip🐸

Didn't need to search too hard for this week's #Wildflowerhour challenge #YellowFlowers Daffodils, Gorse, Lesser Celandine, Dandelion & Marsh Marigold all found within a few minutes walk from the front door 😃🌼

What a pleasure to welcome Mike Dilger Mike Dilger 💚 to see the #Chough in my garden yesterday. Reduced numbers due to the imminent breeding season but we were still treated to a visit by 32 individually identifiable colour ringed birds. Cerrig Cottages, Isle of Anglesey

The incessant ads & scantily clad followers has finally made my mind up. So it's goodbye to Twitter until things change. Hoping to catch up with my previous followers on Blue sky. Mandy Forde @mandyforde.bsky.social
