This is obviously appalling & definitely not to be emulated via this link: www.metoffice.gov.uk/forms/name-o...

I seem to remember Harry Potter spending quite a bit of time in the girls’ toilets with Moaning Myrtle. When will JKR call out his indecent behaviour?

A manuscript thread for birders in particular! Last year I wrote a post showcasing all the beautiful illuminated #birds in @bodleianlibraries.bsky.social MS Bodl.264, but there were many I couldn't identify. Maybe a group effort can help fill the gaps? 🧵
