I like arts, humour, poetry, water polo, sheds, cooking, history, science and nonsense. IRL the last two are what I do.

poetry
There’s a field on the way to Cambridge where summer Funfayre rides are put up for a few days - I assume to be repaired. They stand under the cold sky like exotic birds resting before continuing their flight south.
Occasionally a train passes, its speed, colour and noise mocking the tired ride.

This is the second time I have photographed one of my favorite Mycena species - this one is found on leaves and has regular water droplets along the stem for a reason which remains a mystery to me.
From the Chocó Andino region of Ecuador.

New Home Office impact assessment finds that cutting skilled and social care visas will cost the UK up to £10 billion with a central estimate of -£5.4 billion.
It would be good if this got even a fraction of the coverage devoted to the endless debate about boats, flags and Turkish barber shops

Despite what you hear from fossil fuel-funded politicians, the U.K has just generated a record amount of clean, domestic wind energy.
Enough to power 23 million homes!

Common Redpolls visit #Manitoba every winter, coming down from more Northern and cold regions of Canada. They are such adorable #Borbs
