Can't think of anything lovelier than the mix of garden and wild flowers (aka weeds) growing around my pond at the moment #wildflowers #wildlife gardening

More #SignsOfSpring in High Wood, Durham. I suspect they'll be finished by Easter, when we get back from China, so making the most of them now @bsbibotany.bsky.social

Good to hear that there are signs of life from the stump of the famous tree at Sycamore Gap! This took me a full year to complete but I'm very pleased with the result :-) #needlework #Hadrian'swall

This is what happens when you give our church club kids a generous supply of tinsel. Can't wait to see the faces of some of the more staid members of the congregation on Sunday....

Have finally found my way here having abandoned X some time ago, mainly in search of the lovely community that is @wildflowerhour.bsky.social! Marsh Marigold flowering unseasonably in my pond despite the recent cold weather.
