Was recently sent the late David Welch's copy of Mary McCallum Webster's Flora of Moray, Nairn & E Inverness by @1DavidElston. Straight away was intrigued to see an 1885 record of forked spleenwort (Asplenium septentrionale) at 'Inverfarigaig'. Went out the next day & refound it!

@BritishCurling @scottishcurling @TeamMouat @worldcurling @uk_sport @sportscotland @TNLUK @activestirling1 @TeamGB @BBCSport @STVNews We couldn’t find it at all on the bbc iplayer app on our Firestick, had to go on the browser and go to the link above, just in case anyone else is struggling to find it 😬

Should really have been put in the ‘featured’ section on iplayer sports category.

Inspired by the short film FORAGERS (2022) which is screening for free on https://t.co/BCGM1VIYhV until Thursday this week.

It follows Palestinians foraging traditional food plants who face prosecution under Israeli law.

It’s a powerful, beautiful film. I really recommend it

Aisha Jihad Jalal Shaheen 🕊️
For #ThreadsOfSolidarity I embroidered Aisha’s name, who was less than 1 year old when she was killed during Israel’s current bombardment of Gaza.

Under her name and age is a Palestinian poppy, the national flower. On gauze, named after Gaza.

My bag got stolen in Edinburgh last night and the thing I’m most sad about is it was my @sparksofficial tote bag from their last tour, and it’s now sold out 😭💔

I’ve been grieving and haven’t really felt like creating anything, but I did some stitching last night and it made me feel better. Here’s my current WIP, inspired by rockpools

A morning out looking at butterflies. The Hairstreaks are remaining stubbornly elusive. However this "blue" coloured Valensina type, Silver Washed Fritillary stole the show.

into Parliament for a meeting about seaweed, and wearing, like a total nerd, my @RobinIlexStudio trousers with embroidered patches that include this laminaria hyperborea one
