You may have witnessed @CarlBovisNature at the centre of an attack on here. It’s by a troll ring run by one individual who has targeted others, including hedgehog charities, hedgehog rescues & nature writers in the same pernicious way, for years (vast amounts of screenshots & evidence to show this)-with brutal relentless online attacks using multiple accounts, some of which use vile language, centred around hedgehogs (I know, it seems very unlikely but it is the case). The aim is to defame & bring down their target. PLEASE do not engage with the accounts attacking Carl-I know you will want to (I do too) bc he’s bloody ace but they thrive off it-they *want* that & are gaining intense dopamine hits from knowing people are upset & coming to his defence. Report them tho & their vile tweets. There is no kindness or empathy there. None, only an urge to bring a brilliant creator down. The best way to help Carl is to ignore their toxic bile, block them ALL & engage positively with his wonderful bird photos as tho the gits do not exist. If they (she) have/has nothing to grind their axe against they will go quiet & Carl can recover. This kind of attack can do serious harm to mental health. We can put an end to it with silence-quiet strength. 🌿
Woodpigeon in my Somerset garden recently. 😍
I posted the cropped version of this photo a few weeks ago, but I think this wider view is lovely too, how about you? 😀🐦
The end of the day and a little gift to myself. I wish you could smell the sweet peas, they are so lovely.
Feeling grateful for all that my garden provides. 💚
A few weeds. Some self-seeders. Plants finding their own companions.
Not perfectly curated, but full of life.
Good design and habitat can coexist beautifully, sometimes nature just needs a seat at the table. @BenGoldsmith@The_RHS
A work colleague sent me this photo of sheep in a field of dandelions taken on his evening walk. I think it’s beautiful. He gave me permission to post it and reckoned it might get 100 likes. I bet him it would make at least 1000. Off you go folks - do your thing 😂
Tim Curry’s entrance as Dr. Frank-N-Furter in The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975) takes over instantly, that elevator reveal into “Sweet Transvestite” and the film is his from that moment on.
