Dandelion Appreciation Society
@dandelionappre1.bsky.social
Championing dandelions and all the other under appreciated wild things.
Proper #Summer weather this past week, blazing sun, pouring rain, windy and the chance of a rainbow. Still plenty to see out and about, the #dandelions are bouncing back, seem to appreciate the rain at last. #wildwebswednesday #NatureCommunity
Summer evenings in the woods, birds having a last shout, the roe deer watching, time well spent 😊 #thicktrunktuesday #TreeClub #Trees
Have a lovely #SundayYellow everyone, the textures of sow thistles always stand out so well when caught by the sunlight. #wildflowers
These are my favourite pieces of glass in this window - yes! The dandelions - can you spot them?
#InsectThursday is here, and there are lots about. Green eyed flower bees sooooooo zoomy, and I think Lissonota lineolaris also a fidget both made me giddy 🤣 #Insects #NaturePhotography #flies #pollinators #PollinatorWeek
Happy #wildwebswednesday got excited when it finally rained last week. Dashed out to see the raindrops on the flowers. Nice to be seeing roosting butterflies on evening strolls. Seeds and seed heads are throwing some amazing shapes too. #dandelion #wildflowers #NaturePhotography
Ahhhhh and relax. A walk in the dappled light beneath a canopy of dancing green leaves. Cooler here as the sun beat down on Saturday. Thanks #trees 😊. #thicktrunktuesday #NaturePhotography #NatureInspired
Tiny #bees in #dandelions and ants hauling borage seeds from a bright orange gazania, so many #pollinators can easily go unseen. #Ladybirds and their larvae are everywhere it seems right now. Lots of #butterflies inc some very fresh red admirals and skippers. #InsectThursday
Happy Monday folks, spotted this thick thighed beetle on a #dandelion yesterday. Not so many dandelions out on my walking routes at the moment but lots of these beautiful jewel like beetles! #nature #springwatch #NaturePhotography #beetles
#PeaFamilyChallenge #wildflowerhour late as usual folks, hope you have had a good weekend. #wildflowers
@savebutterflies.bsky.social Wow, how long are those antennae compared to the main body of the moth! Yellow Barred Longhorn Moth, I believe. #Moths #MothsMatter #Insects
The rain has refreshed the plants, and the colours are really zingy. Happy #SundayYellow one and all. #dandelions, #Buttercup , corn marigold and catsear with a hopeful crab spider for good measure 😊 #wildflowers
A dandelion daring to stand out in a field of forget-me-nots, for tonights #wildflowerhour #WildFlowerShow #SundayYellow #Bloomscrolling 🌱
Its #InsectThursday and I just love all the amazing shapes, colours and textures. The wasp bottom right was stunning might post separately another day. #pollinators #bees #Beetles #dragonflies
Happy #WildWebsWednesday folks, happy duck spotting. Mallard clearly thought it was invisible 😅. Proud parent alert, son attended DofE award event at Buckingham Pal recently. He found the wild parts of the garden and #dandelions and goslings #Wildlife bottom right 3 images.
Little walk in the woods as the evening drew in, the canopy is so lush and green at the moment. Have a great #thicktrunktuesday wherever you may be. #TreeClub #trees #NaturePhotography
Happy #wildflowerhour, so beautiful out and about right now. 3 in there for the #OrchidChallenge. Must confess I need to ID the yellow flower, I know I should know it but can't bring the name to mind. #NaturePhotography #Wildflowers
Good morning, looked up walking beside a sandy cliff and spotted this catsear mimicking the sun high above. Have a lovely day #SundayYellow
Stunning little #dandelion nestled in amongst the long grasses, looked almost like a tiny crown. #SundayYellow #Wildflowers
I was excited that there might be some raindrops on the garden #dandelion clocks. Found this #bumblebee taking shelter. Serious bedhead at one stage. Looked so cosy! After a while it was happily off amongst the flowers being a busy 🐝. #InsectThursday
Happy #thicktrunktuesday everyone, love the bright green of the fresh leaves making mottled patterns across the #tree trunks as the sun casts it's evening beams. #TreeClub
Happy to say my #pinkfamily photos for #wildflowerhour were all taken in my little garden. Love red campion and ragged robun blooming amongst the buttercups, roses and attracting so many #pollinators. #wildflowers
