I had a wren and robin ‘queuing up’ to get in this one. Apologies for the poor image - I didn’t want to disturb the blackbird! 🐦⬛ 🐦
Happy Brighton Pride all. Have a glorious day 🏳️🌈

When the story of why humanity didn't stop climate change is written, it will feature front pages like this. Even as the skies blacken with climate change-induced wildfires, right wing media continue their relentless crusade against measures to tackle it.
‘Climate change is a hoax’ Of course it is. Building monolithic data centres whilst Rome^ burns? End of days. *it’s only a matter of time
