Plants, flowers, gardening, growing. Always my own pic (android phone cam) from my garden, botanical gardens, other people's gardens, garden centres, woods, fields, parks, car parks, cracks in the pavement... I repost a lot too North West England
Last week I was working on a project when my keyboard died. To celebrate my new keyboard, here's a few pics from what I'm working on, a video about carnivorous pitcher plants :). #carnivorousPlants #gardening #sarracenia #bloomscrolling #nature
Walls may not seem the most hospitable of environments but the plants that can survive there can be surprising! See if you can find any flowering #WallPlants for this week’s challenge & share your pics for #wildflowerhour this Sunday 8-9pm!

Sleepy Red-tailed Bumble #Bee on some heather waving one of her legs at me yesterday to get me to back off cause the phone was maybe getting a bit too close & she'd only just woken up & wasn't ready for photos yet. #ColorADay #RedWed #bugsky #nature #photography #bees

A peacock butterfly caught in the web of a cross-orb weaver spider, this was difficult to get a pic of because the butterfly was fighting like mad to escape. #WildWebsWednesday #BugSky #InsectThursday #Nature #Spiders #Arachnids
“Britain is a safer country than it was. Rates of homicide in England & Wales are the lowest since 1977. Domestic burglary has decreased by 50% since 2010. So has vehicle theft, & even phone theft, which has fallen by 70%. Despite this, most people think that crime is up” Hettie O’Brian, Guardian
along our whole driveway it smelled like pineapple. Scented mayweed or German chamomile 🌱 #gardening

Buy Gil Duran's book The Nerd Reich; know that the free zone rollout is global. UK has 91 free zones since Brexit. Tories and Labour colluded on carving up the UK into corporate governed territories via secondary legislation. ZERO Parliamentary debate ZERO consultation with public and press.
