How stunning is this calla lily? Bought the bulb at GW live in June, and planted it a couple of weeks later. #gardening #flowers @gardenersworldmag.bsky.social

Spotted our first batch of robin fledglings this morning #robin #fledgling #garden @rspbengland.bsky.social
Bumblebees don’t understand glass - they get confused and trapped and exhausted. And they die. Likewise with polytunnel plastic. So if you see or hear a #bumblebee buzzing and banging against a window in your house SHE NEEDS YOUR HELP - AND QUICKLY! She’s in trouble. Big trouble! 2/11 #bees
Gorgeous hairy footed flower bee this mornjng on our Acer. The bum waggle is so cute! #bumblebee @bumblebeetrust.bsky.social @katebradbury.bsky.social @thebeeguy.bsky.social
