@greengathering.bsky.social Encouraging you to use Bluesky a little more. After all @zackpolanski.bsky.social @labourlewis.bsky.social @hedgehoghugh.bsky.social And @shane-collins.bsky.social can't all be wrong can they?
In case you were wondering about what is generating power in the UK right now
Just a snapshot of how much solar the UK is now generating. My Octopus Off Peak tariff now uses excess solar during the day and only charges the off peak rate for it. Well done @octopus.energy for sharing this cheap stuff with your customers.
It may be there if you scroll up to the original post, but here it is again
Because when you have 5 homes you have to borrow someone else's too.
While Nige gets his lackeys to bang on about how important it is to have the right security detail, please don't forget that he has had a lot of other dodgy bungs that were never alleged to be for his security.
Seeing as how everyone is offering Andy Burnham unsolicited advice, here's mine Outflank that nice @zackpolanski.bsky.social bloke on the left. Go truly radical on immigration, NHS workers rights, state ownership, taxing the rich, net zero and biodiversity. Then we have two parties to vote for.
A couple spotted right by Millers Dale Station for #Wildflowerhour
We asked the astrophysicist in the swim group what time the solstice was today. He said. "It's the moment when the earth's north pole points at its closest to the direction of the sun. That moment really is 9:24am." Which beats the heck out of getting up at 3am to see the sunrise. 09.24 Fernilee
Come to Cunningdale they said. You might see a Melancholy thistle they said. They're rare they said. There were hundreds of them down there, loved by the insects, and I checked the map, they are indeed rare. Especially in the south
Once again, @billmckibben.bsky.social sums it up better than I could ever hope to. From todays Guardian.
When they describe something as 'locally abundant' it's hard to know what they mean till we saw these banded Demoiselle damsel flies along the banks of the river Avon near Stratford today
Saw this beauty at Compton Verney yesterday. Pretty sure it's a small heath
Some Early Purple Orchids in a wood. #OrchidChallenge #wildflowerhour
Same principle. I pay the local council to cut the verges. By adding a bit of rope and a sign I got them to stop them cutting this bit outside my house
Why dandelions in your lawn are good part 2. After the Bees have fed on the nectar the Goldfinches come and eat the seeds.
News just in. It was Holly Valance that persuaded Farage to stand for election not that dodgy bloke who moved to Thailand and gave him a £5,000,000 bung.
Get a (guerilla) wild flower area and wildlife will come they said. This little dude has come all of the way from North Africa to drink the sweet nectar of the dandelions. More details of the butterfly that migrates even forther than the American Monarchs here. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanessa...
