Sunbeams shine into this bluebell beechwood in Oxfordshire, England, creating an ethereal and beautiful springtime capture.
One of my all time favourite photographs from the bluebell bloom in British woodlands.
This photo shows a close-up view of vibrant wildflowers in a grassy field under a stormy sky. In the foreground and midground, there are tall, spiky flower stalks with white and deep purple buds, some still tightly closed and others beginning to bloom. In the lower right, bright blue-purple flowers with white centers are in full bloom. The background features a wide-open meadow with green and yellow vegetation stretching to the horizon.

Noon-ish, the cottage kitchen:
I'm not certain why "tea and toast" seems relegated to a morning meal, but I'm having tea and toast at noon in a moment of defiance and Honestly, if that's breaking some sort of law, well... I suppose I should engage a solicitor!
*butters toast rebelliously*

Flower of the Day - the bees ๐ are enjoying my rhododendron this #InsectThursday. Yay, #Pollinators!
Four baby swans poke around the surface of a lake
Brightly colored ghost pipes emerge from the forest
A cluster of slime mold catches the morning sun
Violet coral fungus stretches outwards in front of a green forest
Happy Earth Day!
English exceptionalism knows no bounds as long as Westminster survives to harbour sycophants such as this.
Now there is no change, Not ever with Starmer, A change in leader, But no change in ethics, morals or standards.
Westminster party's will never serve for Scotland or Wales.

Dear #TargetCEO
You were very clear about what your message is when you capitulated to trumpism.
Go gaslight somewhere else.
Screw you for your attention to this matter.

Went on a walk and saw this cool ass graffiti. Itโs done in sections and can only be seen completely when standing just so. Also, look at the halberd the tiger is holding by his tail!
This black-and-white portrait captures Maggie Kuhn (1905โ1995), the indomitable founder of the Gray Panthers, an activist group that revolutionized the fight against ageism. Seated in a relaxed yet attentive pose, Kuhn is seen in her later years, radiating a sense of sharp-witted wisdom and gentle defiance. She is dressed in a dark, structured, button-down jacket with a small round collar, featuring a prominent circular political button pinned to her left chestโa hallmark of her lifelong commitment to grassroots organizing. Her silver hair is elegantly swept back, and she wears thin-framed glasses that highlight her keen, observant eyes and a slight, knowing smile. Her hands, weathered by time and adorned with simple rings, rest naturally in her lap, one draped over the arm of what appears to be a patterned chair. The background is softly out of focus, showing a glimpse of indoor foliage and a textured wall, suggesting a television studio or public forum setting where she frequently challenged societal norms. The composition is a medium shot that focuses on her presence as a formidable public figure. The mood is one of dignified strength and intellectual vitality, serving as a powerful visual testament to her legacy as a champion for intergenerational justice and the rights of the elderly.

Maggie Kuhn was forced to retire at 65 & dedicated the rest of her life to fighting ageism & advocating for older adults' rights. Founded Gray Panthers, 1970. Was instrumental in the ban on mandatory retirement.
Active until her death #OTD in 1995 at 89.
