Why is it always the poorer people who have to pay?
Those with more to lose should be keener to prevent the loss.
"When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose" - Bob Dylan

Brexiter Arlene Foster who now sits in the House of Lords wants to cut welfare support and spend the money on defence instead

Brexit costs the UK £90 billion in lost tax income every year,if we didn't have Foster's Brexit we could keep supporting those in need while also ramping up defence spending

British Iron Age gold coins worth £33,000 sold to US collectors The collection was found in a field near Bury St Edmunds features distinctive horse designs

At least this records that folks were appalled by the sale...

Springtime is coming fast....

Alan H's @alan678.bsky.social theme for today's #BirdOfTheDay is #PerfectLight. Here is a Green Heron (Butorides virescens) that had concealed itself in foliage. Almost invisible until the dappled sunlight fell on it and illuminated that yellow eye. Taken at Sweetwater Strand, along Loop Road, Big Cypress Preserve, Florida Everglades.

Scaly breasted munia in flight carrying nesting material (grass)

Be it native or non-native like this Scaly-breasted Munia

Birds don’t ignore their base calling. Spring — a time to come together, sing, and make babies

I don’t see birds putting other birds in detention centers, defining borders or grifting the earth of its natural resources

It’s just love…

8/6/25 Yorkshire - The Small White #Orchid (Pseudorchis albida) is far rarer than it should be, as a species that tolerates a wide range of habitats. Unfortunately overgrazing (baa) and improvement has rendered this plant particularly rare in England and Wales #wildflowerhour @bsbibotany.bsky.social

The collections at @nhm-london.bsky.social are full of glorious specimens esp the Flies. But they also come with lots of extra information

Roger Crosskey wrote down his feelings 50 years ago about this species complex - his frustration evident
