Anyone noticing LOTs of acorns this year?

It’s looking like 2025 is a mast year, an ecological phenomenon where trees produce bumper crops of seeds and fruits ensuring the next generation of trees and a rich bounty for wildlife! 🌱

Our ancient oak forests are a wonderful sight at the moment 🍁🍂🌿

Irish artists/ supporters of the arts, please check out and fill in this short survey. The Gript/ far right dudes are already sharing it on X and I'd be worried it'll get brigaded.

If we want it to be retained and expanded we gotta drown them out.

✨4 weeks until Dark Crescent is out from @lunapress.bsky.social! Pippin is looking out the window wistfully, hoping for lots of pre-orders as maybe then he might get extra fancy treats...(he told me this himself 👀) Internal art sneak peek, Pip knows how to pose! linktr.ee/lyndseycroal ✨
