As its not on today's theme, I'm going early with #bsbi #wildflowerhour. These are completely native daffs in a small reserve in Gloucestershire in the golden triangle, which was stunning yesterday. One person seeing this was nearly in tears...

Have double checked, and yes, Dennis Kell has used the #BSBI App to enter the record :)
Right. Going to stop doom/gloom scrolling (I can't change things & it doesn't help my state of mind) & do some more #BSBI data entry (useful, positive & not dull if you focus on both the interim outcome in terms of rare/scarce species seen Saturday + the end result for plant distribution analysis).

Some flowering later, some flowering earlier - climate change squeezing winter out of the calendar.

#NewYearPlantHunt
Finding flowers on a cold January day for the #BSBI #NewYearPlantHunt. The thick frost and nithering temperatures made for few flowers. But there's always something in the ginnels and snickets of #Calverley #Leeds.
#pulmonaria, #calendula, #vincamajor and #cardamine
At least 48 spp today on a small #BSBI #NewYearPlantHunt at Blandford Forum, including Hazel, Field Pansy, Greater Celendine and Oxeye Daisy.
Don't forget - tomorrow sees the 1st ever #BSBI #NYPH - pub-crawl combo (at least that anyone can remember... (hic)). Looking forward to seeing everyone (including @norwichbirder.bsky.social on his local patch) for another great day of finding plants in flower!
Tomorrow looks like being dry and bright, if a little on the cool side. Anyone keen to chase away a few cobwebs or work off that one mince pie too many is welcome to join us at #BTO Headquarters in #Thetford at 1030 for the first of the #BSBI #Norfolk #NewYearPlantHunts!! 🌹🪷🌷🏵️
We're looking forward to the #BSBI #NewYearPlantHunt and there's 3 group hunts registered in Dorset if you'd like to join us.

Would've carried on quite happily, but #BSBI Committees have a 9 year max term (fresh minds, fresh ideas etc) which is a good thing.
Just 2 sleeps to go before the #BSBI #NewYearPlantHunt!!! bsbi.org/take-part/ac...
Here in sunny #Norfolk, the #NorfolkFloraGroup is running 3 events: Thetford on 1st Jan; Norwich (incl @bramblebotanist.bsky.social's pub crawl) on 2nd Jan and Sheringham on 3rd Jan. Join us. Make new friends! 🥰

Best ever present. #BSBI changed the trajectory of my entire life (that might not sound like a good advert, but I'm happier and healthier as a result of all that plant-hunting).
For our first event of 2026 we are participating in the @bsbiireland.bsky.social New Year Plant Hunt! 🌱🔍
💚Suitable for beginners and experts alike
📍For our inaugural IWT New Year Plant Hunt, we will go to North Bull Island in Dublin.

One flowering grass head in the middle of the photo. The head is hanging down on a very fine stem. The grass is pale like paper with green streaks.
One Periwinkle flower against leathery green leaves. The flower has five petals in a whirl around a central area where the reproductive parts are just visible. The petals are a bit damaged by winter wind
