That's stunning!

Thanks Simon, good to know.

Really curious and probably a really silly question, but when taking photos at that time of day, are you able to camp up there overnight or do you have to hot-foot it back down the mountain?

I can't like this enough! Absolutely stunning photo.

Word of the Day is a true favourite, as some of you will know.

Apricity (17th century) is the warmth of the sun on a winter’s day.

Ah yes, the Democrats have been capable of committing fraud all along, but we decided to *only* use it for one random House race, while allowing ourselves to lose the Senate, House, and White House. Airtight logic.

The FBI should be allowed to vet Matt Gaetz and Tulsi Gabbard.

Pass it on.

Can we get this save our NHS starter pack followed by all?

Please share like mad!

We MUST save our NHS 💙

WOW. NBC News is reporting that more than half of the Republican Senate caucus privately admits that the Gaetz nomination will not succeed.

Repost if you think they should make their concerns public.

UK here 💚💙

Have you tried using a thermal imager / hand net combo to locate and catch? Our catch rate in Herts has rocketed since we started on that, compared with solely drag netting.

They're stunning aren't they? Do you normally get them on that site?

Amazing isn't it? In the UK it's known as a Woodcock moon. 🐦‍⬛💚

By far the most liked post in my 16 years on Twitter.. Something tells me BlueSky will enjoy it too..

Hi folks of Bluesky, here are some calming waves for you all, courtesy of the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland. Enjoy. 💚

If you see this, post a beach photo from your gallery.

Thanks Christoph, much appreciated. Have a great day.

I can almost hear the sea and feel it lapping over my toes! Where is this?

Gorgeous! Thanks for sharing.

Stunning photos Christoph! Which mountain is in the bottom right photo?

Oh OK, thanks Stuart. Let's hope it ventures to Rye Meads 🤞

Is this today?

Can you let us know which species of Owl that is please? Also, which country do you ring / band in? Thanks

My word of the day (and personal recommendation) is ‘snerdling’ (18th century): nestling cosily beneath the covers and holding off the day a little longer.

Morning.

The American public and the Senate Judiciary Committee deserve to see the Matt Gaetz report.

Repost if you agree.

Someone who was investigated by the Department of Justice for sex trafficking should not be confirmed to lead that same department. Pass it on.
