Retired nurse, I love wildlife and nature and enjoy seeing other people's photos as mine are pretty useless 🤷. Want to see things that make me smile 😊.
#Birdoftheday alternative was on a #post well, I know it's far away and blurry but this #GoldenEagle was taken in 2016 and he sat for a while before taking off, up near #Ullapool #Scotland

The #RiverSevern in #Shrewsbury is quite high again, even the #BlackHeadedGulls are keeping their feet dry. #birds 🙂

Apologies to #Birdoftheday but I can't find any of my #paddling #birds (I've definitely got herons & egrets somewhere) so here's Paddington instead - close enough? 🤔 🤷 #sorry. Please don't block me 😬🙏

If you want a #ThickTrunkTuesday you can't get much thicker than the Quarry #Oak tree, at #CroftCastle @nationaltrust.org.uk which is 1,000 years old! #trees #nature #ancient 🌳

I feel sorry for #Shrewsbury town council, they cleared all the #debris from under the #RailwayBridge a couple of weeks ago, now a huge tree is wedged stuck 🤦.

#Birdoftheday is #least well I've only seen a #SnowBunting once. This blurry photo was taken on top of #BenNevis in 2016 when we managed to get to the top🚶♀️🚶♂️. The view was amazing but I was captured by the #bird 😂.

In the UK, caged hens have little more space than an A4 sheet of paper - the same size as this drawing.
A big thank you to @chrisgpackham.bsky.social for supporting our #DrawTheLine campaign. His drawing will be part of an art installation next year, calling on the UK Government to #EndTheCageAge.
