Abertreweren Wood this evening.

Only something that is conscious can, in a particular situation, deliberately do the opposite of what it would usually do automatically in that situation?

A happy conjunction on my YouTube feed today:

A rabbit or a hare? (Unusually resting and cleaning itself in the open on my lawn in Wales; my photo.)

Sad to hear of the closure for financial reasons of The Moon in Womanby Street, Cardiff. More people need to come out and listen to our fantastic live local music if such venues are to thrive. Streaming and attending a few stadium gigs doesn't cut it if we want a vibrant local. music scene.

Something is growing in the log shed. But what?

Traditional hedge laying in progress on our smallholding, with support from a grant from the Brecon Beacons (Bannau Brycheiniog) Local Nature Partnership. It is at least 20 years since it was last done. beacons-npa.gov.uk/wp-content/u...

Anything expressed in words is a gross approximation of what is really going on; including this.

Painting of my wife and dog whilst walking the Ardnamurchan peninsular in Scotland, and reference photo. (Acrylic on paper).

Enjoyed seeing the paintings by Tim Rossiter based on the poetry of Taliesin, in Y Gaer museum and art gallery, Brecon until 19 January 2025. www.storipowys.org.uk/whats-on/pai...

Consciousness is control of control in the service of survival as measured by valence.
