I sometimes despair that the camera can never really capture just how amazing the natural world can be. But sometimes, just sometimes, the winter light hits those reeds and all those reflections pop... #birds #birdphotography #birding #photooftheday #photography #NatureIsAmazing

Lots of bike rides on Saturday in remembrance of Alex Pretti, gunned down by ICE in Minneapolis. If can't attend then maybe join in on Zwift? Look for the "We Ride in Unity" Zwift Club or follow link to ride. @zwiftrides.bsky.social @zwiftinsider.com please share! www.zwift.com/events/view/...

Went to my local library this morning to do a bit of research for my current book project and my goodness such a life-affirming space! There was an adult being taught to read on the next table, children enjoying story time, countless people taking out books. So grateful for our libraries ❤️

Quickly telling someone you’ve liked something they’ve done (e.g. telling a writer you like their writing, or a researcher you like their research, or a teacher you like their teaching) has a phenomenally high effort-to-impact ratio.

Why TF would you ‘give Reform a go’?
Yes. They represent change. But not good change. Not the change people want.
This lot would torch everything we value and rely upon (NHS, public services, our rights, protections…)
in an absolute frenzy of corruption, prejudice and uselessness.
FFS. Please don’t.
