There is something magical about the bog at dusk as night falls. I love how the sky and trees are reflected in the bog pools as I walk through the wet woodland ❤️ @claireissimo.bsky.social @peatlandecr.bsky.social @tocharstories.bsky.social

Solstice Blessings ❤️
The longest night of the year, inviting stillness, reflection and deep connection with the earth.
From this moment on, the light slowly returns.
Furze is in bloom, like flickering flames in the dusk, lighting the way @peatlandecr.bsky.social @communitywetlands.bsky.social

I noticed that this moss covered tree trunk of a Sycamore tree on Mill Island, Birr was covered in these teeny tiny little parasols. This one was high up, and lit by the sun @claireissimo.bsky.social @charleenhurtubise.bsky.social @tocharstories.bsky.social

Autumn colours are just spectacular right now. I visited Knockbarron wood as the light was fading to dusk.
So still and serene, the beauty within took my breath away.
