I love when they share a food bowl, Amelia (closest fluffy butt) was so food aggressive when her sisters first came home, now she is so good with them all.
Sorry about the terrible picture it was dark!

Warrenpoint Big Wood became a winter canvas this morning. The ice crystals formed a fragile, ethereal lacework on the bare branches contrasting with the evergreen conifers, the remaining beech tree leaves & golden larches. #intimatelandscape #ireland #photography #landscape #naturenotes #landscape
An image full of different types of trees in a wood. The bare branches from the silver birch have a hue of purple while there are pockets of autumnal colour from the remaining orange leaves on the beech trees, the green conical conifers and yellow larch. All covered in a layer of frost to show off the intricate patterns and shapes of the tree branches.

There’s nothing quite like the sound of water falling and the colors of fall. 🍁💧 This spot caught my eye with its swirling leaves and glowing light—moments like these make every hike worth it. Happy #WaterfallWednesday!

'Eye Of The Storm'

I put myself in a precarious position to make this one as it was high tide, and under a storm of howling wind. I’ll share the behind the scenes video later today. The set up was interesting!

Word of the day is ‘hibernacle’ (18th century): a hibernating animal’s winter retreat.

I believe it works on a human level too.

These male & female memento mori figurines were used for spiritual contemplation in the 19th century. They reminded the owner of the transience of life and material luxury. They are now part of the Wellcome Collection in London.

Personally, I think they'd make great wedding cake toppers!
Two figurines: one male, one female. The male one wears a top hat and waist coat. Half of him is clothed, the other half exposes his skeleton and decomposing flesh. The female figurine is in a period dress from the 19th century with a red shawl. Half of her body also shows her skeleton and decomposing body underneath.

Two tiny twinning translucent mushrooms grow on opposite sides of a decaying stick that I laid down on a bed of moss 🤍👻 🍄📷 🟢 🌱🌿 📷 📸🎞
Two white and slightly transparent mushrooms grow upwards off of opposing sides of a decaying stick. They're about 2 inches tall and have a slightly rough surface. Some extremely tiny water droplets have collected around the base and on the caps of the mushrooms.

Not to mention, there are non-contraceptive benefits of the pill (I myself am one of these users). This is utterly ridiculous.

‘The two policy positions are linked: restriction of access to abortion and restriction of access to trans healthcare both emerge from conservative ideological positions about gender roles and the degree to which an individual is entitled to autonomy over their body.’

The people who have been funding “gender critical” transphobia are now campaigning to ban contraception for women.

A photo of a Glanville fritillary butterfly with open wings, sitting on a marguerite between many others. The scene is photographed in the soft early morning light. The top of the butterfly is directed to the camera. The other marguerites are out of focus and more or lessed blurred.

The holiday season is upon us, so it's time to start sharing weird AF Victorian Christmas cards!

First up... whatever this is 😂

There's a whiff of Star Wars to this one!
A card depicting an angry polar bear holding a person in his grasp. There are icebergs in the background and at the top, it reads: "A Happy Christmas."
