A bumblebee can only fly for about 40 mins between feeding. These amazing pollinating insects are being hit hard by widespread habitat loss. So each nectar-rich flower you plant in a windowbox or in your garden or community green spaces could be the pit stop that saves a bee 🐝

In the current game state, Andy was playing for fifth. Now Andy goes into final 6 with Genevieve, Rachel and Sam all supposedly “bigger threats” plus a huge resume point.
Maybe this backfires and he’s voted out but this gives him a shot to actually win. #survivor

Feels really early to say this when we have no idea how it will impact the game going forward?
Andy correctly identified his position in the final 7 (5th) as well as the jury's perception of him, took advantage of a rare opportunity to flip the game, came up with a plan and executed his lie subtly and perfectly. And gave it a fun name!
Probably the single best move of the new era. #survivor

Finally got to watch the probabilities scene on #survivor.
Andy did a very simple and reasonable analysis to claim it’s “remote” Kyle would win the next four challenges (6.25%).
The assumptions can be argued, but why it got so much pushback is fascinating and a case study in math communication.

A thousand mushrooms crowd to a keyhole,
This is the one star in their firmament...
Finding mushrooms is like discovering a mysterious treasure! No idea what any of them are though. Maybe I need to get an id book

A basket full of Ivy umbels and a tumble of fallen leaves, savings for a rainy day - moments enjoying their loveliness, well spent today. Hoping you’ve spent the weekend keeping out of Storm Bert’s way too! He really is feeling stroppy! #VitaminN #RainyDay #StormBert #NatureTreasure
