One of the UK’s most beautiful mushrooms to my mind, the Wrinkled Peach (Rhodotus palmatus) is much less rare than one might think. I’ve found it in at least 3 different locations. As appetising as it looks, and despite its name, this one is in fact not considered an edible - bitter and rubbery.

What a difference a week makes! We are now under a snowy blanket here in Nova Scotia.
Had a nice walk with the puppy and got to enjoy a beautiful nearly winter sunset at one of my favourite places.

An Aurora Framed
I planned for this shot to have a nice wee shape, with dark skies across the top. The trouble with Aurora though, they don't listen! So much bigger and more intense than expected!

Like all of our orchid tours, from day one of Mariposa's inception, our flagship #OrchidsOfRhodes tour generates a donation to help support @bsbibotany.bsky.social's invaluable conservation work. It's important to us, and we know it's important to our guests too.

Postcard from the field from our roving tour leader Michele Viganò.
Miki remains in the Western Sahara, where he's seeing masses of superb wildlife - birds, reptiles, inverts, and mammals too, including this gorgeous Algerian Hedgehog.

Behold this spectacular trio of merging galaxies, known as SDSSCGB 10189.
These galaxies are in the process of colliding and will eventually form one of the largest galaxies in the known universe!
