The Irish government has called out Israel for war crimes...

Palestine state representatives have called on EU countries to follow this precedent, condemn Israel, stop genocide & bring about peace.

From seed to flower, to fruit

Nature's fragrances are in the air again, and its wonderful. Life reminds us of the beauty of things

Remembering the unseen work of the worms below ground, magicians making the soil ready for its alchemy and the bees who pollinate the flower.

The Kingfisher of Dublin's Dodder River, or Larry as we call him. Photos by Conor Ryan.

In Portuguese, these beautiful birds are called Guarda-rios, which translates as River Guardians. We wonder how better our human communities can act as Guardians of our rivers..

An important #Samhain for us, we finally made our way up to the beautiful and crystal clear waters of Gerês, Northern Portugal.

Found this lovely spot and swam... Perfect way to find the balance and prepare for the next chapter.
