This is a Copiapoa cinerea that was grafted onto a cactus rootstock. It's nearly 3" in diameter but likely took only 3 or 4 years to reach this size. If grown on their own roots, it might take around 10 years (and be 5x the price) 🌵

A medium size Copiapoa cinerea with many pronounced vertical ridges. It has distinctive black spines and dense yellowish wool on the crown.

🌍🌏 Grey heron (Ardea cinerea) The Grey Heron is a large, tall wading bird with ashy-grey plumage, a white head featuring a black stripe and crest, and a long, sharp orange bill. It's widely distributed across Europe, Asia, and Africa, often found by shallow water like rivers, lakes, and marshes. The Grey Heron's behaviour is characteristic: it often stands motionless on long legs, patiently ambushing fish, amphibians, or small mammals with a lightning-fast strike. It flies slowly with its neck retracted in an S-shape and nests communally in "heronries," usually high in trees. 2.5 Flash (Edited) Conservation status: Least Concern (IUCN 3.1) Fun fact: If a heron catches a mammal like a rat or vole, it's been observed sometimes dipping the prey in water first to help soften it up before swallowing it whole and head-first. 📷: Photo by dragh via Pixabay https://pixabay.com/photos/heron-grey-heron-lilypads-pond-9029702/ DGYK

Valuable research:
One of the bacillus studied (bacillus subtilus) is incorporated in my Fancy Dirt (Pro-Mix Bx), and,
fungicide-resistant Botrytis cinerea (grey mold, crown & root rot) is such a threat to growers that PA & MD started tracking fungicide resistance 2 years ago (it's not pretty)🌱🪴

Returning from a short walk to see some fantastic beaver activity, I was drawn to a strip of woodland.
My reward came in the shape of #fungi
Two new to me species, Favolaschia claudopus aka orange pore fungus and a solitary Typhula fistulosa known as a Pipe Club.

I’m so envious of North Americans who have so many more heron species than we do in the UK, but heres a beautiful Grey Heron (Ardea Cinerea) in soft morning light.

For those that had trouble spotting the bird, here's a cropped image showing a Grey Wagtail (Motacilla cinerea) rather more clearly.
#Birds #UKWildlife #UrbanBirding
Just to the right and slightly above centre is a small bird facing away from the camera. The overall impression is light grey, though its flanks and the base of its tail are yellow. To its right is some low growing green vegetation, while the rest of the background shows very shallow water with lots of dead Willow leaves.

🇧🇷Matracão
🌎Batara cinerea
Conservação:Pouco Preocupante

O matracão é uma ave passeriforme da família Thamnophilidae. Também conhecido como borralhara, brugaiara, matraca e vira-folhas.

📷 Daniel Grandjean
Um pássaro de porte médio repousa sobre um galho. Sua cabeça exibe um marrom avermelhado discreto, enquanto o restante do corpo apresenta tons de marrom e bege. As asas são adornadas com listras pretas e douradas. A cauda, longa e marcante, exibe um padrão quadriculado em tons de preto e laranja vibrante. O bico é cinza-azulado e as patas, finas e acinzentadas, agarram o galho com firmeza. O ambiente ao redor revela uma vegetação exuberante, com folhas verdes e raízes entrelaçadas.

'Gespiegelt' #FotoVorschlag
Das Bild zeigt einen Graureiher (Ardea cinerea), der in seichtem, grünlich schimmerndem Wasser steht. ​Vordergrund/Zentralmotiv: Der Graureiher steht prominent in der linken Bildhälfte. Er hat ein schlankes, graublaues Gefieder und einen langen, dünnen Hals, den er elegant aufrecht hält. Sein dunkler Schnabel ist gerade nach vorne gerichtet. ​Spiegelung: Die helle Wasseroberfläche, die durch sanfte Wellen leicht bewegt ist, erzeugt eine klare und langgezogene Spiegelung des Vogels. Das Wasser selbst hat einen olivgrünen bis gelblich-braunen Ton, der von der Vegetation und dem Licht der Umgebung herrührt. ​Hintergrundmotiv: Rechts im Hintergrund ist ein kleinerer Wasservogel zu sehen, der im Wasser schwimmt. Aufgrund seiner dunklen Färbung und des leuchtend roten Schilds an der Stirn handelt es sich wahrscheinlich um ein Teichhuhn (Gallinula chloropus) oder ein ähnliches Rallen-Gewächs. ​Licht und Kontrast: Das Licht scheint von oben zu kommen und wirft klare Schatten. Der Rand des Bildes ist leicht abgedunkelt (Vignettierung), was den Blick auf die zentralen Vögel lenkt und eine stimmungsvolle Atmosphäre erzeugt.

Guten Morgen Bluesky

Hier geht's lang ins Wochenende.

Wünsche euch allen einen wunderschönen und friedlichen Freitag 🕊💚🫶🏻
Dieses vertikale Farbfoto zeigt einen Graureiher (Ardea cinerea) an der Grenze zwischen einem grünen Ufer und einem Gewässer. ​Der Vogel: Der Reiher steht aufrecht und ist leicht nach links gewandt, mit dem langen Hals gestreckt. Er hat ein überwiegend graues Gefieder am Rücken und an den Flügeln, einen weißlichen Hals und Kopf, und eine markante schwarze Zeichnung, die sich von den Augen nach hinten zieht und einen kleinen Schopf bildet. Seine Beine sind lang und hell. Er blickt aufmerksam nach links, wahrscheinlich auf der Jagd nach Beute im Wasser. ​Die Umgebung: Das Ufer im oberen Teil des Bildes ist mit dichtem, hohem, sattgrünem Schilf und Gras bewachsen. Die Vegetation ist leicht feucht und in Herbstfarben angedeutet (manche Grashalme sind bräunlich). ​Das Wasser und die Reflexion: Der untere Teil des Bildes zeigt die dunkle, leicht bräunliche Wasseroberfläche, die das Ufer und den Vogel spiegelt. Die Reflexion des Graureihers ist sehr klar und bildet ein fast spiegelbildliches Abbild des Vogels, was dem Bild Tiefe verleiht. Im Wasser schwimmen einige Blätter und Pflanzenreste, darunter ein auffälliges kleines orangefarbenes Blatt im rechten unteren Quadranten. ​Die Beleuchtung wirkt natürlich und leicht diffus. Die Szene vermittelt den Eindruck eines ruhigen Moments in einem natürlichen Feuchtbiotop oder am Rand eines Teichs.
