Another numerically abysmal night, but of the three #moth visitors, at least one was a first sighting in 2026 for me.

LUNAR MARBLED BROWN
Drymonia ruficornis

Note the moon-shaped crescents on its wings, from where it gets its name. Common in southern UK.

Squirrels love to bury their peanuts and churn up my seedlings. After a mass of pruning I had some small branches to use.

Dilophosaurus gets cracking on painting that fence.

#DailyDilophosaurus #Dilophosaurus #Fence #Garden #Dinosaurs
Alright folks, the #garden #sauna project has started. First time using these „Schraubfundamente“ (screw-in foundations?). Surprisingly easy to put in, at least when using a one meter long M20 threaded bar as leverage 😁 Those things are essentially just a 80cm long and roughly 6cm wide screw with an M12 thread on the top to mount the floor joists to. I still have to cut back the rhododendron bushes a bit though to fit it all in. Also I have not yet leveled the tops of the foundation, as I‘m still figuring stuff out.
