Historical records indicate that this feast is not celebrated according to the Gregorian calendar. Maybe it is a lunar calendar thing.

Attached: 2 images I decided to give the "lawn" a trim now that #NoMowMay is coming to an end. 🙃 I'm not sure what to do about these Passiflora. It won't be long before they're meeting up with the strawberries coming in the opposite direction! #BloomScrolling #Gardening

Blimey. Mowing the lawn is hard work.

It's a good job #NoMowMay starts this afternoon. I'm really only doing it to chop down the hundreds of sycamore seedlings.

I've raked up a lot of moss which I'll leave for the #birds to line their nests.

Legt Euch mal bitte für die nächsten 12 Samstage eine Erinnerung in den Kalender. #garten #nomowmay

@Xsurfer #NoMowMay und wir lassen eine Hälfte pro Jahr immer stehen und ich mähe jeweils nir die andere.

Und die Rasenfläche wurde zugunsten eines Decks und vielen Beeten stark reduziert.

Ich bin ja ein großer Freund von Themen- und Aktionsmonaten. Den Rasen im #NoMowMay nicht mähen und so.

Jetzt haben wir #Movember, wobei auf Männergesundheit hingewiesen wird, in dem man(n) sich einen #Schnurrbart stehen lässt. Ich habe ernsthaft Zweifel, ob ich das bartwuchstechnisch hinbekäme. Ich probiere es trotzdem mal.

Wikipedia sagt: Alternativ können Teilnehmer auch 60 km gehen oder joggen (Move-mber).

We still have a lot of grasshoppers. This one is now food for a large #spider Seems to be a Wasp Spider.

I got this tiny slice of earth I call my own. I'll be damned if I am going to poison it. Getting to know what is growing in your yard can help you decide how to best manage your space without killing off the pollinators and volunteer flowers. #lawncare #nomowmay #natural #volunteer #flowers
Managed to take some #bee pictures that are a bit less blurry than usual. Was helped by the bees that seemed a bit lethargic. Maybe it's early in the morning for them or maybe they've had a lot of ragwort nectar and feel like a nap.
