Lovely little goldcrest popped out of some ivy in the backgarden this afternoon while I was watching a rather noisy group of ~30 goldfinches.

I don't think I will ever tire of seeing #Kingfisher. So lucky to have them on my local patch, and always a privilege when they allow me a few minutes in their company.

In a difficult week I have been very glad to get out for early morning birding walks. There are elements of mindfulness in this for me - the tonic of #vitaminN.
Catching up getting a few photos of the camera. Here's a cute chiffchaff seen yesterday

Thunder, lightning and heavy rain has put me off my usual morning walk. Reviewing some photos from yesterday for vicarious #vitaminN
Here are a couple of finches from yesterday morning.

Wildflowers today were off the hook. Mostly Balsamorhiza sagittata (arrowhead balsamroot) but also loads of lupines and Lomatiums (at least three different species) β€” and poison oak.

The Green Room Gardeners are back in action!

Today saw the first proper therapeutic gardening session since the pandemic. GRG is a project of the wonderful BrightSparks Arts in Mental Health. We'll be meeting once a week, turning a disused allotment plot into a little bit of paradise. Wildscapes Coop supports the group by facilitating the gardening. None of it would be possible without grants from Growing Communities and Castle Ward and the Friends of Queens Road Allotments letting us use part of the community space.
