Diving into Mastodon a bit like the chaffinch diving off this branch. Hi everyone, I'm John a hobbyist wildlife photographer based in Scotland. I currently upload all of my images to Flickr but I'm wanting somewhere else to share some of them too. Still not quite sure how Mastodon works but hope to view yours and share more of my wildlife and nature photographs.

@johnmwildlife Welcome to the fediverse. The hashtags are free. Some are spelled oddly. Examples are #LichenSubscribe, #Mosstodon, #Bloomscrolling
@Pollinators Thank you! Yes - I noticed some of the spellings. Looking forward to finding more. I'm also an avid gardener albeit in a very different zone - 9a I believe it is!
@johnmwildlife The gardening enthusiasts are part of the fediverse! We are gardening in zone 4b of Minnesota. They have hashtags too. #allotment, #growyourown, #foodforest, #permiculture. Also, I forgot to include #tinybalancingsheep.
@Pollinators That sounds great. I've got a lot of work to do in our front garden and built some raised beds in out back last year but for the rest of it, I want to let it be a more natural garden as it backs onto some woodland and we're blessed with lots of wildlife visiting (foxes and badgers). I did start a permaculture design course a while back but never got to finishing it due to other commitments. Excited to see your progress in 4b!
