Time for dinner for Rico 😍 #DogsOfMastodon #DogsOfFediverse @TeLoDescribot

Good morning! It's very cold and sparkly. And there are no new baby goats. But the 5 baby goats so far are SO CUTE and very healthy. #BabyGoatCountdown

A view across to Merrivale granite quarry (operating 1874-1997) fronted by its huge spoil tips. Below are a few houses and the Dartmoor Inn. The hamlet is situated at the crossing of the River Walkham on the former main road from Ashburton to Tavistock. On the horizon are Great Staple Tor and Middle Staple Tor.

I made my first #facejug in 2019. I made a few at the time, left it for a while and now I’m returning to the idea. I have no training in sculpture so I feel like a beginner all over again when I make these. One thing that gives me courage to attempt them is that original face jugs from the US South are raw, folky and imperfect. But I’m also drawing inspiration from the Ife terracotta heads from #Nigeria which are incredibly skillful and naturalistic. Mine fall somewhere in between. #pottery

The stories we tell matter. I know this not from watching but from memory. I was just a child, held behind barbed wire in a U.S. internment camp, when an atomic bomb obliterated Hiroshima—killing members of my family. That horror etched itself into my life and forged my belief in the urgency of disarmament. I’ve heard this horror reflected over and over again in the stories of other hibakusha—survivors of these unimaginable attacks.

A pair of mating Six-Spot Burnet Moth (Zygaena filipendulae) with a cocoon also on the same stem...

A tiny froglet was crossing the woodland path at Hickling Broad today...
