Blooming Whiteway

The free plant stand has had a spruce up - seedlings & small plants to share - it'll be stocked up this Sat at 9am & topped up through the day. Bring something to swap if you’d like... looking forward to seeing you! Location: Haycombe Drive just before turning to Blagdon Park

In July we submitted a proposal to @bathnes to create an inspiring art & nature park at the Entry Hill Golf Course site, with @forestimaginatn. We'd like to develop ideas collaboratively with the community so please share your thoughts with us: support@forestofimagination.org.uk

We're launching our new Wessex Water Foundation to continue our work to support communities across our region ✨ The foundation will provide three different funding streams - one of which is currently helping those affected by Covid-19. Find out more at wessexwater.co.uk/foundation

Swifts spend most of their lives on the wing, they even sleep in the air & only land to nest. Sadly with the #EcologicalEmergency there has been a 96% decline in swifts & swallows in our region. Find out how you can help them recover: ow.ly/bDl630qUrmN #SwiftAwarenessWeek

Claire and I (Jude) had a lovely meeting with the @growbatheaston group last night - in a wonderful outdoor setting with swifts swooping overhead! Locals in #batheaston you need to check them out for all things growing, community & sustainability growbatheaston.co.uk

We’re reviving our garden and v soon are going to be looking for new #volunteers to join our group!

@growbatheaston Twas a pleasure to meet you all in such a beautiful setting... and we can’t wait to see what’s next! Thanks so much for the free plants too 😊

Sheffield has a new living wall designed by @NigelDunnett and @Jo_Peel on @YArtspace It’s looking good! 💚

#BugIllustrationOfTheDay: Woundwort Shieldbug. I have been very pleased to find these beautiful bugs in our garden in central Bath! I am aiming to illustrate as many UK beetles & bugs as possible. Suggestions welcome! ⁦@Simon_Robson69⁩ ⁦@shotbert⁩ #pentatomisae

Can anyone help identify these beetles? Is the one on the right a female thick legged flower beetle?.. I am uncertain as it isn’t as large or shiny as the male thick legged flower beetles I have seen .

I have spotted all these beetles on my #lockdownwalk across the hills around Bath in the last 2 weeks. Have you sighted any other bugs or beetles which I could illustrate? ⁦@Bathscape⁩ ⁦@WeLoveBath⁩ ⁦@BathLifeMag⁩ ⁦@avonwt⁩ #bughunt #bioblitz #sciart

@edarcherthinks love this - thanks so much for posting - would love to see more if you spot any.

To whomever is chalking names and descriptions of trees on the pavements across Walthamstow. I love you. This made my heart sing today.

Fellow gardeners 🌱💚 Some much needed greenness and inspiration in all this fuzzy uncertainty at the moment!
