An amazing #WildFlowerHour to close what felt like a very springlike day! Lovely to see so many gorgeous flowers & their #sepals, that was a great @wildflower_hour challenge set by the fabulous @botany_beck! I wonder what she'll choose for the next challenge? See you next Sunday!

Absolutely wild! And unprecedented ⚡: When the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai volcano erupted in January 2022, it triggered 5,000 lightning events in the first 5 minutes. Within six hours that number climbed to 400,000! Nothing like it recorded before cnn.com/2023/01/08/wea…
