@niaga_hijau Grew Cosmos from RHS seed this year, in pots, they’re nearly six feet tall and have flowered really well. Bees love them. Great image.

I've received an email from someone telling me that a school has stopped sending children home with books - neither 'real' books or 'reading scheme' books - but instead giving parents a login to access phonics lessons instead. @clpe1 @charliehacking

@jwood_t @Jipolay @LindaRo31062669 Yes, now I have looked at it properly, you’re right. Was thrown by the copper coloured body, and the effort taken to get back up. Thanks for taking time to post. Steve

@jptb2017 @Jipolay @LindaRo31062669 Hi, think that is a Minotaur beetle

Now I'm really too old to lay down on wet grass to take images, but given the time of year, thought this little chap, well worth the effort.. My wife first spotted him. It's late in the year to see a male Stag Beetle. Today. New Forest

Never understood why Wendy Cope hasn't been made Poet Laureate

@niaga_hijau Thermostat set at 16 degrees C, most surprised when the radiators were hot when I got up at 6 this am🥶

@jptb2017 @OxTweets @BanbWritersCafe 😅 That cold, huh 😳

@niaga_hijau Strange that Twitter has decided to blank the image for potential graphic content. Lovely image. We have several in the garden. Predominantly ground feeders.

Lovely #bird with a sweet song The Beautiful Brown-Eyed #Dunnock.. Also known as Hedge-Warbler/Hedge-Sparrow Described by #JohnClare as.. "The tame Hedge-Sparrow in its russet dress. Is half a robin for its gentle ways." #nature #wildlife #birdphotography #naturelovers .. ❄️🤎🕊

@SteveCaple4 Interesting image, had a quick look at the history of the shop in the background. Abel & Sons had a long history, before it closed in the early 1970’s. Located at 9, The Parade.

Believed to be Crimean War survivors, Market Square Northampton. (no date)

@Constantine_A1 It’s looks very much like a Mint Moth
