'December' from Eliot Hodgkin's 'The Months', 1950. The first Christmas roses, seasonal greenery, a dainty indoor cyclamen, a shop-bought anemone, a clementine from Spain and two shy early violets, with their promise of spring.

When the fairies tire of dancing each night, they slip off their tiny shoes and hide them beneath white dead-nettle blooms. But beware, should a centipede find them there, it will steal them away and wear them out, dancing until dawn! 🧚🐛 #FolkloreSunday #wildflowers
Collage of White Dead-nettle (Lamium album) flowers showing close-up views of the soft white, hooded blooms and green nettle-like leaves. The dark-edged, yellow-tipped stamens inside each flower resemble tiny shoes hidden beneath the petals.

The hard truth is that the world has failed to ensure global warming remains below 1.5°C. We need a paradigm shift to limit a temporary overshoot’s magnitude & duration & quickly drive it down. #COP30

“It’s ok to feel delicate sometimes. Real beauty is in the fragility of your petals. A rose that never wilts isn’t a rose at all.” - Crystal Woods. #FlowerWisdom #FlowersOnFriday

In some traditions, November’s #FullMoon is the Mourning Moon, and marks a time of reflection and release. Often the last full moon before the #WinterSolstice, it invites us to grieve what is lost, honour what has been & clear space for renewal in the year ahead. #WednesdayWisdom

Today is #WorldRiverDay. What better way to celebrate it than with these beavers, the contributing architects of beautiful and abundant river systems. Painted in Canterbury, where beavers live on the Stour flowing through the city, for Canterbury District Biodiversity Network

“Long summer days are my desire: Red suns, that drop as globes of fire Behind the sloped fields white with weed: Warm winds, that waft the wandering seed With silvery plume, now low, now higher… “ - from ‘Long Summer Days’ by Helen Gray Cone (1859-1934). #poetry #summer

In olden times children in East Yorkshire were warned against pilfering ‘goosegog’ berries for fear they may be snatched away by Awd Goggie, a fearsome sprite who steadfastly guarded the fruit of the orchards, including that of the gooseberry bush, as it ripened. #FolkloreSunday
