This is insane. A species of Asteraceae (Heterosperma pinnatum) changes what kind of seeds it produces according to local growing conditions. If conditions are lousy, seeds with wind-dispersal structures are produced so the next generation can get the hell out of there.

A GASKET was originally a cord or rope used to hold a sail in place on a ship. Etymologically, it literally means a ‘little girl’—it derives from an old feminine diminutive form of the French ‘garçon’, meaning boy.

山道で見かけたカラスさん。 手摺りにとまっています。 じっと此方をみた後 少し首を傾げる様な仕草で 何か考えている様に見えます。 暫くすると崖下へ パタパタと飛び去って行きました。 フワッとした羽毛が綺麗です。 キリッとした穏やかな 表情が可愛いです。 #カラス 元気に暮らしてね(*^^*)

These are night lights! This lighting method is a testament to human ingenuity in utilising available resources. Olive oil was a popular choice for such purposes. It burned cleanly without producing much smoke or odour, making it an ideal choice for indoor lighting.

Yesterday, in a wet wood north of Hadrian's Wall (but still in Cumbria), there were beautiful Coniocarpon cinnabarinum mosaics on hazel; oodles of Thelotrema lepadinum on everything ; lovely leafy gates; folk staring at small things.

#speciesaday no. 218 is Ricasolia laetevirens (was Lobaria virens). WOW! I was not expecting this to trump Lobaria pulmonaria but it really did. A gorgeous, large leafy lichen that I was shown in the New Forest a couple of days ago. One patch was the size of a person.

An excellent week in the temperate rainforests of Cornwall monitoring the SW populations of Killarney Fern Trichomanes speciosum. They’re so much larger, broader and further creeping than the northern plants. Good amounts of regen from gametophyte too. #Wildflowerhour
