Purple Hyse - enjoying the switch away from the cold and loved spotting this beauty amongst some Hyacinth’s at #cannizaropark #sharemondays2025 #fsprintmondays @sarahlonges.bsky.social #brimstonebutterfly

As I was driving away from #ElmleyNatureReserve last week after a beautiful day this guy just flew down and perched beside the road, stunning #sharemondays2025 #fsprintmonday @sarahlonges.bsky.social #ShortEaredOwl

Into the Pink - we had a couple of amazing sunsets in London last week, this was the first, as seen in #barnes #sharemondays2025 #fsprintmonday @sarahlonges.bsky.social #rowing #bullsheadbarnes #bullsheadjazz

Just spent the week with my good friend #TammyMarlar on her #PelicanWorkshop in Greece and wow, what a delight. I’ve not been to see these lovely #birds before but would highly recommend it, really exhilarating #sharemondays2025 #fsprintmonday #Pelicans @sarahlonges.bsky.social

London looked glorious first thing yesterday but it’s been down hill since - hold onto your hat’s as another storms in! #batterseapowerstation #nineelms (or should that read nine towers!?) #sharemondays2025 #fsprintmonday @sarahlonges.bsky.social #londonrealty

This is all I got (besides the lovely beardies of course) so very envious of you seeing the owls @sarahlonges.bsky.social #elmleynnr

When there's a lack of snow (none in London since Dec 2022), you're left with a frost and we've been lucky the last week to have some heavy ones - #richmondpark @theroyalparks.bsky.social #richmondparkphotography #wildaboutrichmondandkew #trees

yes, can look amazing in May

We also have Acid Grassland on Barnes Common Sophie and we treasure it @barnescommon.bsky.social one of its featured plants is #sheepsorrel seen best in late spring when it turns parts of the common red interspersed with little yellow flowers, like dandelions #catsears

Thanks 4the fol @liamblizard.co.uk made a brief visit 2your lovely island 4the first time last summer. The weather 4June was a touch disappointing (lots of cloud &rain) but looking across from the night before was a bit special &the distillery was what attracted my son, who’d invited me #isleofarran

Thanks for sharing your lovely picture of the #forthbridge this week @scottjessimanphoto.bsky.social I got to see it myself for the first time last year, courtesy of an invitation from my daughter to join her for a visit to #Scotland at Easter - it didn’t disappoint - thanks again #visitscotland

Wow, what a week of weather it’s been, even down in London. Having taken loads of pictures, I think this is 1 of my favourites; slim pickings 4this pair of #Kestrels who will hopefully have a better week #sharemondays2025 @sarahlonges.bsky.social #richmondparkphotography @theroyalparks.bsky.social

Happy New Year #sharemondays2025 people - ticked off another first for me last week and saw some fabulous #beardedtits at #ElmleyNNR what lovely creatures they are with a sweet little cry #fsprintmonday @sarahlonges.bsky.social so pleased I went, despite the cold @rspb.bsky.social
