I just realized that today is Arbor Day! 🌲
I’m one of those Arbor Day diehards who thinks that trees are pretty cool and Arbor Day should still be a thing. Plant a tree! Happy Arbor Day! 😁

The Goosander (red-headed) at Widewater seemed to be battling with weed, much to the amusement of a Herring Gull who decided to join in the game! @sussexwildlife.bsky.social #Lancing #Shoreham #birds
