Happy Bank Holiday!

These are a few of the blue tit babies that frequented my garden throughout July. When I returned from my recent holiday the garden felt so empty; the heat waves and drought had meant out pond had dried up and all of our regular visitors had stopped popping round. As weather has got cooler and we have had some rain, they are slowly coming back. They bring so much joy and make me realise that you don't know what you've got until it's gone.

Have you had a similar experience?

It's a Fruity Friday, so why not celebrate some hedgerow gems :)

Elderberries can be used to make jams, wine or immune-supporting syrups for colds and flu, but they must always be cooked first because raw berries are mildly toxic.

But that's not the only thing to be wary about when picking these fruits. Folklore says the Elder Mother spirit lives inside the tree 🧙. Foragers have to ask permission or offer gifts before taking any part of the tree or risk bad luck. On the other hand Paganist traditions believed that the Elder Tree could protect and heal.

Most importantly, these pretty beads are a favorite food source for many bird species, providing essential nutrients, hydration, and energy for migration; so I think I'll leave them all for the birds :)

We are in for a treat tomorrow morning!!

The lunar eclipse is a rarity as it only happens during a full moon when the Sun, Earth, and Moon line up in a straight line. It may cause the full Moon to take on an eerie reddish glow. Adding to the spectacle, its position in the sky will be low on the horizon, causing a phenomenon known as the Moon illusion. This makes the Moon appear bigger and more dramatic than usual.

In the UK there will be a partial lunar eclipse on the morning of Friday, August 28, 2026. The partial phase begins at 3:33 am BST, reaches a maximum of 93% coverage at 5:12 am BST, and concludes as the Moon sets.

Wellbeing Wednesday: Jelly in the Sand

On an evening walk, soaking up the sandy moisture underfoot, I looked down to find the characters joining me on my stroll. On a rock-pool’s periphery, lay the soft remains of a common moon jellyfish. This soft, gelatinous button against the coarseness of the sand is a testament the versatility of earths landscapes and creatures!

Do you like the feeling of sand underfoot?

Seagull Saturday…or is it?

While I we often refer to these busy folk as seagulls, they’re also known as the European Herring Gull. While many of these gulls migrate across Europe to hotter climates, much of the species has taken up permanent residence within Britain and Ireland. Couldn’t have anything to do with the fish and chips could it?
