I noticed these on my year-old pile of conifer chippings today - Morchella elata?

Took delivery of 2 rescue hedgehogs this evening. Born too late to hibernate but now a chunky pair that I hope will enjoy the habitat here. I bet they never use the house after tonight!

As the moth season ramped up a gear this week, my mugs from @moffstuff.bsky.social arrived. The Marsh Carpet one was an obvious choice for me, but I couldn't resist the Emperor one so had to get both

After yesterday's flooding and trail closures at RSPB Strumpshaw Fen, the water levels have dropped and both Fen Hide and Tower Hide have re-opened. Still a bit muddy.

Common Quaker to MV tonight - that mild spell must have confused it, though I had one 8 December last year too

I wasn't expecting a fresh Pebble Hook-tip last night but this has been a strange year for late records

Lovely autumnal colour to the beech hedge at the bottom of the garden, with brambles and honeysuckle coming over from the land beyond
