I love the persistence of these Common Darters, still around despite it being nearly mid-October #dragonflies

The beautiful Greater Knapweed flower in the treepit of the new tree in our street has been poisoned by West Sussex CC, who continue to spray glyphosate on #Worthing pavements. 😢 #pavementplants #wildflowers #banurbanglyphosate @lgspace.bsky.social

Really enjoying #Ancient by Luke Barley. Beautifully written and fascinating. For anyone who loves trees (and that’s surely everyone?) 🌳🌳🌳 #booksky #naturewriting @wainwrightprize.bsky.social

Woolbeding Common looking beautiful in the October sunshine. Lots of fungi including some gorgeous fly agaric. #fungi #autumn #westsussex @sussexwildlife.bsky.social @nationaltrust.org.uk

Spot the chiffchaff! Three or four hopping about in the birch trees this morning, beautifully camouflaged against the yellow and green leaves. Lovely to see them back. @sussexwildlife.bsky.social #chiffchaffs #autumn

Still some butterflies about even though it’s October, now they have to dodge the spiderwebs! #butterflies

Bees on ivy flowers. Please don’t cut back ivy when it’s flowering - it’s great for late pollinators. @lgspace.bsky.social #letitgrow

Before and after photos. The first was taken a week ago of pavement plants with Clouded Yellow butterfly (not in anyone’s way) - the second taken today after the West Sussex Council glyphosate spraying machine had been around. The dead plants will not be removed. #banglyphosate #pavementplants

Good to watch the powerful #guardianlive event tonight, with @naomiaklein.bsky.social and @astra.bsky.social talking about End Times Fascism. Glad they mentioned the UK government’s disgraceful treatment of peaceful climate activists and those protesting about genocide.

I haven’t been out in my kayak for a while but the light was so beautiful and the water so calm yesterday I headed out for a paddle. Didn’t see the bluefin tuna that have been seen around but it was lovely being on the water. #kayaking

WSCC haven’t sprayed this brilliant bristly ox-tongue plant, (they’re doing a trial without using glyphosate and so far haven’t strimmed these down) which is making the clouded yellows and me very happy. 🙂 Saw four or five around. @sussexwildlife.bsky.social @savebutterflies.bsky.social

Researching for a novel can take you to wonderful places, such as this book, Life Between the Tides, by #AdamNicholson, with beautiful illustrations by Kate Boxer. An examination of the life of an anemone becomes a consideration of consciousness and what it means to be alive. #researching #booksky

I’m not much of a fruit and veg gardener, I prefer wildflowers, but am pleased with the 5 conference pears on my pot plant and the vine has had loads of grapes. The juice is delicious! #organicgardening

Beautiful walk along the #southwestcoastpath near Noss Mayo. The sea a stunning turquoise, the gorse and fields full of stonechats and wheatears. A peregrine falcon hunting overhead. Lucky to have this holiday as part of place research for my current novel. #southdevon

Emma Cameron @ecameron.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

Another walk on #southwestcoastpath in South Devon. The wonderful 1930’s Burgh Island Hotel, scene of at least one Agatha Christie adaptation. Surfers and sanderlings on Bantham Beach. Swallows over the cliffs. Beautiful September light.

Emma Cameron @ecameron.bsky.social · 08/09/2026

A lovely little flock of sanderlings finding plenty to eat on Bantham Beach in South Devon. It’s a dog free beach so they didn’t get chased off. #shorebirds @rspbengland.bsky.social #southdevon

Beautiful walk down through what looked liked the remnants of Atlantic rainforest by the River Erme. Found this exquisite mushroom, (no idea what kind) - sea rocket on the lovely Wonwell beach, the #southwestcoastpath was fringed with ivy in flower, ivy bees everywhere. #southdevon #fungi

I’ve read almost all @lizstrout.bsky.social novels and am very familiar with her characters, so it’s lovely to have some new ones in #TheThingsWeNeverSay Artie Dam is fascinating and the novel is both heartbreaking and uplifting. (And more directly political) #fiction #booksky #amreading

Two very large mushrooms growing in the garden! The larger the size of a hand. #fungifriday #autumn

Lovely September day, the sun is more gentle than it has been. 2 Common Darters and think this is some kind of Parasitoid Wasp in the garden. Also saw a large dragonfly investigating the pond, think it was an Emerald. #insects #dragonflies @britishdragonflies.bsky.social

Gorgeous day on #CissburyRing Great to have the clouds back again. A few wildflowers and butterflies still around and a green woodpecker flew up in front of me with a loud alarm call. @sussexwildlife.bsky.social @southdownsnp.bsky.social

Lovely to see a female Common Blue flitting about in the long grass. There’s lots of Common Darters visiting the pond too, after some beautiful rain. #gardeningforwildlife @sussexwildlife.bsky.social
