Late afternoon in September. The big dahlia 'Nicholas' is a very late bloomer and needs lots of feeding too. #SixonSaturday #Mygarden 🌱

Almost tame heron at Kew. Bold urban wildlife. Stood close by for ages, admiring the sculpture?

A tree, dead from heat and drought in 2022, at Kew Gardens. Painted red as a symbol of climate change.

Henry Moore sculptures at Kew Gardens. Something mediative about the curvaceous shapes in a green landscape.

Heptacodium is very popular with bees, and this ant. A beautiful little tree. #Gardenshour #Mygarden

My nerine (just the one). I've been pruning shrubs which suffered in the drought. Hopefully more air and space will aid their recovery. #Gardenshour #mygarden

Glaciologist @matthias-huss.bsky.social shows that the centre of the Great Aletsch glacier in Switzerland (the biggest in the Alps) lost 6 meters(!) of thickness just this summer. "No words...", he adds on LinkedIn.

The bubbling waterbowl by night. Makes a lovely calming sound. It has a light in it and there are solar lights too. #Gardenshour #Mygarden

My pebble puddle pool. It's shallow. The birds use it to drink and bathe and it's full of life. #Gardenshour #Mygarden

Today Charlie Cat was due his annual vaccinations at the vets. After a week in the armchair he's outdoors somewhere and missed his appointment! He can read the calendar! Clever boy!

Could this be a Saltmarsh Knot-horn? Nowhere near a saltmarsh here in south Berkshire, but we do have extremely sandy soil and the goosefoot/fat-hen food plants it likes. #Teammoth

Hummingbird Hawk Macroglossum stellatarum eclosing from pupa found in North Wales (slightly speeded up). Thousands more will be emerging in Britain during the next few weeks, then the moths will migrate down to the Mediterranean where they overwinter.

We are so fortunate that the geometry of our solar system is aligned to give us the wonderful spectacle of the #eclipse. Although it wasn't a total eclipse in the UK, it was fantastic to see so many people out watching!
