It’s #NationalMushroomDay 🍄 Why do fly agaric mushrooms cause hallucinations, and what does it have to do with reindeer urine? This graphic takes a closer look! #ChemSky 🧪

🍄🌊 Lovely little sand dune mushrooms. Dune brittlestem (Psathyrella ammophila) spotted at Crimdon beach. 🌱 This fungi feeds on the decaying roots of marram grass.

29 September is Michaelmas, the feast of St. Michael and All Angels. St. Michael, traditionally the celestial warrior who leads the fight against evil, is patron saint of soldiers, paratroopers and police officers. The Michaelmas daisy, or aster, is his dedicated flower.
Collage of Michaelmas daisies in shades of soft lilac-blue. A small copper butterfly rests with open wings on one flower, while a meadow brown feeds on another. Other images show clusters of the daisy-like flowers, with yellow centres, blooming in the late-summer garden.

For the #wildflowerhour #favouriteplant challenge 2026, I'm probably going to choose this lovely patch of Coralroot #Orchids (Corallorhiza trifida) from the dunes of South Cumbria. They were absolutely magnificent 🥰

Experiencing the carpets of wild garlic on Ashford Hangers at dawn was undoubtedly a #FavouritePlant moment from this #WildFlowerHour year

Some York Groundsel Senecio eboracensis plants appear to have weathered the drought above ground, & are now in full flower. Good plants currently opposite York Station, convenient for the travelling botanist #wildflowerhour A #FavouritePlant of mine, having been involved in its de-extinction

My #FavouriteFinds of this year for #Wildflowerhour were Marsh Helleborine which was a new orchid tick for me, and then refinds in familiar and personally important places, Globeflower and the beautiful Radnor Lily 💕 @bsbibotany.bsky.social @wildflowerhour.bsky.social
