And if that’s piqued your interest, it probably won’t surprise you in the least to learn that I’ve written a book about animal migration, which contains a whole lot more about migrating birds and other beasts. It’s out in April and you can pre-order it here. www.biggreenbookshop.com/signed-copie...

The cover for Wayfarers: The Incredible Story of Animal Migration, by Lev Parikian. It’s predominantly blue, with swirling patterns representing migratory paths, and migrating animals interspersed across the design – terns, a whale, butterflies, dragonflies, penguins, bats, a wildebeest and an arctic fox.

Today is World Migratory Bird Day. Please say hello to the Pfeilstorch (‘arrow stork’). In 1822 this bird was shot in the German village of Klütz. It already had a 30-inch arrow in its neck. The arrow was made of African wood, and this bird played a pivotal role in our understanding of migration.

A stuffed stork – white with a black arse and red legs and bill. It has a long arrow through its neck.

Monet’s heavy use of white was groundbreaking—but dangerous. His “snowy peaks” were painted with lead, a toxic metal. Today, conservationists handle Monet’s works with caution.

It's #buyastrangerabook day and here's an offer from @sarahalba.bsky.social Sarah is offering to buy someone a copy of Needfire by MK Hardy Check out the description and get in touch if you'd like a copy. UK only

Norah seeks a fresh start in the halls of Corrain House. What she finds are dark secrets that will haunt her every step. You are afraid of the border places.

You are afraid of the fork in the road. Fleeing her mistakes in Glasgow for a marriage of convenience, Norah Mackenzie's new home on an estate far in the north of Scotland is a chance for freedom, a fresh start. But in the dim corridors of Corrain House, something is very wrong.

Despite their warm correspondence, her distant, melancholic husband does not seem to know her. She is plagued by ghost ships on the sea, spectres at the corner of her eye, by winding, grasping roots. Her only possible companion, the housekeeper Agnes Gunn, is by turns unnerving and alluring, and harbours uncanny secrets of her own.

As the foundations crumble beneath her feet, Norah must uncover the truth about Corrain House, her husband, Agnes, and herself, if she is to find the freedom she has been chasing.

Monet described his interest in water and reflection as “an obsession.” In 1908, he wrote: “I hope something will come of all this effort.” His Water Lilies series would go on to become a core icon of the Impressionist movement.
