I've made an 8 minute film covering my visit to Cornwall last year. It's taken me a while as I thought it would be valuable to have Cornish language subtitles on the film. Available to watch for free on my website: thepansyproject.com

Dearest #BirdLovers, it's very sad to hear of the demise of some of our seabirds as reported by the @rspb.bsky.social on the news this morning. It reminded me of this. I have a lot of affection for this puffin drawing and early gentle reference. More here… birdscanflystore.com/gentlereferences/

This long wattled umbrellabird, relevant today as we live through a period of constant rain. I echoed the plumage on the head of this bird by wrapping a bowl in black fabric and carefully balancing it on my head... As one does... #BirdsCanFly - More here: birdscanflystore.com/gentlerefere...

So glad I went and sat with these pictures by @paulharfleet.bsky.social at Open Eye Gallery in Liverpool. Each pansy has been planted at the site of a homophobic attack.

A gallery wall with around 30 pictures of pansies in urban environments. An open booklet lies on a bench in the foreground.
