It's my partner's kidney transplant anniversary, he's had a donor kidney for 11 years. Thinking of, and grateful to the unknown donor, their family and friends.

Not enough sugar there for the average American, bread not sugary enough to be technically cake and not preservative drenched to ensure it lasts a month or so.

You’ve been seeing very large #bumblebees on the wing for the past while. Why? Okay I’ll tell you why in this quick thread if you promise to #repost as the more people who know that these are queens the more likely that someone will help some out meaning more colonies next year. Deal? 1/15 #bees

In other insect news from my garden, the Large White butterflies (I think) have found my nasturtiums! Usually they find them a lot earlier but the plants have been poor this year with the drought/heatwaves. #butterflyphotography #caterpillar #ukgardening #insects

A large white butterfly caterpillar with a yellow and black spotted body and a yellow stripe from head to tail end eating the edge of a nasturtium leaf with other leaves and spent red nasturtium flowers out of focus in the background.

A pearly-winged Box Tree Moth... in my moth catching box! This flew into my kitchen, had to go online to look it up as it wasn't in any of my UK books. It's an invasive species from Asia, first recorded in 2007 in Kent (I'm in Yorkshire). Very pretty but unwelcome to box growers. #moths #mothphotos

A close-up photo of a box tree moth temporarily caught in a plastic box. Its wings are white semi-translucent, pearly and iridescent with a dark coffee-brown thick border around the front and outer edges. The body is long and the same brown colour with thin pearly bands and the antennae held backwards over the body. It is resting with two right legs extended to the front and side of the box.

Taken the same day as my earlier dahlia photo in equally poor conditions, but this taller one is a beautiful deep burgundy red colour. The variety is Arabian Night. I must try and get a better lit shot. #dahlias #flowerphotography #ukgardening #bloomscrolling

A photograph of my dahlia flower, the variety is Arabian Night. The background is a brick wall, dark brown wooden fencing and distant red flowers to the left, pale blue to the right with the mid green leaves of the dahlia close to the flower. The flower itself is a deep A magenta-burgundy red with layered and semi-rolled pointed petals. Above it and to the left is a closed purple bud with greenish-yellow streaks from the same plant.

Poor lighting but I'm stunned by and so in love with the huge blousy flower on my Café au Lait dahlia this year. #dahlias #flowerphotography #ukgardening #bloomscrolling

A photo of my Café au Lait dahlia with a dark brown wooden fence and green leaves as the backdrop. The dahlia flower itself is at least 7 inches across and has many layered pointed end petals earning it the name of a fluffy dinnerplate flower, it looks a creamy beige colour but on closer inspection there are also hints of peach and blush pink.

Dear government, don’t send startling, high-pitched alerts about wildfires to ordinary people's phones. Send them to the CEOs of fossil fuel companies and make them impossible to switch off until they stop the destructive plunder that's contributing to climate change.

The partial eclipse of the sun filtered through the leaves of our hazel tree onto a brown garden storage box, there are many crescent images of the sun massed together and some individual crescent in a fiery yellow orange colour against the brown doors of the box.

It will be all of those things if Binface wins, you never know in this crazy world! It is literally him vs Farage as all the other parties have chosen to ignore the whole thing. I always vote in local and general elections and if this was my area then I'd be in camp Binface for sure.

I had a similar thing, a brat was jumping on the benches in the vets. Mother unconcerned, receptionist saying there were sick animals he was scaring... didn't care. Promptly fell off the bench directly on top of my dog, luckily didn't hurt her, equally lucky she was so placid. Gentle hugs to Stevie.
