About a dozen long tailed tits flew into the combined crab apple and red robin tress in our garden, followed by about 4 blue tits. Something in those trees as been attracting wasps, which have been circling above them, maybe it's fermenting crab apples. #birdoftheday #bird #photography

The breakfast meeting about casting for the Tin Tin movie was going badly. Bob kept insisting that he should be the lead but he was entirely unsuitable. Eventually I was so fed up I dumped the whole dish of kedgeree on his head. He was capped in haddock. #yesBSitsajoke

Alan's #BirdOfTheDay, theme via Rob, is birds starting with any of the letters #JKLM. Red kite with a quizzical expression. #bird #redkite #photography

Rob @robcrank68.bsky.social takes care for Alan's turns of #BirdOfTheDay with the themes #BlueWater birds surround by blue water and #Perched bird perched on anything but not on branches. Here's a #perched picture from a very cold February day a few years ago. See also profile pic.

One for @greenleejw.bsky.social , the Eel House on the river Arle, or Alre if you prefer, near Alresford. Built around 1822 to catch mature eels.

Drama on my walk today. A devils coach horse beetle attacking a large yellow underwing moth. There was a struggle but I don't think the outcome was in doubt. #insects #photography #nature #moth #devilscoachhorse

I was thinking about visiting Watts Gallery and remembered that we were once served tea there in a MultiMap teapot. Long story short, I just bought a MultiMap teapot on Etsy. I wonder if I’ll be able to sell it to Microsoft for $50 million

My first time seeing long tailed tits in the garden. There were six of them in a red robin tree for a few minutes. #longtailedtits #birds #inmygarden #photography

I have discovered a pile of Nigel droppings under my bed tonight.

Hey @sniffpetrol.com, has Carcoat Damphands got into crypto? I suppose it was inevitable.

Spent years building up a big following on Twitter, essential for publicising my aviation blog, which I live from. Desperate to leave it & publicise on nicer platforms, but I have too few follows. If you want to help me escape, do give this a share. Much obliged. My blog here: hushkit.substack.com

So far this #worldcup I have only seen one car covered in England flags. Normally there are loads of them, so maybe people don’t want to be seen to be associated with those using the flag for racism and intimidation.

@motoringpodcast.com re. That Jag name. It may be a long reach, but their best known prewar model was the SS 100. So 001 could be a reversal of the numeric part and though the SS part might go down well with some of their target market, it's still unwise.

Robin fledgling busy today and it wants you to know it's HUNGRY! #robin #birdoftheday #photography

Fledging progress: blackbird and robin fledged, great tits still busy back and forth from the nesting box. #birds #photography #fledglings #robin #blackbird #greattit

I can't drive at the moment so I've teamed up with the local robins to get some Morgan enjoyment #morganmotorcompany #bird #robin #photography I think they have now run out of mealworms and are calling for more.
