A month to celebrate the bio-diversity ( #30DaysWild) and diversity ( #PrideMonth https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt="">) that surrounds us and sustains us.

A time to look around, take notice and fill your world with colour, community and random acts of wildness and kindness

I am very grateful for our garden.

We share it with birds, bees, bats, bugs, badgers, squirrels, frogs, mice, shrews and the occasional mole.

Today’s visitor was this gorgeous little frog. They live in the cracks and crevices around our patio, pots and raised beds.

#30DaysWild
Today’s visitor is this lovely bee seeking nourishment from the salvia we planted at the start of lockdown.

Life is resilient. It renews, replenishes, adapts and thrives, as will we.

Today’s visitor. I went out trying to capture the damsel fly that was dancing around the oxeye daisies but found this hover fly lounging around instead.

“What would the world be once bereft of wet and wildness?

Let them be left. O let them be left, wildness and wet; long live the weeds and the wilderness yet”

- Gerard Manley Hopkins (inscribed into the walls of the Scottish Parliament)

It’s less wet but still wild today. Picking out the pinks and purples in the garden today. As are the bees https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🐝" title="Honigbiene" aria-label="Emoji: Honigbiene">

Self-seeding corner. The wheat, oats, rapeseed and canary seed uneaten by birds and squirrels grows into a haven for insects and nourishment for bees.

Today was rather glum and grey. Wind swept and rain sluiced but full of movement.

So today’s #30DaysWild random act of wildness was finding solace and stillness in watching the meadows dance.

Enjoying the sway of grasses against the sky ...
... and the jostle of eager daisies ...
... mindful of the frogs that may also be enjoying some meadow bathing ...
Today is a day of sunshine and showers, of tiny eyes and really long legs ...

Ventured out of my garden today. Wild!

Went down the greenway and around our local SANG. Hard to believe this used to be an army garrison. Now it uses sustainable urban design to provide habitats for people and wildlife.

Today for #30DaysWild a tour of the corners and creases in our garden that provide sanctuary for wildlife. A bug mansion from old bricks and tiles, a barrel pond with stone steps, a hibernarium topped with old pots and tree prunings and frog alley filled with soil and leaf litter

The blackberries are in full blossom and they smell amazing.

The emerging cornflower #30DaysWild
The edge lands are the seams in the landscape, not quite managed, not quite wild.

I love this spontaneous pond that squeezed itself into existence betwixt path and field and now provides a habitat for marginals and amphibians

An earlier city edition... (Edinburgh, Feb 2020)
In the dull light and patter of rain it is again the bright green tree leaves that catch the eye, slick and glistening with droplets and laden with flowers and fruits.

Fallen trees don’t die, they fill again with life, each one an intricate and vibrant ecosystem housing multitudes of tiny, tenacious organisms.

They also make pretty good forts, dens and hammocks ...
