One of my first good finds from the 2022 fungi hunting season - magnificent Bitter Beech Boletes on the Blaise Castle Estate, 6th September #FungiFriday
Been busy today prepping for my Open Studio this weekend @somersethour #somersethour, would be lovely to see you - please call in for a browse and a cuppa!
Otter swimming - March in my 2023 calendar - I still have a few available jcurtisart.com/photo_17115393…
Common Kestrel overlooking the car park at Greylake this morning
When around Blaise Woods I always visit a huge fallen Beech which is smothered in Hairy Curtain Crust and several kinds of jelly fungi. Last time I was there I spotted these bracket fungi growing on skyward-pointing branch above head height. Can anyone ID them? #fungi
A couple of Eygptian Geese made a couple of low circuits of #ChardRes @somersetbirds this morning before disappearing to the West.
The only sound in Holford combe this morning is the gushing of water and the crunching of footsteps on dry leaves @quantockhills Hardly a peep from the birds who are too busy seeking food to sing. #winteriscoming @WoodlandTrust @Natures_Voice @SomersetWT
Terana caerulea - Cobalt Crust looking good in the sun today in a Stoke Gifford (Bristol / South Glos) shrub bed
Sadly too late to submit for the Countryfile calendar... An action shot of one of the Shags from Clevedon Marine Lake this morning. Amusingly, last night over dinner, I had a chat with a couple of ex-work colleagues about swimming in the Marine Lake.😀
Merlin, this morning, near work. I see them often during the Winter Months but not usually like this. Wow!
Red Squirrel South West wants to reintroduce the native species between Ilfracombe and Minehead. bbc.in/3VtRHgD
This Red Kite spent several minutes dropping down below roof height checking out gardens at home, including ours. Presumably hunting for any scraps it might find.
Not much to report today, just a couple of nice, dung-loving Petticoat Mottlegills found in a horse paddock near the Blaise Estate #fungi
Whooper Swan is still showing well at Catcott Lows. @AvalonMarshes. @SomersetWT.
As a precursor to our peat restoration works kicking off in the new year, we’ve had archaeologists out on site at Shapwick Heath to check for any ancient trackways.

Today, this excellent, introspective and poignant piece came out on @opendemocracyru. It describes, much better than I ever could, what it feels like inside Russia's anti-war movement, the fundamental ethical and moral questions, the sense of loss etc. opendemocracy.net/en/odr/russia-…
I've been frustrated, depressed and alarmed at this "what's wrong with Russians for not rising up" debate, which I find dishonest, venal and dangerous. Since it's not going away, I took a stab at it. With lots of personal stories from Russia and beyond.⬇️ discomfortzone.substack.com/p/un-russian-r…
In #Russia, hundreds of book titles are removed from bookstores due to restrictive laws on "LGBTQ+ propaganda ban" and "information on special military operation". Bookstores do this to avoid large fines or closure: #censorship themoscowtimes.com/2023/01/09/cho…

How do you tell a new story about a nation? For 20 years, I've been trying to do so for Russia. Starting with the provinces of central Russia, then Siberia and the Russian North, I found little-known forerunners who saw that a different Russia was possible. @LukeDCoffey 1/6

@irgarner A lot will depend on western resolve and continued support. Giving 🇺🇦 enough to stop 🇷🇺 victory isn't same as Russia losing, which is only way this evil ends. Putin I guess will do everything to try and divide, threaten and hope for loss of western political will.
I hope Ukraine's army continues to perform well in 2023, but I fear that Russia isn't done yet and may strike back. No chickens should be counted.

Thank you for the conversation, connection &friendship I have found on this site in recent years. Not at all sure the platform is moving in a promising direction, but very grateful for everything that I have learned from you all until now. Happy new year!
If it isn’t already being done, I think it long past time for Ukraine’s partners to pull out all the stops to help it improve and accelerate its own long-range drone/missile programmes. If the US is wary then UK, Poland & other willing European allies should work together on it.
Russia is indiscriminately shelling Kherson, which it claims to be a Russian city. Thus, Russia is obliged to follow its nuclear doctrine, admit it to be an attack against Russia, and nuke Kremlin.
