Late.
But not too late!
You know what it is too late for?
The 400 + year old oak felled in London recently.
400 + years of living, giving and vitality.
Fucked in a moment.
On a whim.
This matters.
It hurts us all.

Basic bee facts every day at 3pm.

Bumblebee nests are notoriously difficult to find in the #wild.
This can hinder population surveys of #bumblebee species as nest density is used as an indicator of populations.

This tree was planted 31 years ago as a 3-foot bareroot sapling. My son and I used to play catch beside it. Later, I would throw pop flies over the tree. Now, there's no room for playing catch...

Edit: Corrected date of old photo. It was the year 2000. My son -- 10 years old -- had asked the barber for an NBA haircut (probably a fade, but he got a bowl cut).

Our magnolia is just showing off this year! Already had people stopping outside to take pictures of and with it (my fav being the elderly couple taking turns to pose in front of it with their Jack Russell, and then giggling together and waving when they saw me watching through the window).

This is something that most people would walk past without a glance. Even mild magnification brings this scene to life, a thing as remarkable in its way as the Grand Canyon.

The extraordinary colours and textures are of a twig on an old Field Maple tree (Acer campestre). On old trees, these cork growths develop, like extended wings.
