Under the pines, near the murmuring brook,
I know the wild orchids grow,
Fair and pure in their shady nook,
A page in God's own wonderful book
With a message for me to know.
So breathtakingly beautiful so adorned ,
Captured upon a stem scent shared adored .

Saving flora and fauna is essential for maintaining a healthy and balanced ecosystem. Here are some ways we can contribute to this cause:
Protect natural habitats: Natural habitats such as forests, wetlands, and grasslands are crucial for the survival of many species. We need to protect these habitats by preventing deforestation, preserving wetlands, and restoring degraded lands.
Reduce pollution: Pollution is a significant threat to flora and fauna. We can reduce pollution by using eco-friendly products, reducing the use of plastic, and properly disposing of waste.
Conserve water: Water is essential for the survival of plants and animals. We can conserve water by fixing leaky faucets, using water-efficient appliances, and reducing water usage.
Support sustainable agriculture: Agriculture practices such as monoculture and excessive use of pesticides can harm the environment. We can support sustainable agriculture by buying locally grown produce and supporting farmers who use sustainable practices.
Reduce carbon footprint: Climate change is a significant threat to flora and fauna. We can reduce our carbon footprint by using public transport, walking or cycling instead of driving, and reducing energy consumption at home.
Educate others: Educating others about the importance of flora and fauna conservation is crucial. We can raise awareness by sharing information on social media, volunteering at conservation organizations, and supporting conservation initiatives.

An interesting house in Ibstone, looks like it was built of wood, or were the tree trunks attached to the brickwork. Either Way it is eco friendly as the black will absorb heat, keeping heating bills in the winter low, bur then will it also be unbearably hot in the summer?

Day 3/365
Macro Monday - Cotton
These are face scrubbies that I crocheted. They are an eco friendly alternative to cotton pads for makeup removal. We are doing our best to avoid anything single use. HMM
365 weekly theme - Introduction:
I am a maker of various things. Mostly handmade greetings cards so expect to see some of those in my 365. I used to teach card making and scrapbooking to adults but now it's just a hobby.
I finally succumbed to joining the 365 today (my fourth). I managed a photo each day for three days and have set up a flat lay for tomorrow...piece of cake huh? ;)
Reasons for joining:
1. Eric www.flickr.com/photos/54515311@N00/ said I was crazy enough to do it.
2. On New Year's Day my osteopath posted on Instagram "Do something that scares you" Well, committing to a 365 is pretty scary!
3. I am hoping it will help with the return of my mojo
4. At least it's not a 366
5. I just want to do it

Every step, every heartbeat, every mindful breath—on Earth Day 2025, it all mattered just a little more. This glowing emblem, awarded to Apple Watch users who completed a workout on April 22nd, celebrates more than just movement. The sleek gold lines form the numbers "2025," wrapping around a radiant Earth at the center—a subtle reminder that our health and the planet’s health are deeply connected.
This badge isn’t just a digital trophy—it’s a symbol of action. A quiet high five from the Earth herself, saying thank you for moving with purpose, for showing up, for choosing to be part of something bigger.

This Ferruginous Pygmy Owl (Glaucidium brasilianum phalaenoides) is one of a pair that has been roosting in a bamboo patch a short distance from my house. Unfortunately there was a bush fire close to their patch and since then they seemed to have taken up residence elsewhere.
A rhythmic study of the BikeMi fleet—the public bicycle sharing system launched by the Municipality of Milan in 2008 to reduce traffic and CO₂ emissions. These vibrant orange bikes, positioned near the Piazza del Duomo, represent the modern "Architecture of Form" in urban mobility. Against the backdrop of the city’s historic center, the repetitive geometry of the rental stations mirrors the organized chaos of a city that seamlessly blends heritage with sustainabil

The species was then rediscovered in 1974, but is mainly confined to the Main Ridge in Tobago...source www.biodiversity.gov.tt/home/protected-areas-and-species/...
