Day 18 of #30DaysWild
#DriveByBotany of #PavementPlants
Met friend for tea & errands.
On the way home, I drive up a short stretch of suburban road with an abundance of pavement plants, some of which are native. I saw:Feverfew
Evening Primrose
(on the sunny side)Convolvulus
Field convolvulus *
Campanula poscharskyana
Hawkbit spp
(on the shady side)* Instead of roughly even radial stripes of pale pink & white, this was mostly a vivid sugar pink.

Day 1 of #30DaysWild
In a new home & a year on from my first #TKR, I'm keen to explore & share my findings.
Very close to home, here's a couple of plants for #pollinators : bolting parsley, soon to flower, and heavily nibbled raspberry. Left behind by previous tenant, so my gain :) -

Day 28 of #30DaysWild #Nature #UK
Today is 4 weeks and 3 days since I had a #TKR (total knee replacement).
I've rested to let my body heal, I've worked at my #physio exercises, gone to classes at the hospital, done my homework.
I know we are all part of nature, but today I really *felt* it, both emotionally & physically.
Today I experienced a little of how a bird might feel on fledging: I felt the wind on my face as I drove again 🥰
Just two streets, to visit a dear friend who supports me throughout, to beam and shriek and babble, "I did it! I flew!"
NB: If I could choose active travel, I would, but chronic conditions limit my mobility.

Day 25 of #30DaysWild #Nature #UK
It's 4 weeks today I had a #TKR (total knee replacement) and I'm amazed at my body's ability to heal & repair.
Back for another #physio session at the hospital: I silently greet the Scots pine trees every time.

Day 20 of #30DaysWild #Nature #UK
Another outing after #TKR (total knee replacement) for wound dressing.
I had time at the bus stop to enjoy the sunny day and trees in full leaf.
Certainly didn't expect to see cast herons as gate finials!

Day 18 of #30DaysWild #Nature #UK
Three weeks ago today, I had #TKR total knee replacement surgery.
Today I went to #physio at the hospital and even managed a tiny wild moment afterwards :)

Day 14 of #30DaysWild #Nature #UK
I focussed on my physio today, a vital element of recovery from #TKR (total knee replacement) as everyone delights in telling me.
Looking out of the window, seeking distraction, I noticed it was very much a day of sunshine and sharp showers, sometimes at once.
I know this weather quirk as 'a monkeys wedding', an expression I think I learned in South Africa. It's also called 'a foxes wedding' or 'a jackals wedding', mainly in India and Japan respectively.
Its proper name is 'sunshower' which is a bit obvious.
Bring on the celebrating animals!

Day 13 of #30DaysWild #Nature #UK
Second outing since returning from hospital after #TKR (total knee replacement).
Supported by the same friend, a trip by taxi back to hospital for my first #physio session.
I saw:
Many yellow wildflowers (too fast to ID)
Three young starlings
Four wood pigeons
The town formal garden, with a stylised maroon poppy in carpet bedding and informal nodding Field poppies. -
