As well as fungi & galls (see previous post), here is a video of a calming small waterfall in The Dripping Well in Hastings Country Park. Water cascades over golden saxifrage, mushroom-headed liverwort and the very rare oceanic Dumortier's liverwort of which half the country's specimens are found only here. Stream flows through a fern glen out into the sea, 200m behind me.

Next: Canada’s most recent territory: Nunavut 🇨🇦 The territorial symbols the rock ptarmigan and purple saxifrage flowers cover the hand-carved map of #Nunavut in my #linocut. The block was inked ‘à la poupée’ (with different colours, lavendar, beige, black and red, in different areas) and printed by hand on lovely Japanese kozo (or mulberry) paper.

Floating #spiders and insect-eating plants: leaky dams revive #Dorset’s bogs https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2024/feb/21/floating-spiders-and-insect-eating-plants-leaky-dams-revive-dorsets-bogs

"Bales made out of #heather and bunds constructed out of peaty #soil and timber are being used to create porous dams on two #mires... they encourage the water to seep away slowly and 'rewet' the dried-out mires... it will create a wetter habitat, where #mosses and rare #plants like marsh #saxifrage and tiny bog #orchids can thrive."

A little saxifrage living its best life. If you look closely you can see the sticky hairs on its stem as well as the cute red and yellow polkadots on the petals
