  1. “Conservation isn’t just about animals. Protecting plants like shore dock is essential to restoring whole ecosystems.

    “We’re proud to support a project like Natur am Byth!, without which these plants would not be able to establish in the wild.”

  2. We spent our final evening at our favourite Indian restaurant at #FourCrosses on #YnysMón.

    Always a lovely welcome and great food.

  3. Happy Thursday.
    It's rather blustery across #YnysMôn today.

    We went to #Beaumaris past night for a meal, which was a nice treat.

    The castle was looking resplendent too.

    We are going to the #eternalshame of #SuePerkins at #VenueCymru in #Llandudno later on.

  8. We can't believe that we have already been living (albeit temporarily) up on #YnysMôn.

    One of the many benefits of being here is coming to experience the changing seasons and how these play out in nature and also at special places such as Bodnant.

    The true #legacy of the pioneering though questionale activities of plant hunters is that we now get to experience some fabulous plants in their prime.

    Bodnant is renowned for its camellias and #red #rhododendron species & hybrids that just glow.

  9. Free talk on the 19th of March at Oriel Môn gallery near Llangefni, Anglesey.

    Check on the website for instructions to claim your free ticket.

    We have our tickets.
    Not many available, so get your skates on.

    Dr Toby Driver is one the foremost experts in Iron Age hillforts.

  10. There is an ethereal ring around the (almost) full moon tonight. It is absolutely wonderful. 😊🌚

  11. Happy Sunday and the 11th day of Christmas to you all. 😊

    One of the many sheer delights of #YnysMôn is the joy of seeing badgers, if we are lucky.

    This, believe it or not is an 'action shot' of the lesser known sprinting badger... 😊

    I really hadn't realised that they can move so quickly.

  12. One of the joys of being on #YnysMôn is being able to visit our favourite places and notice some rarities.

    Take this diminutive daffodil. Looks rather cute and is probably one of the most valuable tiny plants.

    The proper name is Narcissus asturiensis 'Cedric Morris' and it was found (many years ago by said Mr Morris) growing on the side of the road somewhere in Spain.

    Seemingly hardy but it can be a little tricky to get to flower in some places.

    Flowers from November to February.

  13. My wife and I went on a cemetery ship graffiti hunt. Good job, as I somehow missed this spectacular example in southern Anglesey!

  14. Many and various mysterious objects have been found on #YnysMôn and this is one of the best.

    Discovered hidden in a wall not far from the village of Menai Bridge, this stone carved figurine was once venerated by a local family druidic tradition as a kind of genius loci or spirit of the place.

    The same tradition celebrated the 6th night of the new moon and would focus rituals around the statue.

    Sadly, the family died out, hence the decision to hide it in the garden wall.

    Now at Oriel Món.

  15. Farewell #YnysMôn.
    It has been so nice to spend a few days on our favourite island.

    ♥️

  16. Greetings from an incredibly windy #Caergybi.

    We are staying with friends tonight before spending the rest of the week on #YnysMôn.

    I have already made friends with an enormous brown and white horse called Celt. 😄

    We are looking forward to the time away from work, at least for a while.

    😊

  22. "the moment #YnysMôn and the whole of #Wales has been waiting for".

    No Eluned, the whole of Wales has not been waiting for this experimental shit to be dumped on our land, far far away from Westminster.

    And no, it won't create an "abundance" of Ynys Môn jobs. They'll primarily be shipped in from elsewhere. Believe it or not, there are not many experimental nuclear scientists there. Shocking I know.

  23. Finally got round to decanting photos from my big camera, so prepare for a flurry of bird photos.
    First up, a trio of herons from #Wales in spring

  29. Good evening, trogladytes. 😊
    We have come to the best place for pizza on #YnysMôn called The Panton Arms in #Pentraeth.

    We both had 'The Spicy One.
    I had extra 🍄 on mine and the @druid had extra 🫒 on his.

    Proper lush!

    I need a medically induced lie down now.
    😊

  30. The @druid and moi have been on a lovely evening drive across the top half of ##YnysMôn this evening.

    We stopped briefly at #CemaesBay to snap a quick photo as the sun had dipped below the horizon.

    We the headed up towards #MynyddMechell and #Llanddeusant.

    The landscapes are rugged and standing stones and other ancient monuments are aplenty, if you know where to look.
