Celebrating Islandness

We Are 10 !!

Hello.

Sorry we’ve been away. Things have been tough and there have had to be a lot of changes for a lot of people but here we are,  on this our tenth birthday, ready for the new world of credit-free economics!

And what a day to celebrate! Bon Poisson d’Avril a Tout le Monde!

Spring is sprung and there’s much to do and you’ll be hearing a lot more from us now we’ve steadied the ship.

Just to get things going here’s some marvellous Toothwort from the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust Reserve at Eaglehead Copse. This extraordinary spring flower has no chlorophyll and taps instead into tree roots for what it needs ( a lot like the broomrapes that featured on the blog last year). HIWT do a tremendous job managing this beautiful woodland and it is ablaze with spring flowers just now.
