This thorny little plant is called Gangban Gui. 🌿 As kids, we used to eat its young leaves — sour, but strangely nostalgic. Have you tasted it before? #WildPlants #RuralMemories #Foraging #NatureNotes

As we continue to honor the memory and legacy of Rudy Mancke, beloved host of #NatureScene and #NatureNotes, SCETV & SC Public Radio colleagues share fond memories and recollections in this one-hour live special, "Remembering Rudy," Wednesday, December 6 at 8:00 p.m. on SCETV.

Rowing through a symphony of sky and clouds, listening to the music of nature 🚣🏼‍♂️ #MelodicJourney #LakeSerenity #NatureNotes

Light doesn’t arrive loudly. It filters, hesitates, learns the shape of leaves— and only then touches us. Somewhere between shadow and sky, the day pauses, as if asking permission to be felt. 🌿 #FilteredLight #ThroughTheLeaves #NatureNotes #Stillness #GreenWhispers

The moon doesn’t fight the dark. It just appears—quiet, steady, whole. Even half-hidden by leaves, its light reminds us: clarity doesn’t need noise to exist. 🌕🌿 #Moonlight #QuietNights #Stillness #NatureDiary #LookingUp #NightSky #NatureNotes

I was lucky enough to see three Devil’s Fingers fungi (or Octopus Stinkhorn) on the site of the old RAF base at Holmsley in the New Forest today. Their smell is something between rotting flesh and an antiques dealer the morning after van-sleeping at Kempton Park. #NatureNotes

My cartoon Saturday @TheTimes. Definitely not part of a healthy diet….NatureNotes on a slippery sub species.

🎶🐸 On lily pads and ivory keys, A toad in tails plays tunes with ease. With nature's notes and rhythm bright, He plays all day and sings all night. A playful leap, a jazzy cheer — Music makes the wild draw near! 🎩🎼✨ #WhimsicalArt #NatureNotes #FrogSymphony

A wild chickweed on Mount Siguniang: 💚 green at the heart 🌸 five petals split to look like ten 🌄 proof that even the tiniest flowers burn bright in the high mountains. #WildFlower #MountainLife #NatureNotes

To my recollection, only my second time ever to see a Common Field Grasshopper (Chorthippus brunneus) in our garden, this time walking up the living room window, Finglas West Dublin. @BioDataCentre @Irishwildlife #Naturenotes
