Extraordinary story, although Lazarus Species is a bit of a misnomer as Lazarus was supposed to have been properly dead but these little chaps have just been keeping their heads down. And who can blame them for that?

Reminds me of Swift’s Modest Proposal.
I had the same reaction when I learnt that there had been a Pope Adrian.
Wonderful. The sound always reminds me of the Anglo-Saxon riddle. I love to think that the poet had stood and listened to the exact same music of the swans' wings that we can hear today.
Resist!
Fascinating research, and a delightful illustration.
Black and white cat lying on her left side on a grey wooden floor in a patch of sunlight. She is stretching out a paw to the camera.
A good start to #Caturday - Sophie luxuriating in the sun this morning!

Honestly, the amount of water pouring out of the hills at the moment - it's all got to go somewhere!
Waves from Malvern 👋
Badum - tish.
Groan.
Two Gauls carrying three wild boars. A small dog runs after them
This week, I've been trying to decide whether some Surprisingly Large Bones from a Bronze Age pit were from wild or domestic pigs and, after opening the question for discussion, I reckon I have an answer.
Perfect day.
😂
Love the alt text.
I've never planted horseradish - I have enough trouble with mint escaping from its bucket.
Report of a sand Martin at Tice’s Meadow in Surrey today. A good sign of approaching spring.

Chinchilla in a zoo. Small rodent with very dense silver grey fur
El Salvadoran son-in-law has gently explained that I've been pronouncing chinchilla wrong my whole life and I'm wondering how I never realised. The softer 'll' sound suits it better, I think.
Reminds me of the time when ancient hedges were being ripped out and replanted with whips. So depressing, and so stupid.
The tiny Ramshorn Bagworm moth Luffia lapidella caterpillar in its case on a lichen covered gravestone, Alphington Church Exeter, Devon today.
Running for our rivers.
John Mildmay-White is running 600km over 10 days to raise funds for Wild About The Erme.
The funds will enable their scientifically-qualified all-volunteer team to undertake the testing needed to identify the types, and potentially the sources, of pollution of the R Erme.
A youth kneeling on a roman mosaic. He's using a tiny brush to carefully sweep this immense floor while he quietly regrets his life choices.
Want to help keep our mosaics looking spick and span?
We're looking for a (very) part time mosaic cleaner.
Flexible hours and.... and we wouldn't joke about this.... YOU GET TO STAND IN THE HYPOCAUST!!! 🤩

Interesting feature which includes a history of the prison at Princetown, Dartmoor, though I know that the cheesy chips at Fox Tor Cafe are the main draw for local mountain bikers.

Love it. I quietly think this too, especially if it's raining or they look like they're at the couch to 5k stage.
That's one positive, definitely. It was an interesting time to be young and angry and a bit lost. At least there seemed to be plenty of other people who felt the same!
There were much better bands at the time, whose writing came from very real anger and frustration. The pistols never really seemed genuine to me, especially Lydon. Not surprised he ended up supporting the far-right.
A list of genuinely lovely things. Have a look - I guarantee it'll improve your day.
Thank you! Because sometimes, the willpower needed to make that decision is far harder than the run itself.
He won't be joining them, apparently. Which is just as well because he's probably one of the least punk people I can think of.
Treating people like lab rats - horrific.
