@gavreilly @VirginMediaNews Is it rural Local (L-roads) or regional roads (R-roads) too? I can understand L roads going down to 60 as these are often country lanes where the max speed Id reach is 60 km anyway. However, there are many regional roads that are safely able to handle 80 km/h

I think it is time for me to move away from X. I do not like how the app is going, and my feed is now dominated by far-right topics, and just full of hatred. It is no longer the botany/ecology network that I initially joined for. Follow me in Bluesky:

Managed to squeeze in a New Year Plant Hunt 2025 by torch light. Hopefully I'm not too late! Got 14 species, happy with that considering the darkness! @BSBIbotany @wildflower_hour @BSBI_Ireland. Rathcooney, Co. Cork while visiting family. #NYPH #NewYearPlantHunt

@astrid_biddle @OshDuffy @MaireadCrawf @BSBI_Ireland @BSBIbotany While I didn't get the time (and probably won't) to do an official NYPH yet, I'm still observing less species to be flowering than expected, especially compared to what I found this time last year

Polystichum aculeatum (Hard Shield Fern) outside Moycullen, Co. Galway. My first time seeing it, so open to correction. Otherwise a new monad record in west Galway (VCH16). @BSBI_Ireland @BSBIbotany

Some bryophyting to satisfy the mind in Winter. Calliergonella cuspidata (Pointed Spear-moss) really showing off the characteristic spear-like points, formed by the upper leaves being tightly rolled. Galway City @BBSbryology @NimbosaEcology @uniofgalwayBPS

Glendalough, Co. Wicklow. Wet weather, but still a very enjoyable place to visit. Not much botanising this time, but plenty of Gorse (Ulex europaeus) and plenty of ferns to admire along the way, with the beautiful scenery! Nice way to celebrate my MSc viva!
