Messy-haired hedge-doctor & friend to the local Slow Worms.
Special subject: the history of wildlife & wild plants in medieval and early modern Britain and Ireland.
Looking to follow people who talk about nature, history, unions and the secret moonlight magic that opens the gates to faerie.

Wow! My 2021 article 'Darwin's Closet: The Queer Sides of The Descent of Man (1871),' published in the Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, has now been viewed over 45K times! 😲

' . . . but when it comes to the birds and the bees, maybe we didn't get the whole story.'
Super piece on ITV News yesterday prompted by the London Natural History Museum's fabulous new book A Little Gay Natural History by Josh Luke Davis. 🐵🏳️🌈🐧

📺 You wait a lifetime for a queer nature documentary and then two come along at once - typical! Hot on the heels of Queer Planet is Second Nature: Gender & Sexuality in the Animal World, narrated by the wonderful Elliot Page. It looks awesome! 🦒 🐬🏳️🌈🐠

This is my #linocut of Hildegard von Bingen (1098-1179), surrounded by plants & a mineral she touted as medical treatments, her invented alphabet & model of the universe. Her writings preserve not only her own knowledge & theories but the nature of institutional #medicine & folk healing of her day (which she deftly combined). While she might be best remembered today as a composer of 70 Gregorian chants & musical dramas… 🧵1/n
