Small but seriously tough, the snow bunting is built for extremes 💪 But not even this plucky passerine can survive an Arctic winter 🥶 They swap their white plumage for sandy-coloured beachwear, looking right at home on a winter getaway to our coasts! 👙 Simon Hastings 📸

A sausage ground beetle! 🪲 It's named for the marks on its wing cases - like strings of little sausages 🌭 Its thin head and mouthparts are perfectly adapted to butcher snails from inside their shells, pulling out the remains for a tasty meal. Escarg-ew! 🐌🗼 Ben Moore 📸

Our volunteer, Valerie, has outdone herself with this display at Holme to help visitors decode some classic Norfolk phrases 🗣️ If you’re a ‘furriner’, pop by and see if you recognise any! Have we missed any of your favourite sayings? 🤔👇

Channeling my inner snowdrop when bracing the outdoors today 🥶 Dainty flowers 🫷 Lean, mean, ice-busting machines 🙂‍↕️ Their leaves have hardened tips that help them push through frozen ground, & antifreeze proteins that stop ice crystals forming & causing damage 💪

If you look really closely, you might see some turkeytail fungus on this tree… 😅 A colourful fungus, it was once popular as a table decoration; at one time, it was even used to decorate hats! 🎩 Rachael Wayland 📸

Moths without wings?! 🪽 This Pale Brindled Beauty was spotted on an oak tree at UEA, and like many other active female winter moths, she is completely wingless 😮 Males fly from January to March, searching for the females which have climbed up tree-trunks 🌳 Ben Moore 📸
