- Happy February! Welcome to most underrated and fastest improving month. You start in the depths of winter and end waking up in the light to the sound of birds singing, to the sight of snowdrops, daffodils and early blossom in the trees #BigFebruary
- A quick reminder of what #BigFebruary is about… Thanks to the magic of the cosmos, we start gaining daylight much faster in Feb than in Jan. Over 20 mins a week - setting us up for Spring. This chart is by @neilrkaye.bsky.social and is one of my all time favourites.
- February is the BEST in terms of how the days get longer as a proportion of the actual length of day.We gain more minutes per day in March, but the days are longer then anyway so who cares... (Sorry for the terrible graph)

- Thank you! I wondered about this ages ago but only got round to actually working it out this morning... I knew there would be data to support Big February 😁
