Local spiders have kindly tethered the budding daffodils so they won't blow away.
Beside the millstream at Staple Fitzpaine, Taunton Deane in Somerset.
A candelabra of exquisite beauty, with a strange story behind the name, involving an angel who throws a spear at the devil in Paradise Lost. Also known as Grassnut, the bulbs were eaten by Native Americans.
Owlet Wood, Lincolnshire. Sometimes you don't have to work too hard with a composition, nature serves it up. The chance of this little leaf with a hole being caught on this twig, and then being frozen overnight, including the little drip at the bottom of the stem? Limited it seems, but glad I was there to record it.
The first day in Newfoundland included a stop at Cape Spear, the easternmost point in North America. I would have liked to have revisited this and other locations for some evening star shots, but the late sunset and long lasting twilight hours didn't allow for it throughout the week.
With this scene and others to come, and easier said than done in terms of dodging bad weather, Newfoundland has so much to offer the landscape photographer.
Thanks for looking!

Common thistle, found in fields, on verges and on wasteground.
Also in my garden..!
Flowers are visited by bees for pollen and nectar, and many other nectar-feeding insects, notably butterflies (especially skippers and browns). Birds ( especially Goldfinch take seeds. It is also an important food for caterpillars of the Painted Lady and moths.
Slioch is an imposing mountain which rises above Loch Maree to a height of 3,218 feet. It's name derives from the Gaelic "sleagh" meaning 'The Spear'.
They both look a little surprised to me ..... too bad for the fish.
Press Z a couple times for the best look
Cape Spear, NL. A typical scene with many tourists who visit to watch the sunrise in the most easterly point in Canada.
Spear fisherman returns with catch from coast off Boca de Yumuri, Cuba. Food is short in Cuba and traditional fishing is still a necessary way of life.
I'm currently watching Primal S2 and wanted to do these guys.
There are 2 stickers, the white one was cut from a corner of a sticker sheet and the leg one is from 76898 Speed Champions. Teal bricks and medium azure stickers are almost the same color. The only thing I would change is the bow tie piece from both sides, with teal scuba minfig gear or headphones, both coming in the Monkie Kid sets.

As a wildflower, there are few that can surpass thistles in their value for bees and pollinators. So, if you want to photograph bees and other pollinators, find a patch of thistles growing on a grassy verge or brownfield site. On a sunny day, you will surely have plenty of opportunities.
When people think of thistles, usually the spear thistle springs to mind first, with its large, spiky purple flower heads. It's a common species, and when in flower, you're sure to see bees, hover flies, various beetles and butterflies or moths feeding on them.
