Another wee one at Morton lochs this afternoon.

CONFUSED?

Middle of winter...unbelievable.

A Marbled White with a parasitic red mite attached to its thorax, which apparently doesn't do any harm to the butterfly!

A female Redstart in woodland beneath the Betws mountain, Amman valley.

I saw the first Redstart (male) on April 21st so it was lovely to visit my favourite Redstart spot yesterday and see one male plus at least two, possibly three females.

The male seemed disinterested in the females but the females were chasing each other about relentlessly! Is there a reason for this anyone?

Spent the afternoon up on the Mendips chasing bugs...

I was lucky enough to catch this handsome chap just as he was coming into contact with the water when returning to sea to hunt.

 

On the Isle of May last June.

As the light faded on the Scottish cliffs the last of the sun moved behind the beautiful beak and lit it up like a lantern..

Yesterday on my bike in Glen Feshie.

When the photographed tries to become the photographer...

Black Paws was an orphaned fox I helped feed and she has now moved to her own territory.

Turned out nice again. :@)

I took this photo of a Dotterel last September, they migrate from North Africa to their breeding grounds in the Scottish Highlands. One of their stop off points for 'refuelling' is the Black mountain in the Breacon Beacons. Springwatch presenter Iolo Williams actually recorded one of his TV shows about Dotterel on the very same mountain. Sadly I have not been able to see any Dotterel migrating this year during the Spring or on their return this Autumn. I hope it's not a sign of things to come and hope next year will be better.

I was beginning to think I wasn't going to make the ten-year run on the 'Watches'… When this popped up tonight. Needless to say, I'm well chuffed.

 

This tiny little fella was taken up on the Mendip hills.
