CONFUSED?

Mr. and Mrs. Robin are nest building already!

Middle of winter...unbelievable.

 

I'll keep you posted.

Our new local celebrity is this wonderful young male otter.

 

Although I still have many photos of Ollie to post I suspect Scar will dominate my photo feed for sometime.

 

I have named him scar as he has an open wound on his neck and an older injury on his flank.

 

Although the neck wound looks nasty it doesn't seem to be impeding him unduly. While we watched him he caught numerous fish so he is certainly capable of hunting.

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?

In Dundee botanic gardens this afternoon.

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