Came across these boxing hares on the Yorkshire Wolds but unfortunately my lens was not long enough!

Juvenile great tit having to sit it out in the rain - what a welcome to the world

At Morton lochs yesterday when I was out cycling.

Four babies from nest appeared in our garden, not sharp but was curious.

They were looking good in Meigle in Perthshire this afternoon.

The second of my head to head of red deer portraits.

This young man was the lord of a small herd of about ten deer. Unlike the more mature brute down the glen this young man was very attentive and affectionate to his companions.

It's always a pleasure to see these beautiful wild animals in their natural environment.

I was watching the voting results for the UK national bird and could hardly believe my eyes when I THOUGHT I saw my name on the wren in at number 4. Needless to say it went so fleetingly that I had to check on i Player. Lo and behold it WAS my pic that they'd used. Fame at last

One more day to go, then normal service will resume. In the meantime I'll be milking this for all I can... LOL :@D

Nest building in the cliffs

Ants - they're amazing creatures! They will tend small flocks of aphids, seeking the sugar-rich honeydew the aphids produce as they suck sap from the plant. In turn, the ants protect the aphids from predators, such as ladybirds and lacewings, and recent studies have shown them also protecting the aphids from fungal outbreaks that cause death by removing bodies of infected aphids. Ain't nature awesome?
