Another attempt to build here which we are fighting again to save the few last remaining dark spaces and quiet green habitat for our little friends and all flora and fauna under so much threat now. Please see our website River Crane Sanctuary for more information and if you can help us do get in contact.
Thank you

The Springwatch team invited me up to Ynys Hir for a couple of days to have a look around behind the scenes, meet the crew, etc. I had a great time there. I went for a wander around the reserve on the first afternoon, but didn't get very far at all before finding this perched in a tree. I believe it's the first time the RSPB warden had heard of one there, although it's thought it was just taking a rest on its way to somewhere else. It is a target species for the reserve though, so hopefully more will be seen there in the future. I've seen Nightjar many times at night, but this was the first time I'd been lucky enough to find one in daylight, and been able to enjoy it without being marauded by midges!
I expect the iPlayer link to the episode I was on will expire eventually, but they've now added the film itself to the clips page too.
There's going to be a lot of these....

So here is my Snipe photograph being used as the backdrop to tonight's Springwatch, and also you can see the same photo on the cue cards in Michaela's hand (though with a slight purplish colour cast).
This pretty butterfly is pretty much only found on the south coast of the Isle of Wight in the UK. I was pleased to see over 20+ individuals today.

Lesser celandine (Ficaria verna / Ranunculus ficaria), A low-growing, hairless perennial plant, with fleshy dark green, heart-shaped leaves. It is more commonly reported to flower from March until May, and is sometimes called the "spring messenger" as a consequence.

Watched as the bird graduall soared higher once it had found a thermal, this was quite low down.. Once it really soared, it met up with a second Buzzard and as I processed the images, I could see it looking around.
