This image sums up the difficult time it's been for butterflies recently because of the rain we've had. This common blue was soaking wet today at Gaddon loch.

The Common Myna or Indian Myna (Acridotheres tristis) also sometimes spelled Mynah, is a member of family Sturnidae, (starlings and mynas) native to Asia. An omnivorous open woodland bird with a strong territorial instinct, the Myna has adapted extremely well to urban environments. The myna has been introduced in many other parts of the world and its distribution range is on the increase. It is a serious threat to the ecosystems of Australia. The Common Myna is an important motif in Indian culture and appears both in Sanskrit and Prakrit literature.
Paid a visit to one of the local daytime gull roosts once again yesterday morning in the hopes that the recent stormy weather might have bought in some more unusual species for MK. I only managed to identify the usual types in the end but it was still a great morning for being there.
Most of them stayed on the field nearby resting but every now and then a lot of them would take to the skies, either fighting over food or heading to the nearby landfill, which was when I got this Common Gull flying past. I’ve got loads of shots of these in flight but this is the best I’ve managed of this species to date.
Blåkoll / Common self-heal – Prunella vulgaris
Prunella vulgaris (known as common self-heal or heal-all) is an herbaceous plant in the genus Prunella.
Self-heal is edible: the young leaves and stems can be eaten raw in salads; the whole plant can be boiled and eaten as a potherb; and the aerial parts of the plant can be powdered and brewed in a cold infusion to make a tasty beverage.
Medicinally, the whole plant is poulticed onto wounds to promote healing. A mouthwash made from an infusion of the whole plant can be used to treat sore throats, thrush and gum infections. Internally, a tea can be used to treat diarrhea and internal bleeding. (Source: Wikipedia)
Blåkoll (latin: Prunella vulgaris) er en flerårig plante av blåkollslekten (prunella) i Leppeblomstfamilien (Lamiaceae). Den vokser på eng, i solrike skogbryn, beitemark og i gressplener i bebygde strøk, og er teppedannende.
Blåkoll er 5-20 cm høy, og stilken er firkantet og tynt hårete, og kryper bortover. Den opprette delen har doble eggformede eller bredt lanseformede blader, som kan spises rå i salat.
Blomstene på 12-16 mm er blå eller blå-lilla, og står i en liten opprett klase som har gradvis mindre og litt mer rødaktige blomster oppover. Dekkbladene under kronbladene er mørkt rødlilla eller brunlilla. De utviklede kronbladene framstår likevel som utpreget og relativt utvetydig dypt blå eller blålilla.
Blåkoll vokser over hele den nordlige halvkule i tempererte strøk, og er dessuten innført til Australia og Kina. I Norge vokser den nord til Troms, og går relativt høyt oppover i fjellet. (Kilde: Wikipedia)

Not so common here. This is the first redpoll I've ever seen at my feeder. Not the best pictures but at least I have proof it was here. The last day of October, there were 2 White winged Crossbills at our waterfall (another first) and I didn't get my camera fast enough to capture them. They never came back. So I wanted to be sure to get this redpoll in case it doesn't stick around.
