Seen this little fella while at Clifton Grove Local Nature Reserve, Nottinghamshire.
[it's a still from a video file]
It is one of the commonest garden butterflies, found throughout lowland England and Wales with a wingspan of 63mm. It's unmistakable, with quite spectacular eyes on the upperside of the hindwings that give this butterfly its name. These eyes must appear very threatening to predators, such as mice, that confront this butterfly head-on, where the body forming a "beak".

Crinodendron hookerianum (Chile lantern tree)
Have this tree growing in relative shade. Must be getting on for 10 years old or more. Once in a while it gets pruned to promote new growth. If left alone it would be quite tall and wide, I have it around 4 feet tall and 3 feet wide.
C. hookerianum is a dense, hardy medium-sized evergreen shrub to 6m, with rigid, narrow, dark green leaves and fleshy, lantern-shaped, crimson flowers 2.5cm in length from late spring to late summer.

HPPT..!! have a great day.. thanks for taking a look..
I tend to give the Wood Pigeon (Columba palumbus) a tough time. Scavengers, greedy eatin' machines. They are! Rural or urban. So I decided hit the breaks, bide my time and this plump specimen landed nearby, sat for a while letting all its food just been eaten digest. And as they do, they breathe in, self inflate and shudder around. This is what I captured :)

Grape Hyacinths in my garden.
Grape hyacinth, Muscari is a genus of perennial bulbous plants native to Eurasia that produce spikes of dense, most commonly blue, urn-shaped flowers resembling bunches of grapes in the spring. The common name for the genus is grape hyacinth, but they should not be confused with hyacinths.

Common bumblebees include garden, buff-tailed, red-tailed, white-tailed and field bumblebees.
They are social insects, living in colonies of up to 200 workers. Queens hibernate underground during the winter, emerging in spring to find suitable nest sites – for example, abandoned mouse holes. Each queen builds a nest of dried grasses and then lays about a dozen eggs that hatch into workers – sterile females.
The workers gather pollen and nectar to feed later batches of grubs. New queens and males hatch at the end of the season and mate. The males, workers and old queens die; new queens hibernate. Bumblebees are not aggressive and will only sting if they feel threatened. They are important pollinators of many plants and fruiting trees.

New growth of this tree was fairly low to the ground hence being able to get these shots in the woodland of Hodsock Priory, Nottinghamshire.

Fern (Polypodiopsida).
Fern is widespread and often overlooked to some degree. With the advent of Spring they begin their new growth. Fascinating to capture the macro moments and colours they hold at this stage.

Lichen it or not (awful pun!) is everywhere! Look here for example, I have a Climbing Rose that's only a few years old, yet the Lichen makes it look brittle and almost dead. Great for Macro.
Apparently, it's a natural air quality indicator, as it absorbs everything in the environment around it, but only thrives when the air quality is clean. In fact, scientists use lichen as a measure of air quality in different areas. Well I never knew that! Nice to know I've clean air around me :)
The herbaceous perennial, Rudbeckia's begin to make their yearly appearance in my garden. It's one of my favourite plants.
Rudbeckia fulgida, Goldsturm, Coneflower, Black-eyed Susans, what ever you know it as, they certainly bring the sunshine to your garden!
Seen this fella lurking in my garden. European Garden Spider (Araneus Diadematus)
Shot freehand, a little closer than I actually wanted to be. It's core web was around 18 inches with the anchors reaching out some 3-4 feet away.
Remember a couple of days ago? This fern was on the brink of unfurling. Take a look now, steadily stretching out :)
(Polypodiopsida)
Here we see a Common Daisy (Bellis perennis) emerging. Look closely and you can see the fine delicate web of a small spider.
