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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

An Imago Thursday...

 

*For our dear dear friend Virginia, a.k.a. imago2007... :)

 

(Behind-the-scene: A macro capture of one of my wife's Pink Hibiscus'. The light the afternoon I shot this was just perfect. Cara was trying to shake the bloom but I was able to distract her some by showing her a tiny lady bug from beside me. LOL! That yellow green in the background was a banana leaf hit by sweet afternoon sunrays. I am going to miss my Hibiscus and Banana plants especially when winter gets into full swing.)

From my garden. Ferns to Flickr. They are steadily unfolding and now's the perfect time to get some macro shots.

I don't know what type of Rose (Rosa) this is. It's been in my garden as long I can remember.

Another from my garden. Perhaps my favourite flower. A burst of sunshine yellow to add to the colourful fauna at this time of year!

The perennial Rudbeckia fulgida var. sullivantii ‘Goldsturm’. You may know it with another name, Coneflowers, Asteraceae, Black Eyed Susans, Rudbeckia Fulgida, Goldsturm.

National Trust. Clumber Park, Nottinghamshire. Autumn 2022.

A selection of shots taken at The National Trust's Clumber Park, capturing a hint of Autumn towards the end of November, late afternoon as Dusk was falling.

 

Clumber Park is a beautiful expanse of parkland, heath and woods covering more than 3,800 acres. It offers freedom to discover a ducal park - explore picturesque parkland and gardens, peaceful woodlands and a magnificent lake. Not only is Clumber's mosaic of habitats home to an amazing array of wildlife, it is listed Grade I on the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens.

A delicate macro capture revealing the hidden beauty of nature. The warm golden tones, soft textures, and fine details invite us to slow down and explore the wonders that often go unnoticed.

A fallen pine cone (conifer cone). A whole new world in macro. Must revisit macro shots :)

Magpie. (Pica pica). Part of the Crow family.

 

I often see around half a dozen magpies locally. In pairs and singular. Their sound is very distinctive at any time of the day. They certainly make their presence known to other birds. Clever, intelligent birds, some say they are able to mimic sounds. I wonder if they mimic the sound of other birds as some kind of defence mechanism or predatory reasons?

Magpies are on the Green list. Species on the green list are the least critical group.

Knot the best of shots, it's a little ropey. That's the best I could string together - Don't take a fence :)

A macro capture of Teasel (Dipsacus fullonum Sativus Group; syn. D. sativus) with its beautiful sculptural form and seed head in autumn. I really like their form and have a little fascination for them.

 

Teasel was used in wool “fleecing” (raising the nap on woolen cloth) and was used in textile processing, providing a natural comb for cleaning, aligning and raising the nap on fabrics. A valued horticulture plant which led to its introduction in North America as early as the 1700s.

Red Robin Tree (Photinia × fraseri) in my garden.

Initially looks like it's sun scorched. As the leaves emerge and expand the tips 'die' only to be replaced by new growth.

 

Sometimes known as Christmas berry 'Red Robin' and from the Rosaceae family.

There so many superb macro captures of daffodils on Flickr at the moment that I hesitated for a long time before deciding to go ahead and post my best attempt! The Spring is so very welcome this year that I really wanted to celebrate with a shot from our garden!

This little strap or rose tie with date on caught my eye while at Attenborough Nature Reserve. Clearly the nature reserve has a significant meaning for the parents to be. Good luck, who ever you are! :)
