Bempton Cliffs)

A female Redstart in woodland beneath the Betws mountain, Amman valley.

I saw the first Redstart (male) on April 21st so it was lovely to visit my favourite Redstart spot yesterday and see one male plus at least two, possibly three females.

The male seemed disinterested in the females but the females were chasing each other about relentlessly! Is there a reason for this anyone?

West Sussex.

Spent the afternoon up on the Mendips chasing bugs...

A female Kingfisher flips a fish around, ready to swallow head first as they always do. The image was taken in the Teifi Marshes in Ceredigion.

This afternoon in Dura Den in Fife.

This lovely bird was at Morton lochs this afternoon.

At the roadside in Angus.

As the light faded on the Scottish cliffs the last of the sun moved behind the beautiful beak and lit it up like a lantern..

This wee lamb was showing its love to mum

Black Paws was an orphaned fox I helped feed and she has now moved to her own territory.

Turned out nice again. :@)

I took this photo of a Dotterel last September, they migrate from North Africa to their breeding grounds in the Scottish Highlands. One of their stop off points for 'refuelling' is the Black mountain in the Breacon Beacons. Springwatch presenter Iolo Williams actually recorded one of his TV shows about Dotterel on the very same mountain. Sadly I have not been able to see any Dotterel migrating this year during the Spring or on their return this Autumn. I hope it's not a sign of things to come and hope next year will be better.

I was beginning to think I wasn't going to make the ten-year run on the 'Watches'… When this popped up tonight. Needless to say, I'm well chuffed.

This tiny little fella was taken up on the Mendip hills.

Their quite pretty but not for eating by us at least,I think the birds have some of them.

At Loch Milldam this afternoon.

We spent a lovely day at Bempton Cliffs yesterday. The weather was kind to us - after the morning, which was initially a little grey, the sun came out just before noon and the winds were fairly light.

These Razorbills are a bit tricky to capture in flight, as they are very fast!

Many thanks to all who take the time to view, comment or fav my images.

The morning sun beaming through my bleeding hearts 💕

Hope everybody is well. I couldn’t resist sharing this delightful bird with you.

Water voles like to sit and eat in the same place, so piles of nibbled grass and stems may be found by the water's edge, showing a distinctive 45 degree, angled-cut at the ends
