This wax bee comb appeared in a fairly exposed position in a Cotoneaster hedge on 30 May 2010 in Norwich. It was presumably abandoned as it is not in a sheltered spot. (2 pictures – face and side)

Another screen-grab from my Bird Cam, taken while at work.

Shows two quarreling adult goldfinches and a juvenile.

My neighbour noticed he/she has no tail feathers. There's been about 4/5 fledglings flying around this afternoon behind my house and this one was being fed by the parents, but it's been on my back patio for the last hour and I've not noticed any feeding. I can still hear it now as I type...

and it then turned to look down to our garden. We have not seen it since that day, presume it has fledged now.

These are scans from non-custom prints, before I attempt my own prints.

One of the few hedgehogs that I've seen in my garden in twelve years paid us a visit this evening during a sharp downpour!

This Bee was sitting on the ground apparently washing it's face and abdomen.
