In the botanic garden in Copenhagen yesterday morning I spotted this red squirrel. He seems to have an expression of sheer shock on his face, on finding he had been 'snapped'! Yvonne  July 2025

 

 

 

 

 

 

I took this photo in the garden of some sort of orange dragonfly on a last year's nettle stalk. Google searches seem to say it's a common darter or a brown hawker but I'm not convinced it is either. Maybe someone else knows?

A butterfly called the pearl bordered fritillary, seen on Ewyas Harold Common, Herefordshire last weekend. It's a rare one so I am very pleased to have seen it and got a photo. It is feeding on a plant called bugle. Yvonne

 

 

Message from Exmoor 

April 29th 2025   I heard the cuckoo at 12.45pm today in a lonely place high up on Exmoor. It was singing in a famous tree called the Hoar Oak Tree where they say there has been an oak tree since time immemorial. As one tree dies, the next is planted. The tree is an important land boundary marker and it sits in the valley of the Hoar Oak Water not far from the source of the River Exe. Yvonne

There is nearly always a little flock of turnstones on the beach just by the pier or out on the rocks. This morning, the tide was almost fully in so they were huddled on top of the breakwater. Turnstones flip pebbles and seaweed over with their beaks and feed on crustaceans, insects and worms that they find on the seashore. Yvonne
