Peregrine spotted on my morning commute

I will always pull over for a photo of a Peregrine Falcon (with prey) 🪶

A Cuckoo (1 of 2) by Smithy wood, the Keills, Argyll.

Went out late afternoon to see if I could find some of our local Brown Hares (Lepus europaeus) in nearby fields. Crops are growing giving them more cover to conceal themselves. Some more approachable than others. #Hares #Mammals #Nature #Photography #Nikon

Same hare as in the first shot. That was a close as it was going to let me get.

This one was sitting just the other side of a hedge only a few feet away.

A bit of a Mexican standoff with this one but it was comfortable to tolerate me. Lovely animals.

Hares galore on today's walk! Some were very obliging for photos, unusually. Normally as I stomp across the fields they spot me before I spot them!

A bright yellow butterfly with black, blue, and orange markings on its wings has landed on a purple coneflower in front of a blurry background of reeds and grass mostly.

Good morning!

Keeping going with #ButterflyWeek, here's an eastern tiger swallowtail I took a picture of last year up in the mountains of Virginia. 🦋

Good morning , and thank you to Martin Yelland for this beauty , snapped on his camera trap in Cornwall ! #FoxOfTheDay

A little egret stands in shallow, dark water, its bright white feathers glowing against the deep blue surface. It leans forward with its long black bill pointed straight down, poised to strike, while delicate plumes trail from its back like fine threads. The bird’s reflection ripples beneath it, slightly distorted in the water, creating a mirror image that echoes its curved neck and focused stance.

Good morning my cohost Rob @robcrank68.bsky.social has said “ today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Reflections, any bird reflection. The Alt Theme is #Robins, any Robin will do #ForJanet.” I’m going to go with a Little Egret. Love them. #birds #photography #ECK

The @nationaltrust.org.uk only rarely ask their members to take political action, but when they do, it’s seismic.

Please take the NT’s action, email your MP demanding the Government protect 30% of the UK for nature by 2030: campaigns.nationaltrust.org.uk/page/186395/...

A dirt road curves by a large bare tree in the wetlands. There is water on the left and hills in the background.

“The truth is: the natural world is changing. And we are totally dependent on that world. It provides our food, water, and air. It is the most precious thing we have and we need to defend it.”
-Sir David Attenborough

A solitary mining bee crawls up into the light for the first time and finds it all too much!

The Cetti's warbler ( Cettía cetti ), prefers to stay hidden in dense vegetation, especially near water, making it easier to hear than to see. Its song is short and abrupt, often described as a sudden "burst" of sound rather than a long melody .
