I think this is the springtail Entomobrya multifasciata but I wouldn’t get into a fistfight with anyone who thought otherwise.

Photo by Melanie Plumley. Raunds tower is an ornate item. In this view, we can see 4 layers of the sandstone tower, and the broached spire above. The lower later is fairly plain, The second layer has vertical columns dividing the wall into 4, with lancet tops. The 3rd layer is similar, but in 5 sections and shorter and has a window in the middle section.
Recent Ringing
A peal was rung at Raunds in Twixmas. This was Bob's 5,600th peal. That's A LOT of ringing!

This is nothing to brag about!
The 'dangerous pavements' where a Herb Robert might be waiting to pounce.
Our #Raunds pavements are sprayed twice a year. I've never witnessed it, nor has anyone I've met. Is it done at night?

LIVE! It’s the #Raunds garage sale.
Piano stool, trivet, chess set and Playstation already gone.
And added Great Spotted Woodpecker to 2025 garden list.
A very fine selection of moths in #Raunds #Northants. Eyed Hawk-moth and Udea olivalis my faves. 47 moths of 26 species

Just seen a Swift over garden. An April Swift is even sweeter than a May Swift. They’ll be with us, over this small rural town, until mid-July and then a few lingerers until late August sometimes September.

2 Sand Martins flew over garden just now.

A Peregrine Falcon just flew over my house. A welcome sign of the times. Would've been an amazing record 30+ years ago when we moved to #Raunds, Northants.
Pointed it out to near-neighbour who'd just parked. She was thrilled.
Killed on grouse moors - see wildjustice.org.uk/raptor-perse...
A bit before 7am in #Raunds #Northants. Beginning to melt in the rain. Unusual these days - commonplace when I was a kid. I wonder why… #climate #change
Did you visit nearby #Raunds and see the medieval wall paintings in St Peter's? Have driven past Kimbolton church hundreds of times - thanks for this, might pop in.
7 moths of 6 species last night in balmy #Raunds #Northants incl Sprawler, Blair's Shoulder Knot, Common Plume and Common Marbled Carpet. It is November after all.

After yesterday's Cattle Egret and Hobby over our #Raunds garden, today brings a Med. Gull which drew attention to itself by calling. Not the first, there were four records in Apr/May 2020 - the fabulous covid spring (weatherwise). #northantsbirds @bonxie

Recent road and pavement spraying of plants in #Raunds. @NNorthantsC refuses to tell me anything about it unless I FoI them - so I will. But I will first contact my local councillor. Pavements outside Windmill and Park Infants Schools both treated. Never seen it happening, never

Raunds garage/yard sale. You can find us in Lawson Street. The binoculars and mug aren’t for sale. Nor is the Robin though s/he is our first visitor. #raunds

A flock of 9 Cormorants isn’t exactly going to compete with herds of Wildebeest as a wildlife spectacle but context is all. We don’t get Wildebeest here in #Raunds #Northantsbirds and having lived here for c35 years that’s my biggest count (even though @StanwickLakes is nearby).

My first House Martin record for the garden for 2023. Have seen very few anywhere. Used to nest in my street and just round the corner too and so were constant presence thru’ summer. Anyone know of any nesting House Martins in Raunds this year? #northantsbirds #raunds
