Mallard with ducklings at Lakeside at lunch time. Also nice to see Tufted Duck, Moorhen and Ring-necked Parakeet. #Birds #UKWildlife
An enjoyable 12km hike through local moorland. Quite a few moth caterpillars around including this fox moth & drinker moth. Lots of spawn in the boggy areas & a couple of lizards too.

A gannet looks upwards, revealing the markings under its beak.
Psycho gannet at #RSPB Bempton Cliffs.
It was enaging in the mating ritual, billing, and I definitely snapped it at its least glamorous.

Common Sandpiper in the foreground with a Shelduck behind
Nice views of a couple of Common Sandpiper from the Boardwalk Hide at WWT Llanelli on Sunday afternoon. Walking amongst giants came to mind, even more so when a Little Ringed Plover dropped in also. #birdingWales #UKWildlife #birds #birdsSeenIn2026
Close shot.
Next time I drop a camera and it breaks i'll be tempted to throw it down again. Magic fixπ

Previous shot relatively long range, this short to mid range.

Took the drop fixed (see previous post) D7200 out today to check it's working properly.
Despite relatively dark conditions it seems OK. A little front focusing but I can work around that.

A large, shiny black fly on a bright green leaf.
St Mark's Flies are out at Castle Water this afternoon, a full week earlier than last year and 11 days before St Mark's Day, when they traditionally emerged. This is the female with little eyes.

On the odd occasion the sun has shone this week our garden has come alive with insects. Both a Holly Blue and this Dark-edged Bee-fly were new garden ticks. #insects #nature #wildlife #UKWildlife #photography #bugsky

This appears to be the first Sussex record of Bibio anglicus, which seems a little odd?
