🐝 Carder Bee and Lavender

There's something incredibly beautiful about the relationship between insects and flowers. Industrious and gentle at the same time, a mutually beneficial partnership that sustains both species.

I could watch them for hours - and sometimes do...

📷 Small White Butterfly

Another 'small world' shot taken in the garden of a city centre hospice recently - a haven surrounded by urban sprawl, where nature has been nurtured as part of a holistic approach to care for the sick and the dying.

Bursts of colour grounded in swathes of nature's verdant green, the gentle insect hum, birdsong and the flutter of wings - when the world shrinks to the size of a hospice room, to sit side by side with nature soothes the soul.

After a seabird summer, it's good to return to a more everyday garden bird - who doesn't love a robin?

A throwback shot from a few years ago, taken on the edge of a farmers' field in the Scottish borders midway through the harvest.

The deep golden back-light and dried out seed heads take me straight back to warm late summer evenings, gin in one hand, book in the other...

This may not look entirely friendly, but it is!

This guillemot pair are engaged in allopreening, a behaviour that builds social bonds and removes dirt and parasites in those spots that are hard to reach on your own.

It was a real treat to watch them in a lengthy bonding display - the bird on the left was having a lovely time!

A shot from my trip to Italy back in July - lightning strikes above the city of Verona. An incredible spectacle to watch from our balcony! ⚡️🌩⚡️

Still finding lots of unshared puffin gems from this year's shots - check out this beauty in flight!

These guys will be back out on the ocean now for the winter - small but hardy birds.

A little bit of puffin love for your weekend. 🥰

When puffins rub their beaks together like this - known as billing - it strengthens the bonds between mating pairs. Generally they mate for life, with a pair staying together for up to 20 years.

Incredible birds. ❤️
