Good morning! It’s going to be a warm one today, but these common blue damselflies won’t mind; they’re one of the few species benefitting from global warming.

There’s a lot of mating activity locally at the moment among our dragon and damsel populations. This pair are in the ‘wheel formation’; the male grips the female behind the head, and she does an impressive ab crunch to bring her genitalia in line with his.

The beautiful summer chafer. Put this one safely in the hedgerow, away from footfall.

These lovely chonky beetles provide several environmental benefits:

🪲Natural Decomposers: They are considered “nature’s recycling heroes” because they play a role in recycling organic matter back into the ecosystem.

🪲Essential Food Source: This species is a vital and nutritious food source for many other animals, including various bird species.

🪲Microbial Support: They host specific bacterial symbionts in their guts that assist with digesting complex plant materials like wood components (lignocelluloses and xylans), contributing to the broader microbial health of their habitats.

Also…isn’t he cute? ☺️

Blink and you’ll miss him. The tiny, but very cute, garden grey moth.

Rewilding is going well. Aside from this moth, we now have ants farming aphids, earwigs, baby false widows, and several varieties of slug. Hopefully by next summer we’ll have bug hotels set up, and an array of plants for the pollinators to enjoy.

It’s Saturday, the sun is shining…and I have a hobbling dog. That’s both of us crocked in the last few weeks thanks to someone else’s inconsideration. So it looks like we’ll be resting up at the weekend.

In the meantime, we hope you have a weekend as bountiful as this young blackbird and its impressive haul of mayflies!

The beautiful, and somewhat rare, bee orchid. The most beautiful little flower. Its name, rather obviously, comes from the bee-like ‘lip’, which males fly in to try to mate with, and end up pollinating the flower. Sadly, the right bee species doesn’t live here, so this orchid is self-pollinated in the UK.

A couple of newer news stories regarding and their ongoing refusal to rein their unlawful AI operations in, despite threats of severe legal consequences from across the globe, by way of an explanation for my recent absence. At this point, tens of thousands of out of court settlements have been made to users who’ve had their data mishandled, their intellectual property stolen, and their reputations threatened by false allegations, and it’s ALL down to Meta’s greed and arrogance.

So I’ve been up to my arse in legal gumf ahead of my case against them. I’m literally waiting on the nod from court to file.

Serendipitously, this is also the week it has rained relentlessly, and my ankle is still recovering, so at least I haven’t lost a week of glorious shooting weather on account of their ridiculous, aggressive, ball-aching misconduct.

I have a few bits from last week to edit, and I hope to be back out there at the weekend!

Strike a pose!

Spotted this Egyptian goose doing his stretches. Unfortunately the longer I watched him, the more apparent it became that this poor kid has a significant injury/birth defect. The foot is permanently knuckled over, and it’s hard to tell just from observing if it’s a fracture that’s healed badly, or something that was there from birth. I hadn’t noticed it the previous week. I’ve let know, but he seems to be getting around OK and will hopefully be fine.

A couple of years ago, there was only a tiny handful of Egyptians locally. Now there’s around a dozen. They’re slowly colonising, and appear to be getting along with the other birds.

First Norfolk hawker of the season on my local patch. And what a lovely specimen. Seeing them return is always a highlight of my summer season.

It took a while for him to settle, but patience paid off after about 20-30mins, and I got to have a natter with a couple of curious passers-by while I waited for him to oblige me 🧚‍♀️

Virgin piña colada for brunch? DON’T MIND IF I DO! 🍹

A brief hiatus from shooting this morning while we swung by Chilli Hop Cider Festival. Suffice to say GA made lots of new friends, not least the lovely people at and for their generosity!

We had a lovely time chatting about dogs, wildlife, and Ukraine 🇺🇦 Thank you all for your hospitality. Have a cracking weekend!
