Here's your morning dose of cuteness. These fox kits had so much energy as they ripped around the hillside just before bedtime. For mom's sake, I hope they tuckered themselves out! #wildlife #foxes

A still moment.... Broad-bodied Chaser dragonflies were patrolling a small pond on my walk yesterday when one, a lovely powder-blue male rested among the flowering stems of Soft rush (Juncus effusus) 💙 📷 🌿 #InsectThursday #Nature #Photography #Dragonfly #Naturalist #Insects #EastCoastKin

The rain has finally moved away, and the sun's come out to play. Here is my Rosa "Alexandre Girault" climbing up our western boundary fence.🌱

Well, for a drizzly day in Norfolk this wasn’t a bad twitch. My first British Swallowtail for a decade at Strumpshaw Fen RSPB reserve. What a brilliant place, thanks @rspb.bsky.social and @norfolkbutterflies.bsky.social

Very fitting that Royal Mail should make a stamp especially to celebrate the @postalpathsguy.bsky.social new book… 😁📗✉️🎉

Struggled locally to find any Bee Orchids so this ( first one ) was spectacular , outside Scott House at WWT Slimbridge in heavy rain

Having morning coffee I saw some bees busy working on a nearby plant. I thought about how I probably wouldn't be enjoying coffee if not for bees, as the coffee flower is only open 3-4 days for pollination & yet, they get it done! Feeling grateful, good morning☕️🐝 #photography #bees #nature #Life

#Butterflies A green vein Butterfly feeding on Green Alkanet flowers captured on our local walks.

#SundayYellow One of the cutest chiffchaffs I have posted. It had perched on top of a bough which was covered in yellow lichen which indicates clean air and other good sources.

#Speckledwoodbutterfly A photograph of a Speckled wood butterfly which was taken on our local walks during the week.
