Spotted our local osprey and nest whilst out walking, no pics! Also 4 species of butterfly, red admiral small blue and 2 yet to identify.

'Chased' this one of two for five minutes, they were always 'just' on the wrong side...also very difficult to get the right exposure while under trees, had to highlight its head because it was in shade when i got back. Happy i got it though

And the other one...

Along with a jeuvenile Moorhen, cautiously working its way down to the water..

Sadly, i got a good look at a Kingfisher again but twice now, when looking back, the photos were'nt very well focused

Came across two cars stopped on opposite sides of the road on my evening ride not too far from Hedge End train station on Bubb Lane, with a poor deer bleating by the kerb (upright but legs tucked under it). 😥

Didn't see any blood, hoping it recovered from the shock of whatever happened and it lived to fight many more days.🤞

Next door’s roof ! I don’t mind them, but I think I’m in the minority. We’re on the estuary so well within their territory.

In Bristol yesterday

 

[biggs682]

We set up our first moth trap last night, checked it first thing this morning no moths just this bug with a heart on its back which Google says it's a Tarnished plant bug.

Fair bit of activity in the bird bath this morning ; fledgling Blue Tit, Goldfinch, fledgling Robin, Sparrows, Blackbirds and a small Wasp.
Also saw a fledgling Dunnock.

Male Linnet

Female Blackcap. This one confused me iu must admit, i thought it was a warbler but didnt see the brown cap until i downloaded it.

Yesterday, a probably weasel shot across the path in front of me.
Juvenile Great Crested Grebe over on the main lake, their neck and head has white and black stripes.
5x Goosander seen on the big lakes too, went and had a look but no sign for me.
