@Hertsbirder @Robbirder 🤣

@JulieCuthbert1 @Robbirder I think stupidity is nearer the mark!

My first Hume's Yellow-Browed Warbler at Marston Vale Millennium Country Park today. Very difficult to keep track of as it flitted amongst the branches, so pleased to get this shot.

@Hertsbirder @Robbirder Thank you. Can't believe you went in that weather 😁 That's what I call dedication.

@JulieCuthbert1 @Robbirder You did well there! I made the mistake of going yesterday in that weather! No chance

Today looks like a perfect painting day as we have lots of much needed rain. Here's one I finished in the week, inspired by my first White Admiral sighting @GreensandTrust around Stockgrove lake.

Baby Newt hunting round the edge of our new pond. Tiny and perfect.

Luckily I noticed these beautiful Buff Ermine moths on top of the watering can before I used it today.

Treasure found on our walk today @GreensandTrust Rushmere Park. A Purple hairstreak wing fragment and a Mallard speculum feather.

By far the best Saturday nature pleasure I had ,another tick to my Grimmia Talley and an absolutely minter,Grimmia crinita at one of its few uk sites,only this site at Swanbourne Church and another church in Surry and that's it, fairplay propper nice @BBSbryology .

Autumn Magic. Apparently Reindeer herds people used to feed Fly Agaric to their Reindeer and then drink the resulting liquid to safely enjoy the trippy benefits.

Male Stonechat in the field behind our garden just after dawn this morning. Later on while I was at work @JulieCuthbert1 watched it feeding actually in our garden! Not jealous at all 😭 Not much movement overhead but did get a couple of Brambling, Redpoll and a few Siskin.

A huge surprise to see a Stonechat feeding in our garden this afternoon.

I love the look of aged manuscripts and have tried to recreate this style in my Nature Journal. #watercolour #art #naturelovers #naturejournal #twiternaturecommunity #wildlifeartists #paintings #nature #artists #watercolourpaintings #nature #wildlife #painter #sketches #artshare

Recently @Robbirder promised he would go for a quick dog walk then help me load the car and set up my art exhibition. Instead he found a Nightjar and I had to rush to join him.Luckily I made it in time for the opening and saw my first day roosting Nightjar which was fabulous!

Female Beautiful Demoiselle @GreensandTrust Rushmere Park yesterday

In the 2 weeks since saying "SORRY", 3 water companies have already paid out £672m to shareholders, that's your money and they still want to fleece you for another £10bn. Remember that the next time you find yourself standing at the ballot box. bbc.co.uk/news/science-e…

Just had a nice flock of about 30 Wigeon flying over behind the house spotted by @JulieCuthbert1 They circled around a couple of times before heading off NE

Woodland regeneration at a site I manage in the Chilterns. Holly, beech, hornbeam, birch, ash, elder, hawthorn all coming up through a protective layer of bramble. Paths cut through the undergrowth & some bramble cut periodically each winter.

Neighbours got 'pest' controllers round today to kill moles. Breaks my heart💔 Moles are an essential part of the ecosystem. When will people ever learn? #ecocide #Ecosystem #nature #loveformoles #TwitterNatureCommunity #wildlife #biodiversity
