Kettering Wildlife corner

Quite proud of this photo of a Holly Blue butterfly 🦋 I took in the garden this afternoon

First real chance of getting a picture of an early spring butterfly 🦋 A Peacock in the feeding area on the track from the field

@WokeratiMarty Young Bob more like young Knob

Good news. The little right-wing twat Young Bob has just been arrested outside the Aston Villa football ground in Birmingham. He pretends to be a journalist and goes around winding people up to try and get a reaction for his shitty YouTube channel.

The watchers

Been a while February this year but hopefully my Wildlife pics and videos will be back again on a more regular basis Since retirement and having to get familiar with new IT as not the works IPad I have not posted anything Slowly I am getting familiar with new PC

Tedwalk was to Wicksteeds and back today Few pics of cute and not so cute wildlife on the walk Starting with spider on my MG start of walk Followed by cute ducklings at Wickies

Ted walk this morning around Grafton Woods It looked busy with all cars parked out the front but it was very quiet Walking in the woods listening to the sounds of nature

Dobby the cat working on my car

Whilst topping up the feeding area feeders and watering points I surprised this small frog in one of my ponds It sat nice and still on the pond safety grid whilst I took the pic

Today’s Tedwalk was along the Ise from Deeble Road to Warkton Road bridge and back Quite hot but biggest issue was the amount of biting insects and I must be tasty because got bit a fair few times 🙄

Happy Summer Solstice to all Watching the Summer Sun 🌞 rise at Ness Point at 04:30 this morning Ness Point is UKs most Easterly point so the sun is seen here in theory first

Ted walk along the Ise from Deeble Road to Warkton Bridge Very peaceful and actually very shaded which was good due to the temperature and the sun 🌞 Listening to the Ise trickling along is good for the soul

Tedwalk today was another visit to the Tywell Hills and Dales. Only me and Ted this time It is a lovely walk with the ‘bonus’ of getting through the Highland cattle in the quarry section. I picked up Ted and skirted around them using the trees

Suffice to say that the Honey Bees are now in charge of the hive 🐝 after a week long battle with the resident bumblebees. In the end numbers counted

@KetterngC And views like this. You forget about the noise. And listen to the birds.

Strange place to see Highland Cattle in the middle of a wood and nature reserve in Northamptonshire Twywell Hills and Dales Ted was not sure though

@Karolin40675197 Yes it is a great place to take dog for a walk the only downside is the A14 noise but the cattle make up for that

@KetterngC Love this place.

@ananavarro Ffs the guy should have showed him his knuckles straight between his no marbled eyes

Dear God.

Ted walk to Wicksteeds and back along Ise First goslings we have seen this year. Mind mum and dad not impressed with Teds appearance Is the plant a Triffid 🤔

Sitting watching TV but also watching the bats darting about out side front window, so it of shoot and hope and got this picture of a bat 🦇 that flew very close to the window
