Find the bumble bee!


I was looking at a slug on a toadstool when I turned round and found this lovely wee snail behind me.



I liked this interesting, different butterfly view.


There was a huge growth and layers of this fungi all round a big tree I just zoomed in on a small bit of it.


Brambles don't just taste nice their flowers are actually really pretty aswell.

This was like a mini version of cranesbill, I think it might be Hedgegrow Cranesbill?








I have seen swarms of these beasties this Summer. They look like St Marks flies but have red top half to their legs.








I finally got one of these little white moths to stay still.









I thought that this clover was very pretty.









I wondered why I had taken another photo of this flower but then spotted the lovely white butterfly on it.
