Last week's bits and bobs

Lots of Bee Orchid rosettes well and truly up


We have 2 banks of these insect huts in the garden. These are a mass of bees, non-stop coming and going on a sunny day. I have a video that you can watch below




Black Tern last week at Far Ings, Barton


Coot and her cootlings xx



Our local forest with masses of tree felling.......in MAY !!


A garden frog that hopped out of a winter planter


There is actually no hope for the natural world when garden centres are now selling plants that deter insects



Great Northern Diver still at Covenham Reservoir



Grey Wagtail



She is giving him a right telling off here !!


Marsh Harrier that walked out of the reeds at Far Ings, followed by his female. He wanted a bath which he thoroughly enjoyed but it looks like she chowed at him the whole time ! 


The first garden spinach of the year wrapped up with a sprinkling of cheese in a breakfast omelette, served with sourdough toast and flipping delicious !


If I say so myself, I am without doubt, the sausage roll queen !!


Skylark


A beautiful sunset



Twayblade, flower spikes up and budding




Yellow wagtails


Yellowhammer on the reservoir wall
