A bug feeding on a moth.

Marked as sensitive because creepy crawlies.

A cinnabar moth caterpillar on ragwort.

Butterflies! 🦋

Went on a little invertebrate safari in the garden.

A little wasp.
A fly.
An ant.
A grassbug.

Marked as sensitive for those who find insects too creepy.

Buying second-hand is great.

I bought a copy of The B-52's 'Wild Planet'.

Inside I found a gig ticket from 1980.

A tiny insight into someone's life 39 years ago.

A witch, or a chemist... or both.

Or something.

Courting Cretan Collared Doves.

Haul from the succulent and cactus show. 🌵

Frog and Sparrow.

Could be the name of a pub.

Visited the seaside today.

🐸

There's a little casserole dish I keep in the garden, full of rocks for frogs to sit in.

No frogs today, but there was a newt!

Took a few photos, named him Gussie, and popped him back.

Lookin' fer chips

Beautiful beasties from the greenhouse and the garage.

I work for this charity in the UK:

It's very good. I used to be a volunteer and it helped me grow my confidence and self esteem.

If you're the slightest bit interested, I urge you to give it a go.

Thanks 🌱

Been into stereo-photography for a while. This is my favourite picture I've taken so far.

No fancy camera. Just took a photo, shifted a bit, and took another.

You'll need a stereo viewer to see it properly. Unless you can do that thing with your eyes. Parallel-view.

Made the cats a drinking fountain.

It's just a plant pot with a tiny pond pump and some pebbles.

All hooked up to a PIR sensor so it only runs when a cat passes by.

Mlemlemlemlemlem.

A photo from my day job.

Morris dancer.

Turned out a bit Charles Darwin.

Don't you just hate it when that happens?

Saw this poster in Bavaria.

Inevitably, as part of my day job I have to clear litter. I can never fathom the minds of people that dump rubbish. In parks or otherwise.

If only this piece of art could reach them.
