I realise everyone's fed up with Mockingbird pics, but this was a significant bird for me. My 400th in the UK! Its taken a while! I promise, the bird is in the Holly bush in the gap in pic 2!

We said goodbye to our special Garden Dormouse, Brie, earlier in the week. This pic is from the day we found her 5 years ago. Their in-the-wild life expectancy is 2-3, so to last at least 5 is a testimony to her fighting spirit. 🐭

Two White-tailed Eagles circling over the Avon Valley between Salisbury and Downton just now.

Though I'm ill, still made it for our annual family trip to Cornwall. Started with the Red-backed Shrike at Marazion Marsh.

Yellow-browed Warbler still at Cockey Down, Salisbury. With Tit flock. #WiltsBirds

Increasing the diversity of local bird species by 10% makes Europeans happier than increasing their income by 10%.

Brown-headed Cowbird in Salisbury 😉

Can't be many peeps with Wasp Spiders in their garden!? 🐝🕷

Here's Beton-rod the rare hybrid between Betony and Golden-rod. 😉 Alternatively, they are cuddling. #wildflowerhour

Though the Salisbury Plain is all special, I particularly love the quiet, lightly wooden corners.

Pics can't do justice to how cute and fuzzy this Slime-mould was in New Forest today. Also saw my first ever nectaring Clearwing - a Red-tipped, on Water Mint.

#wildflowerhour Incredible show of Hedge Bedstraw. Just want to lie in it and fall asleep in the sun.

Anyone out there regularly moths in the field in Essex, or know anyone, or any public events, that do?

Has anyone ever gotten temporary (we need a week) insurance for a motorhome? What company did you use?

Shameless plug! Give MoffStuff a follow - it's a new baby of mine, coming soon. Fun 'Moth merch', designed for Moth nerds by a Moth-nerd (me!) https://t.co/Vb1tiRXw0H Thanks!

Osprey in front of Salisbury Cathedral! 😄 There have been two hanging around in the Avon valley for weeks (not nesting). Could they be @harbourbirds birds wandering? Couldn't tell if either were ringed, but one bird had distinctive dark central tail-feather.

A male Honey Buzzard back in at a N New Forest site this morning.
