Dotted bee-fly

I will confess to just looking that up to make sure you hadn't invented the name...

 

[Pan mixer]

Not professional quality pictures I know but I wonder if it has grown over winter.

Hedgehog in the dog food bowl last September.

Probably the same hedgehog in the same bowl last week, has it grown? Nice to see a survivor of the winter at any rate.

.....

I doubt it seeing as they properly hibernate so lose weight over winter.

 

[Great In Grass]

Dotted bee-fly

Never knew there was such a thing and have never seen one, nice one.

That is what I thought but it looks bigger.

Was it tagged? Might be a different one.

 

[Pan mixer]

Oh, Blimey I didn't know that I had to tag hedgehogs for cross compliance.

The poachers need some better dogs [emoji849] could hardly get moved for hares today, 6 in this group and 3 others in a 30ac field, seen lots of leverets when spraying and spreading fert the past few days

Who's Jared? Presumably fat finger syndrome and it should be hares

Oak in full flower.

Caught a goldcrest, must have flown into a window, appeared rather stunned.

I know, only ever seen a couple of them. No weight at all to it. Put it up in a fork in a tree to give it time to get its thoughts together. Hope it comes right.

I saw one a couple of weeks back , first one ever .

 

[Greenbeast]

Been waiting a while to get this shot, been seeing the male increasingly over the last few months and now joined every day by his mate (eggs must have hatched for her to leave the nest)

and for the fun of it, here they are chatting to my buddy Dale (excuse the back garden mess)

 

[Scholsey]

do you think he knew my camera was there?
