Monarch butterflies (danaus plexippus)

It was easy getting the Monarch here, I was rather cheeky, it was part of a Zoo, at Symonds Yat. Never mind, I'll show you some more another day.

They were enjoying themselves.

Smew (Mergus albellus)

Drizzle, drizzle, drizzle.........................................I should not criticise about the weather, because,  we are going to have some nice weather, yea. It is scruffy bag of tricks time.

Linnet (The 'Dump', Naas Lane, Lydney)

It won't take it anymore, spring is here, and soon be leaves all over the trees. But, now we can enjoy the Linnets.

Swallows (Harbour Road, Lydney)

I went to our place where the Swallows seems to come first, and, there it was, lovely birds. It normally lands here before thinking of going somewhere else to have their chicks.
