Ringlet at Wild Lydney

I came to a new path being made at Harbour Road, Lydney. Really great, until I found that there was no room for disabled people. They are putting in three "kissing gates", but not the right ones. I'm waiting for them to come along and tell us what they are doing. The meeting is at 3.00pm Wednesday 2nd July at the Harbour Road, the old tip site. There is a tremendous amount of Nature, such as Bee Orchids, Lapwings, Dragonflies, Butterflies, the odd foxes and many more. The land is owned by Network Rail, and Lydney Town Council and Gloucestershire County Council who are helping with it.

Common Hawker (female) at Kensleyridge Inclosure

It's all Dragonflies, but that's alright. I went out to find a Fallow Deer, and would you believe it, I was looking in the eyes of the beautiful thing. She stayed for a few seconds and then she was gone, no photograph I'm affraid.

Female Black Darter?????????? at the Marshes

I am not sure if this is a Black Darter. It's quite easy to get it all together, especially the females! Thanks to Andy Carey, http://andrewcareyphotography.co.uk/index.htm who has helped me, though he's away in Scotland, searching out the Orchids, Eagles, Butterflies and Squirrels to name just a few. I can't wait to see his website.

Great Mullein at Moseley Green

This is the Great Mullein. Back in 25th May, I didn't know what it is, but with my book, I have learned a bit farther.
