I put up this one long ago, but it seems that this one is better.

Lesser Black-backed Gull at Lydney boating lake

What a day, first it was nice, then on the stroke of midday, it began to rain. And it got heavier as it grew darker. Still, it's better than in Cuba and New Orleans. Cor...........

A Puff-ball at Lydney Docks

Here is a slightly chewed up Puff-ball, very tasty. But, I left it. What a stupid idiot?????????

Cygnet at the Marshes, Lydney

This cygnet was chased by the larger of two adults, male. The cygnet was all alone, it must have been chased off, probably by his father. It kept low in the bank, 5 meters from myself. I was heavily camouflaged, so he didn't know I was there. I had waited for at least an hour, before it got up and went back in the water. I hope it will be alright.

Small Copper butterfly at The Marshes, Lydney

It was a dull and dreary day, but I had to show this insect, mainly because I didn't show one before. It is the least picturesque of my butterfly collection, and the photograph wasn't that great.
