Grey Heron (Lydney Marshes)

It wasn't a nice day, There was a bit of drizzle until after 1.30pm, then it started to get better and by 6.00pm, it started to dry things up. Good old sun! So I went out and saw this Heron.

Black Kite

This is a bad day for watching the wild life. But, it was a lovely day, when we took our mother out for a meal at a vegetarian place. She was 83 years young. Happy birthday mum!

Common Blue and Small White butterflies.

This pic is one of two butterflies enjoying themselves, unfortunately they chose the privacy of a flower.

The Small White is a bit shabby. It has been attacked by some beasties.

Red Kite

There were a lot of showers, mostly in the morning but a little in the afternoon. So, I thought that it is time to give up, and do some shopping which I suggest, was in need of doing it. And then, it started to clear up. The weather, I mean. It will have to have wait..............I am hungry.

Peacock butterfly

I had to wait all day for the men who were going to make a new kitchen. I was so unhappy, that they didn't come until 12.30pm. So, I put my camera out in the garden and the Peacock butterfly, dancing on a Buddleia bush.
