First one I've seen in many years (apart from road kill) and the only time I've photographed one. I did try and move the grass out of the way but it tried to bite me.... A Hedgehog... Now I did wonder about seeing it out during daylight (although it was about 19:30pm), apparently female hedgehogs will come out during daylight for nesting material and extra food....

I spotted this in Newton-in-Bowland, near Dunsop Bridge today.......

First image was taken using Canon 24-105mm f4, second with the Sigma 30mm f1.4 Art

Down town Accrington.

Nice one... Why were there cowboys in Accrington?

Our own native squirrel, as opposed to the imported Grey one.

Red Squirrel at Formby Point (probably the only place to see them in the North West of England), I've been a dozen or so times over the last few years and have always seen one or more of them...

...because the market was on? :rolleyes:

Tongue in cheek.
It was taken at a photo shoot I was doing for a Western group.
They had a backdrop of a Western Saloon.
They paid for the others so I can’t post them here.

A visitor to the back garden yesterday, a ragged looking Blue Tit.

More Red Squirrels from Sunday...

Lovely shots, but No.2 is fantastic, if a little sad in showing what most of us in this country no longer see. The London Zoo has a lot to answer for releasing Sciurus carolinensis (aka the 'flying rat') from their cages.

Thanks, I'd rather the see the Red Squirrels than the Greys, it's not their fault they are here. I always remember them from the Tufty Club.

A evening bug hunt from Monday...

1, 2 and 3 are Green Dock Beetles
4: Weevil
5: A Fly - possibly a Sawfly....
6: Orange Ladybird
7: Two Flies - I don't think this is an amorous clinch - I think the one on top is sucking the insides out of the other....
8: Bluebottle

Re: Today in pictures
 

Really good pics as usual...Like No 5

Re: Today in pictures
 

Thanks, apparently the Black Fly - image 5 - is a St Mark's Fly - Bibio marci

Re: Today in pictures
 

Lot of birds about in Clayton so dad put some bread out back for them to eat....

Decided to stick out my camera and remotely take photos of them...
