Hearing a lot of redwings overhead tonight
Hearing a lot of redwings overhead tonight
Thanks Steven
My goose id skill isn't brilliant but I believe this may be a Tundra Bean Goose?
3 Barnacles also present on the field between the old gasworks and the dunes, Theddlethorpe, Lincs
Aurora seen from my back garden, Mablethorpe just now

Seal watching at Donna Nook. Nature at its best here in Lincolnshire.

Only 9Β°C in the garden this morning but this Red Admiral was still very active
A surprise visitor whilst at my friendβs house in Scawby, N Lincs today - a long time since I last saw a Clouded yellow @savebutterflies.bsky.social
No sign of the Clouded Yellow I saw 2 days ago but good to see a couple of Wall Brown in Heacham dunes @norfolknats.bsky.social @norfolkbutterflies.bsky.social
Very surprised to see a Clouded Yellow in the drizzle on Heacham outer sea wall this afternoon @norfolkbutterflies.bsky.social @norfolknats.bsky.social
Nice fresh Small Tortoiseshell in the garden just now
Took another bike ride to the small lucerne field at Theddlethorpe today and saw 6 Wall Brown, 2 Small Coppers, Peacock, Speckled Wood and many Small whites
Small Tortoiseshell in the garden this morning
19km walk at #Holkham Norfolk today under a blue sky and a warm September sun. Saw some great birds, including skeins of newly arrived Pink Footed Geese, 4 Hobby's hawking for Dragonflies, and 3 Whinchats. But perhaps the highlight of the day was half a dozen Clouded Yellow butterflies.
I love wildlife watching while cycling. Brimstone & Red Admiral kept my spirits high while riding through mid Norfolk yesterday. #savebutterflies
A pair of Wall Brown at Heacham this morning
A very brief sunny interval brought out a few Wall Browns, Speckled Wood and Peacock at Heacham this afternoon.

Better late than never!
The first Painted Lady I've seen in my Mablethorpe garden this year.
Took another bike ride down to the Lucerne field at Theddlethorpe this morning and saw 10 species of butterflies in 30 mins including Small Copper, Painted Lady, Common Blue, Red Admiral, Comma, Peacock, Speckled Wood, Large & Small White and Small Tortoiseshell in the sunshine
First Comma in the garden for a few weeks.
I've never noticed the row of green spots on the underside before!
Common Blue & Small Copper on a small Lucerne field at Theddlethorpe this morning before the sun disappeared but no Clouded Yellows unfortunately
