Pastures new, and old
ByDawnForgive me friends, for my prolonged absence. I have been doing that most stressful of things – moving house. So here I am, all settled in, exploring pastures new.

Fly Agaric
ByDawnWent out for a walk this weekend and came across some of these stunning toadstools. It’s quite often difficult to find them in such good condition, so it was a great find. This one is fairly young and just emerging from the grass.

Here’s a slightly worn Speckled Wood butterfly. (With…

Thanks Rob, no there were lots – easily 30 or more – I couldn’t count them! It would be a dream come true to have my own orchard!

Thanks Frances, this was taken with the Sigma 500mm f4.5
