Your Wildlife Sightings!

A couple from today in the garden:

 

I keep looking for frog's but no luck other than the tadpoles, great pictures T

 

Thank you.

 

I used to be scared of butterflies thinking they were just moths with colourful wing's , but recently I've seen loads of the white one's with green and gold on them and they're very pretty and fluttery, also * myself from wasps but not a fear of bees this year in fact I'm really excited when I see a bee yet they seem to be getting bigger

 

There's loads of different kinds of bee. Most are solitary and build individual tunnels close to others.

We used to get some in our garden that kept coming back with cut pieces of leaves just like leafcutter ants.

Amazing to watch.

 

Must admit I'm enjoying seeing them and I don't bat an eyelid Mon the bee's @seamus1967

 

Saw my first swallow of the year tonight.

 

Even just thinking of moths and butterflies gives me the fear. Absolutely TERRIFIED of them Susan. They're my biggest phobia.
In other news, I've just seen my first Swifts and Swallow of the year.

 

A cool Lesser Whitethroat was singing in my garden at 6.30am this morning.Then a bit later in the morning on my local patch walk with Ruby Roo Boxer of course i got my first Garden Warbler of the year,it too was singing,i got a brief but good view.Also here this morning a singing Sedge Warbler,one of the local Green Woodpeckers flew past me,2 Wheatears noted and my first Common Blue Butterfly of the year.

Me too. Would quite literally walk in front of a train to avoid one

 

Got to watch out for those great big evil asian buggers that are killing all the Honey Bees in the US and Canada

Ringed Plover

 

Not sure but this little bird and a Goldfinch seemed to be enjoying each others company and provided at least an hours entertainment!
