Butterflies, Damsels and Snails
Phew - what a busy day. Washing, ironing, cooking and getting ready for our next trip up to Yorkshire tomorrrow and then on to Northumberland on Thursday - it's all go.
Had a bit of R&R this afternoon down by the 'pond/blue lagoon/just up the road/blipped many times'! The swan family have vacated, so Nigel (keen wildlife enthusiast, who I often bump into at the pond!) reliably informed me and also told me that there had been a big fracas a few days ago when a stray cob swan swam on to the pond and a huge fight ensued between the two cobs - feathers flew and beaks gnashed but seemingly no lasting injuries occurred, just very wounded pride from the stranger. The nettles and thistles have grown a pace since I last visited and lots of damselflies and butterflies were around. I nearly stepped on a Specked Wood and took a not very good photo of a 2 Spot Burnet Moth.
Do hope there will be some wifi up North so that I can catch up with you all.
I have backblipped:-
Tollesbury Saltings
Not in these shoes
and
Constable Country, if you would care to peek.
