As long as there's some nature around to admire it doesn't really matter what it is.π
Walking back from Holkham Pinewoods to Wells alongside an ebbing tide we saw 3 Red Throated Divers, one of them a juvenile, and wondered if they were the same ones seen at Cley yesterday as they were heading west. Also a flying Kingfisher along the edge.

Walking along by the canal this afternoon there was another, or perhaps the same, Heron stood in a similar pose to the one yesterday, but at a different place and getting dripped upon rather than taking in the sunshine. On the Downs earlier we saw Wheatears, Corn Buntings and Stonechats and overhead another Red Kite.

Today the Heron was back to close to where I took the photo the other day, so there must be a plentiful supply of food for it in this stretch of the canal.
Saw this little fellow today on my afternoon walk, the caterpillar of the Pale Tussock Moth.

Posted on 03/10/2022 19:36 by nelliethehookerWalking off track today through Moors Valley CP and spotted a Goldcrest, first I've seen this year. Then on my afternoon walk saw these, which I believe to be White Fobrecaps, unless anyone knows otherwise.

Birds certainly do strange things I was returning from the bin run and just came around a slight corner and in front was a Heron flying low along the road and so I moved car to the side nobody else about thankfully and it flew pass me and all I could see was its head and neck and gave me a quick look as it flew by then landed on the road behind me about 6ft away and as I passed a small local Lavoir there was another Heron already there hence the other wanting to get closer they certainly look big with their wingspan flying close to you.
We had friends here late afternoon and they said that their neighbour had left a outside door ajar and when he came back in there was a female deer sat on his floor near the fireplace and not bothered as he walked around it even said he could stoke it and thought a bit strange and then he had a friend from the village arrive and said it needs to go outside and the deer decided to try and get behind the log burner thankfully not in use so they manage to make it go outside it then sat down again and within a couple of minutes it died both men quite shocked and surprised at this never seen anything like it before.
Did have a Treecreeper going along the trunk of our large Oak tree and looked like it was taking small acorns and pushing them into the nooks of the tree and quite noisey, but have see Nuthatches do this but not Treecreepers.
