Not many birds around today but lots of butterflies and insects. Found this beautiful spider, the underside of which made for a good photo.

Sitting quietly in the sun yesterday when this wee field vole appeared from under the decking right at my feet. I spent an hour watching it dart back and forward scooping up bird food and taking it back to her babies.
Stillness and patience are often rewarded with some magical wildlife encounters... also good for the soul 😍

Thank you to our most recent guests in Odhran for this fantastic collection of shots. The red squirrel and the pine marten are now bringing the young ones to the 24 hour all you can eat buffet 😂😍

Time for a wee change of the Scottish theme from Highland coos to thistles 😊

Lots of wild flowers starting to appear. It won't be long until the buttercups take over the hillside again.

Came across this wee beauty today. Although snake-like in appearance they are actually worms and completely harmless .
They cleverly detach their tails when caught to allow escape from predators and then grow them back.
