A dash of red.

Pastures new.
Two pics of butterflies from the patch. One you have seen before and a yearly patch tick.

Speckled wood.

This morning i had a trip around Ulgham local nature reserve nature.
Some thing i have been meaning to do for a while. It features on abbey meadows blog, from time to time .
I found this little place well worth a visit. A good variety of woodland plants in flower, enough cover to create interest from bird movement and calls.
One call i have not heard for a long time. Not quite a me-aow but similar to some noises a kitten would make lead me to,
high in the tree tops. A pair of Red squirrels. When i located this one i realised i was being watched, by the other one .

I thought I recognised that top pic. I saw red squirrel today at Stobswood and a few speckled woods.

I love the first picture. It's magical.
