Isn't this just beautiful :-D
We always feed the crows on our walks and a lot of them have started to follow us! They are such interesting and intelligent birds.
It is no secret that I am obsessed with ducks! I made friends with this male Mallard while away. Isn't he so cute. His friend at the back was a little shy!
I managed to get close to these goslings. I was feeding them my usual birds seeds and they loved it! they were so cute and felt good to get this close to them :-)
I really like snails. They are such interesting and wonderful creatures. I love to see the different patterns and colours they have on their shells. This little fellow was happy to go across the path. After I took the photo, I helped him over to the other side. If I see snails on the paths I always put them into the grass or the woods. Nothing worse than seeing a squashed snail :-(
From this to this....
And finally to this...my dinner haha
I am learning more and more each week about mushrooms. I was lucky to stumble upon these Oyster mushrooms. I eat them a lot and they can be very expensive in the shops. So was glad to find these.
I always double check the mushroom online with some research and also check what it can be confused with. I end up spending half hour or more looking at the photos just to make sure! My advise if you are picking mushrooms, do your research and if you are unsure don't take the risk!
Also make sure you leave a few behind, so they can regrow! Don't be greedy, don't take them all.
There are plenty of tadpoles so let's hope we get plenty of frogs and toads. I really like both frogs and toads, they are amazing little creatures :-D
These 2 Robins appeared when we were feeding the birds. They let me get really close and I managed to get a good photo.
At first I thought this was a butterfly but further research told me it is a Cinnabar Moth! I spent about 10 minutes or more chasing it for a good photo, but only managed to get it at rest. It is a beautiful creature :-D
