Plenty of water voles about at the moment, but photos are hard to come by. (Ignore the date and time on the video: the clock needs re-setting.)
Had to pop back to show off this tremendous green moth, a Merveille du Jour. Having never seen one before, I suddenly had three in my trap last night, together with 5 other new species.
In the centre pic are two Red-green Carpets, superbly camouflaged.
Here's a bird I've wanted to see all my life. Finally caught up with a flock in Oswestry.
Really pleased to see this corn bunting, as I haven't seen one in this spot for five years. Also spotted a kestrel, skylarks, lapwings, my first chiff chaff of the year, and this badger sett where the occupants were clearly having a spring-clean.
This is as close as you can get to the seals, and wardens watch to make sure the seals are safe from people and dogs. It is very stressful for seals to be hassled. I used a 125X zoom lens to get my photos.
