Not that many years ago [though a seeming lifetime, Pre-C and all that] I spent a hot annoying day on Exminster Marsh. I was looking for what would have been a dragonfly Lifer, but the only success was Horseflies finding me...
Anyways, fast-forward to the Now and oh look,
Norfolk Hawker
Like the name says, 'supposed' to be limited to a couple of bits way way eastaways..
Climate change rulez ok?
[Ahem!]
Not as easy as that looks, as they were right little buggers for a long while before finally deciding that yes, we meant it, so they might as well sit and pose.
They?
Have another!
The two in view at the same time. Indeed those shots taken while the other was posing for the depicted picture.
[Not bad]
Of course, someone had three the day before..
[And two of those were definitely not either of mine, so that's minimum 4!]
Methinks maybe three or four years ago, somebody missed a couple of big brown things buzzing about the Ley...
Yes, this Ley;
Slapton Ley
Also in view;
Black-tailed Skimmer
Female
Black-tailed Skimmer
Male
Ramshorn Snail
Otter spraint
Marsh Woundwort
I took an hour's look at the sea in hope of terns and managed to hear a Sarnie. Not see it, mind. A smart adult Med Gull flyby was a little consolation, and it was worth a go.
Back to the important stuff, those wonderful gorgeous NH;
Let's have another pic!
Look at those
beautiful eyes...
Wooooooo........
:D
Be Seeing You...
