Not much to show re images....[bit sidetracked what with birdfair and other things]....
I did venture thru my field of beans the other day and noticed something new..
Early morning cross-light revealed an amazing network of webs connecting this crop which has yet to be harvested....[my pic doesn't really do it justice]...
And just a couple of autumnal renderings of a cluster of wasps on blackberries. I was going to eat a few...[the blackberries..not the wasps]....but i had to back off.....:eek!:

Quietly beautiful, user.
Birds were flicking with an autumnal urgency today through hedgerow and tree as the sun beamed down it's brilliance.....
And feeding and basking in the late summer air...a family of spotted flycatchers charmed as they darted above...snapping insects above a nearby pond....
ps....you'll just have to take my word for it that the attached images are indeed of a spotted fly...[makes a change from just 'fly' stuff eh]...?
All the best....[especially to all those new artists on this forum...i can't keep up with all the new threads]...:eek!:....great stuff..:t:

Never enuff smiles.....[i will do more humor stuff on username-beast bloggy bit for you]....far too rude and sweary for here...!
Meantime...here's just some traditional photo's of one of my fav subjects....
As i wandered the fields towards dusk yesterday the skies put on a great performance as gull squadrons flew overhead to roost who knows where...
On hearing a familiar call i put my camera away and focused on two large birds grappling with each other mid-air....and i was shocked...for this was a species i'd never seen on my local patch....ravens..!! So 'wow' was i that i just watched them until they disappeared and completely forgot to take a photo....:smoke:
I am obviously a birdwatcher at heart....
ps...apologies for just 'photos' and not what i call images...[if not appropriate here i will bung the pix elsewhere]...

Shame on you user, those are just photos and of skies no less!
And beautiful they are. Sometimes the sky itself says all there is to say.

Stunning!
And I never fail to get excited about Ravens. They are so wary. And getting a good photo is hard. Unless you set your hide near a fresh carcass!
A missed opportunity indeed!
I am always surprised by the lack of enthusiasm most I've spoken to have about Ravens.
For me they are the embodiment of Nature herself. And I am always excited when I encounter them.
