I think I’ve decided that I won’t delete my Twitter accounts, but I’m going to park my @LaughingGravy71 account and keep this one. I need to focus on the things that make me happy and that I’m passionate about. Nature photography is one of those things. Have some spiders 😅👍🏼

Good morning to all the good people! 👋😁🐦

I think we need to fill our timelines with amazing beautiful animals to cheer this place up.

I'll start with this hedgehog in autumn leaves. 🦔🍁

Over to you, get posting and sharing and sharing amazing and beautiful animals.

[Mart @BeardyBugMart]

@NatureArtVic I agree Vic. It's getting to a point where I don’t want to use this app anymore. That’s a lovely photo, so here’s my contribution of a wee puffin to brighten things up and put a smile on our faces 😊

[Mart @BeardyBugMart]

@NatureArtVic They really are great, and I see what you mean about the legs; they would be a proper bugger to stand upright otherwise 😅👍🏼

[Mart @BeardyBugMart]

@NatureArtVic Haha, well, blow me down with a secretary bird’s head feather 🤣🤣 I thought those pink things were legs, but what do I know about woollen animals and their peculiar anatomy 🤷🏻‍♂️😋

@davidha60766557 You're just annoying now with this level of excellence 🤣🤣🔥🔥

[Weemadbeasties @davidha60766557]

Facing my dew phobia face on, well not really this is back on🤔anyway.

Loads of dewy goodness and frustration in this one to keep me screaming at the PC and helicon for not just sorting it, my god, can you not just know how shakey I am🙄 do better programmers.

67 shot

“Don’t shoot! I’m unarmed!” It’s true, they are; they have legs, not arms. So I shot them anyway. Photographically, obviously 😋 #OMSYSTEM @OMSYSTEMcameras #macrophotography

Saved at the last second!

A very attentive farmer in the town of Euskirchen (near Bonn) discovered a Marsh harrier's nest during the wheat harvest yesterday evening.

He was able to bring the combine harvester to a halt literally at the last metre …

A rather splendid Gorse Orb Weaver (Agalenatea redii), from a couple of weeks back. Mwynhewch 😊 #macrophotography #omsystem @BritishSpiders @OMSYSTEMcameras

[Mart @BeardyBugMart]

A rather moody sawfly for your consideration this Thursday. A right bugger to expose at a level I could work with, but I got there in the end 😅👍🏼 @OMSYSTEMcameras #insect #InsectThursday

My first ever flight shot of a little owl, and the chicks are practising their hunting skills. Only 22cm tall but a wingspan of 56cm @Hawkandowluk @Natures_Voice @BBCSpringwatch @BTO_Shropshire @ShropsWildlife @BTO_GBW @OMSYSTEMcameras @SWNS @sosbirds

[Ed Phillips @Ed_P_Wildlife]

I had the camera on a tripod, pre-focused on the leafcutter bee nest hole, hoping for an in-flight shot. When waiting for her, another female bee and a Ruby-tailed Wasp also turned-up. This is a composite of 3 shots. I THINK the little bee may be Osmia leaiana? #Bees

@Avid_eva @skomer_island @WTSWW On Skomer, they get up close with *you* 😅 You're literally tripping over them as they scuttle back to their burrows. They'll all be gone back out to sea soon, probably glad of the rest from all the humans gawping at them!

[Mart @BeardyBugMart]

Eye eye, beak careful! This little puffin has their eye on you! Just saying 👀 #OMSYSTEM #birdphotography #birds
