A young male Sparrowhawk spent an hour in my West Kirby garden this week. Preening and surveying the birds below. A pleasure to watch.

Purple Emperor butterfly feeding on the sap run of a storm-damaged Oak at Minsmere, Suffolk, this afternoon, and showing its amazing underwing pattern... what superb camouflage!
