Could you help with ID . I assumed a hummingbird hawk moth but seemed quite small ? On the way down to Lantic Bay ….

My latest set of stamps for @RoyalMailStamps who says moths are dull and feed on clothes? Release 9th July.

Well, it’s that time of year again. Bird feeders down….and more light in the evening, so thought I’d ‘call’ the badgers in to see if they are still around?
Handful of peanuts, and….some of the 7 that appeared almost immediately!

One thousand people have followed me here in the last week. If you don’t know much about the swift brick campaign, I wrote a book about it called #NatureNeedsYou - The Fight To Save Our Swifts. It’s been a shocker of a ride so far but I will never give up. Why? I love birds.
