Alexanders - increasingly the sight and scent of the coastpath in summer in #Cornwall. Lots of other #wildflowers to see where they haven’t taken over (yet!).

Greater spotted woodpecker feeding their very loud and hungry chick in Coosebean woods in Truro today. Such an amazing view of the nest from the footpath I could get the video on my phone. British Trust for Ornithology in Cornwall 〓〓 BTO Cornwall Birds #birds #wildlife #Cornwall

Finally starting to see more butterflies around in the sunshine. Common Blue posing at @CwallWildlife Five Acres reserve today. Also spotted Red Admiral, Orange Tip, Speckled Wood and the first Meadow Brown I’ve seen this year. Cornwall Butterfly Conservation #Butterflies #Wildlife #Cornwall

Hummingbird hawk-moths have become fairly regular visitors to the garden recently, but this is the first time I’ve seen one at rest. Hope it’s OK - looks like it might have some damage on the thorax. Cornwall Butterfly Conservation British Moths #moths #cornwall


Just a few of the weird and wonderful Carrot Broomrape at Towan beach on the Roseland. Thanks to Dan Ryan for posting about it. Added bonus - it’s on my favourite beach and the weather was glorious!
