The bright green bioluminescent light (sorry it's out of focus!) of a female Glow Worm I found on my midnight walk home from a Bat and Glow Worm walk at the wonderful Hazel Hill Wood

A gorgeous Beautiful Demoiselle Damselfly making an all too brief appearance in the garden. I've seen lots in the local woods, but this was first time I managed to get a photo this year!

A few days of hot sunshine and the garden is finally filling up with butterflies, including this beautiful Brimstone feeding on Buddleia - such a relief to see. Butterfly Conservation πŸ¦‹

Alerted by agitated alarm calls, I looked up to see a bird of prey being mobbed by Swallows. Rubbish photos, but can anyone tell me what the bird of prey is? RSPB

Went out at midnight to look for shooting stars and glimpsed the Aurora borealis -a rare treat for south Wiltshire! Saw four spectacular meteors streaming across the sky as well!🌠

This dusky-coloured Broad-leaved Helleborine was almost hidden from sight, growing under an umbrella of Bracken fronds in my local wood.
