This stunning male was one of several individuals that I observed emerging to join what I would estimate to be around 2,000 Chalkies at Houghton Regis Quarry. They really are having a bumper year. Butterfly Conservation 🦋 Beds and Northants BC @ukbutterflies NatureUK

Some great footage I captured of the Little Grebe! A dog jumps in the water and frightens the ducks, and this Grebe jumps into action to cover their eggs - 10 mins later it uncovers and incubates them. Amazing!
