A Welcome Visitor on the Trail Cam!!
A Surprise possible resident Roe Deer!!
You don't see many deer on the Lizard, but they are around if you're quiet enough!! This was captured on a Thursday morning in our Orchard at 0635. Nice to see, but not good for our fruit tree's!!

Just a Few from our Holiday in Cape Verde (Sal)
 |
| Not Sure!!Saw this in the sand but it was quicker than me!! Any ideas?? |
 |
| Cape Verde Sparrow (Female) |
 |
| Cape Verde Sparrow (Male) |
 |
| I think Kentish Plover? |
 |
| Kentish on the run, Notice the leg ring!! Sarah and I headed off for a weeks sun in Cape Verde, (Sal). I decided to take my camera just in case I saw anything of particular note, only until later I found out it was one of only a few islands containing few birds.. I did see a distance brown booby and a Red-Billed Tropic bird, at least i think i did, also Cape Verde Swift and Little swift. The Cape Verde Sparrow and Cape verde swift are endemic to the Islands, so a first and possibly last for me. All in all good holiday for Sun, Sea, and all incllusive!!!!!!!! |

 |
| Large Skipper |
 |
| Atlantic Grey Bull Seal |
 |
| Common Spotted Orchid |
 |
 |
| Peak-a-boo After a heavy night out in Falmouth for Pub golf with friends, Sarah and I were in much need of some fresh air. Gale force winds were a little excessive, but despite the wind a walk was on the cards. Trying to photograph insects and flowers with high winds is not easy but i think i managed to pull off a few decent shots. Whilst Sarah sheltered from the heavy rain shower which appeared from nowhere, I spent around twenty minutes with three seals which appeared to be having some fun fishing and chilling out; lovely!!! The Six Spot Burnet moth is one of the few day flying moths; it is very common and found around damp meadows. They are beautifully coloured and very patient whilst being photographed. Is the butterfly a Large Skipper or small??? |

The picture of the Nightjar was just by chance, it flew on to an old pine whilst i was eating my Pasty!! A first for me, not an easy bird to capture due to it's Nocturnal habits.. Very pleased, Beautiful bird not easily seen due to it's superb camouflage... |
