Teazles growing on rough ground at the edge of Wolverhampton Science Park, heavily colonised by small spiders.

Young gull which had found the remains of a ray or similar cartilaginous fish by the shore, and was eating as much as it could before other gulls spotted the delicacy.

A couple of turnstones which had found an alternative to their usual hunting grounds on the shoreline.

One was worrying a mussel which it had found in a moored working boat in Brixham harbour.

The other was a young bird which had found there were rich pickings if it hung out on the pavement outside the chip shops on the front.

The ripening seeds on a meadowsweet growing at the edge of the canal, almost glowing in the light of the morning sun.

Michaelmas daisy flowers, brightening up autumn. These were on one of the plants growing wild on the edge of Fowlers Park and by the canal towpath.

The cormorants intermittently hanging out at West Park, spending much of the time up in the top of a tree. They are such a distinctive subject I rather overdid the photos. Time I gave the subject a rest.
