Squirrel in West Park, strolling by me, seeming not to have a worry in the world.

Spider’s web between twigs on a tree beside the Railway Walk near Castlecroft, with the sunlight coming through the higher branches lighting up the silk strands of the web.

This red admiral butterfly was very focussed on eating from an ivy flower recently: it completely ignored a hand coming this close

A late-season thistle flower in the verge of a lane near Worfield last month. A spider has woven its web resting on the spikes surrounding the flower.

The bright autumn colours of a Virginia creeper. This one was clinging to a conifer in the garden of a house near to the Upper Green, Tettenhall.

Pictures are of the fungus showing its development one week after the photos here.
