A female grey wagtail hopping from one exposed tone to another in the side-stream of the Severn created by the Bylet at Bridgnorth, hunting for insects.

Wallflowers flowering on a wall:  the leaning stonework of the remains of Bridgnorth castle.

A lily in the front garden of one of the houses opposite Bantock Park: a shortish stem and distinctive coloured flower.

By the downstream end of the Bylet at Bridgnorth, a mallard with nine ducklings which looked like they may have hatched earlier that morning. The ducklings were enthusiastically exploring, with a couple of them swimming some distance from the protective gaze of the mother.

A single cowslip growing by the edge of the water of the canal near Compton.

Goslings in the sidestream of the Severn along the Bylet at Bridgnorth. There’s two broods here: one of four goslings, the other of two.

The fluffy goslings are likely to have hatched that day, or the day before.
