The West Park turtle, still regularly out on its log catching the sun on warm days.

Mistle thrush, Bantock Park, early morning, hunting for and catching worms.

Green shield bugs seem to be attracted to the buddleia bushes in our garden – also as a venue for mating.

A deep cutting on the Smestow Valley Railway Walk, with two broad slides leading down from entrances to a badger sett.

Fifteen Canada goose chicks in one group, feeding near the side of the West park boating lake. From three different families which, from the size of the goslings, must have hatched at about the same time.

One set of the parent birds right by the goslings, guarding and supervising. The other parents a little further away, on watch.

Once more, a collection of plants I have noticed on my lockdown walks and bike rides, mainly flowers, and mainly wild. The bean flowers and lavender flowers are from gardens.
