Yellow birdsfoot trefoil flowers. This wildflower is a member of the pea family, and can be found growing in a variety of grassy places.

Carrion crow enjoying the selection of grains on offer at the bird table in the garden of Anne Hathaway’s Cottage, Shottery.

Harleqin flowers adding their vivid colours to the Dutch Garden at the back of Bantock House.

Yellow moth which flew fluttering past me before landing on the underside of an oak leaf on a tree in Turner’s Field.

Spotted from one of my favourite wildlife-watching spots – the terrace of the Dirty Duck in Stratford on Avon with a half empty glass in front of me. This female blackbird was on the top of the next-dorr wall, intently looking under the patrons’ feet for any scraps of food.

“Red” spring leaves from a maple and a copper beech. Actually the colour, where the leaves are not reflecting the bright light, reminds me more of up-market chocolate.
