Male blackbird on a mudbank in the Smestow Brook just as it crosses the water bridge over the canal. The same patch of mud is also favoured by the local wagtails.

Patch of coltsfoots, seen when in flower, growing on the bank directly overlooking the side weir of one of locks on the Birmingham Canal.

Pink camelias flowering in a front garden a few days ago.

Bluebell in a front garden earlier this week when the flower was just about to open.

Lichen and moss, vegetation in low relief. These were growing on otherwise bare rocks by a pond between the Science Park and the canal.

Funnel-shaped spider’s web in a compost bin, the lair of the spider in the previous post.
