Wolves Wild

Close up of one flower tube on a foxglove.

Young heron by the canal near Tunstall Water Bridge, concentrati9ng, fishing.

A scarlet tiger moth, resting on a buddleia leaf. The wings are folded, so the scarlet patches on the wings are hidden.

A dozen still very young ducklings recently by the bottom one of the Wolverhampton 21 Locks at Aldersley Junction, separated from the mother mallard by the brickwork lining the canal bank outside the lock.

Two harlequin ladybird larvae, on different leaves of the same hazel bush. There has been a lot of these beasties about these last few weeks.

Cucumber spider, tiny (less than half a centimetre long), visible because it was standing on a white plastic garden table. Common in gardens, but rarely seen because of their size and the colour their camouflage gives them among the vegetation.
