Found this mini-beast climbing trying to climb up the side of the bird bath yesterday so there was great excitement! It was ‘saved’ from drowning and put on the path (which looks mountainous here) for a photograph.It was very lively! I haven’t seen a caterpillar all summer and I know this one is out of season. But I don’t know what it is.I would love to know…..? Took six shots. This shot turned out to be the best and is worth pressing to see more (amazing) detail. About 4 cms

I had been trying to snap birds this morning or anything else that flies in the field near me (….with mixed results). I took just  6 shots then gave up, cold, but it wasn’t until I took a closer look (later in the warm) that I spotted something else sitting there by the  birds as they pecked around…..  A RABBIT  who was either frozen with the cold like I was or simply unfazed by the birds and me, remaining happy to pose for 4 more shots, unnoticed by me! Here is one of those shots to go with the other two I put up earlier  cows can fly and brief encounter ( both odd photos from an otherwise dull cold photo shoot!)
