Cape Cornwall on Sunday Afternoon

We are lucky to have the worlds largest gull. The Greater Black Back Gull

Long distance shot of a Gannet.

You either love them or hate them, The Herring Gull in its true environment is a sttuning bird. In the town to some, is a menace. My business partner has a pair nesting on his roof, freshly showered, suited and booted leaving his house on Saturday evening one of the gulls flew off his roof and crapped all over him.Its a good job he is bald, he didn't have to wash his hair again.

Kestrel, always pleasure to see.

A Few Damsel Flies

Here are a few Damsel Flies, I know the Beautiful demoiselle but the rest are unfamliar.

A stroll down the Kenidjack Valley

Sam & I made the most of the good weather this morning and decided to take the camera's down through Kenidjack Valley. I was lucky enough to catch these Whitethroat busily collecting food for their young. The Stonechat popped along and joined in with the singing and calling of the Whitethroats. Meanwhile, Sam on a butterfly hunt managed to find this beautiful common blue butterfly which finally rested long enough for Sam to capture it. We had such an enjoyable walk, we didn't realise until we were heading home that we had been out for 5 hours! The joys of living in such a beautiful part of Cornwall.

Dedicated to the Swallow

We have a pair of Swallows nesting in a neighbours garage and fly over our garden regularly. I am hoping they are successful in rearing young and look forward to their fledge. Please click the image to enlarge
