Lovely winter scenes on the Rushy at WWT Slimbridge this morning, I don't think I'll ever tire of the sound of Bewick's swans 🦢 #GlosBirds #UKBirding

Very shaky handheld footage, but lovely to see and hear the male Great Spotted Woodpecker drumming in Kingsgate Park this morning in their favoured tree. Showing off that lovely red nape patch in the sun #SouthGlosBirds #UKBirding

A singing turtle dove at @kneppwilding.bsky.social a few weeks ago in the evening sunlight. Amazing to see and hear this gorgeous bird in the UK, absolutely mesmerising #UKbirding

Slowed down to half speed, I captured this footage of a male banded demoiselle stretching out his wings. In real time this happened in the blink of an eye. #odonata #damselfly

Here, a male purple emperor feeds on cowpat, giving stunning views of its underwings with their eyespots, as well as occasionally flashing its gorgeous purple upperwings. @kneppwilding.bsky.social @savebutterflies.bsky.social #UKbutterflies 🦋
