Today is #BandcampFriday when @bandcamp.com waive their fee. A good day to support independent musicians by buying music and merch, knowing what you pay all goes to the artist.
The next Bandcamp Friday is not until 5th Dec, so buying something today will help artists keep making the music you love 🎶

Well, this was exciting! A Eurasian Hummingbird Hawkmoth (Macroglossum stellatarum) feeding nectar from Salvia (Pink Lips) flowers right outside the window!
First time seeing this beautiful moth species!

Interesting to watch this Little Egret fishing near the lip of the weir on the River Dee in Chester.
The technique seems to be to circle the shallows while holding its head at a low angle, looking for potential prey.
It appears to catch a small fish.

Happy to discover we have froglets (juvenile European Common Frog) sheltering in a log pile in the garden. This one showed off its ability to climb the near-vertical face of a log, before tumbling to the safety of the long grass.
