We had a lovely walk along the River Almond at Cramond this morning. We were very happy that this grey heron groomed itself in front of us.
We were also happy to see loads of wasps and hoverflies gathered round this patch of ivy. I just caught this one hoverfly (Sericomyia silentis) on camera.

Just a reminder that tomorrow is the People's Climate March with events happening across the globe. You can find out what's happening local to you here and how to get involved here, but if your local area doesn't feature on that site, then a quick internet search will probably find something closer to you.
the green moss is amazing on those rocks!
ReplyDeleteLove the heron, beautiful shots. The moss does stand out lovely.. Happy weekend to you!
ReplyDeleteLoved the picture and post. Have seen them do this before and it feels as if I'm partaking of a very intimate moment. :-)
ReplyDeleteGreetings from London.

ReplyDeleteyeah, I agree with speedyrabbit, the photos are awesome, but you can keep the wasps. even the photo makes me panic. ha ha
ReplyDeleteHi Speedy and dosankodebbie - the insect in the photo is a hoverfly, a wasp mimic hoverfly but it's harmless itself and when you see them in real life they move differently from wasps....
