These walls along Corstorphine Road are full of snails once you start looking
and the ivy is in flower, attracting late hoverflies to feed in the sunshine, like this Helophilus sp (commonly known as the footballer hoverfly, but also the sun fly).
and a beautiful red admiral that was shy about opening it's wings
The bunnies are back outside the hotel! Lovely to see them after a long absence
and there are lots of fungi around including these, which i think may be young King Alfred's Cakes, but I'm not sure, so if you can identify them for sure, please leave a comment!
Butterflies never co-operate with their bloody wings, do they!
