Due to work getting in the way I've not been able to get out with the camera...so here's the very first image I posted on TwitX. A Little Owl sat on a post...none of that set up, baited nonsense...just a wild bird and lots of patience.

Lots of good Robin images on show this morning, so I'll add to them with the very friendly Fairburn one.

Fly 🪰 on fly agaric :) Been on the look out for local Amanita muscaria for the last few weeks and today finally found some! Such an iconic toadstool added bonus of a fly on top. – at Leeds, England

A tiny fungi today...possible Pleated Inkcap but that's just a guess due to how small it was. I'll leave it up to your imagination as to what it was growing on 😉

Lots of great Lichens about at the moment...I believe this could be Oak Moss...looking through my new guide it looks pretty close.

More fungi and if you can help with the ID that would be appreciated. Oak Milkcap or Brown Roll Rim are my first thoughts, but quite possibly something else.

Managed a couple of hours yesterday morning out in the rain looking for Waxcaps, but came up empty handed so more searching is needed. What I did find was copious amounts of pony poop and lots of Snowy Inkcaps growing on it, so not a totally wasted morning.

Just had my possible Splendid Waxcaps (right set of pics) confirmed which is exciting! Even more exciting the left pics which I identified as Scarlet (but weren’t quite right for) have now been identified as Hygrocybe neomarchii which I’d been wanting to see!😀❤️ #mushroommonday

Interesting behaviour from this Smooth Newt (Lissotriton vulgaris) in the garden earlier, which appeared to feign rigor mortis upon discovery under its pondside rock 💚🍃

A shot from this morning, one of the Bonnets but not 100% on which one, maybe Brownedge.

Looks like my fungi drought might be over 😂 I'm not sure of the ID though.

A Grey Heron photographed this morning at Blacktoft...it must be 13yrs since my last visit and although there wasn't much about it was very enjoyable. Reminded me of when I first started photographing wildlife, sitting in hides with just a camera, flask and some sarnies 👍

Whilst on my macro walk yesterday morning, I was once again kept company by the oh so friendly Robin, looking beautiful in the sunshine.

Once again the feather detail in another image has been destroyed, maybe uploading from mobile data was the culprit?
