This little Blue Tit visited us yesterday.

That's a great tit isn't it? The black stripe on the breast suggests so.

Looks like a young blackbird. How big is it?

Pretty small, maybe 3 or 3½ inches from beak to tail.

Looks like a fledgling blackbird to me as well

Wow, have just looked through this thread and found a wealth of stunning photo's.
Once my nightshift has ended, it's off to Lightroom we go to hunt out some pics to post

Snapped this little dear while he was outside my window preening his fluffy self If anyone has an idea of what he is I'd love to know, seems we have a nest in the hedge outside.

I'd guess it's a Dunnock, they're that sort of size and I think the young ones have redder beaks than the parents...

[Edilith]

Thanks for the fledgling suggestions, much appreciated

Some photos from the National Botanic Garden of Wales:

The blue dameslflies are always hard to identify, I think the first photo is an Azure.

Thought I'd post this on here...now I know what she is...a Beautiful Lady Stag beetle.

What a fab thread. I just had to add one of my pics. Not in the same league as the others but I was just SO pleased to actually catch a lightning bolt going to earth in a spectacular storm we had last week

Common Spotted-orchid (Dactylorhiza fuchsii) just up the road.

A Southern Hawker dragonfly that crawled out of my pond this morning, it took about 4 hours from the first shot to the last before it flew off.

Seven spot ladybird larvae at lunch, chaffinch, female reed bunting, Mullein Moth caterpillar and a couple of damselfly having fun

From the last few days, Comma butterfly, Cinnabar Moth and a Small Tortoiseshell

There are so many amazing photos on here!

There were a lot of bumblebees in the garden today and one was enormous, so I took her photo and then one of her friends arrived and erm well stayed for a while!

I accidentally deleted these photos from my card before I'd saved them doh! But OH loaded some retrieval software and got them back for me! He's quite clever sometimes!
