I think this is a 'Lesser Stag Beetle' found in our garden by granddaughter Amelia, she and Poppy staying with us for a few days. This Beetle was full grown and probably over an inch (30mm) long, it is predominantly found in the south of England and parts of Southern Wales. It's rather s grousom looking thing in close proximity, looking like a possible nightmare subject lol ..................... #lesserstagbeetle #stagbeetle #beetle #insect #na_natures_art #universalviews #beautiful_nature #bns_nature #nothingisordinary_nature #natural_planet #nature_shooters #nature_sultans #naturepics #fromwhereistand #love_nature #srs_nature #i_macro_i #macrophotography #macro #macro_captures #macro_drama #macro_secrets #pasanda_macro #macro_vision #macro_in_bl #macro_brilliance #fiftyshades_of_macro #macro_perfection @ameliamacp (at Palestine, Hampshire)

A few more moments in time at wonderful Mottisfont Abbey, A view inside a very tidy potting shed, another shot of the shepherds hut and the very cramped interior, facilities must have been less than basic. Also I rare glimpse of one of my favourite birds, a song thrush, endangered in our area, and good to see it with worms for it young. ..................... #mottisfont #abbey #visithampshire #shepparding #sheppard #blueskys #universalviews #na_natures_art #countryside #englandsbeauty #wayoflife #livingofftheland #beautifulcountryside #bygonedays #nationaltrust #richinhistory #ww_nature_landscapes #ww_nature_knowledge #ww_nature_trees #ww_nature_miracles #peoplescreative #landscapes #landscapephotography #landscape #myhampshiredays (at Mottisfont, National Trust)

Various locations for these squirrel and bird pics, although quite cute, the grey squirrel is not native, it has been instrumental in the demise of our beautiful native red squirrel, by I would love to see the return of the RED, but it means a massive cull of the Grey imposter. ................ #wildanimals #inthewild #greysquirrel #ducklings #swan #ducks #wildbritain #beautiful_nature #beautiful_world #bns_nature #nothingisordinary_nature #wildandfree #natural_planet #nature_shooters #nature_sultans #swisbest #universalviews #birdsofinstagram #earthboundshots #goodmorning #na_natures_art #ig_myshots #srs_nature #hampshire

This small bird perched happily on flowering tape, unable to identify it, as it was too far away, but possibly a bunting or finch. 🐦🐤🐣 .................. #wildbirds #wildbritain #rapeflower #rapeseedfield #bns_nature #nothingisordinary_nature #wildandfree #natural_planet #nature_shooters #nature_sultans #swisbest #universalviews #birdsofinstagram #earthboundshots #goodmorning #na_natures_art #universalviews #ww_nature_landscapes #ww_nature_knowledge #ww_nature_miracles #super_nature_channel #wildbritain #beautiful_nature #beautiful_world #bns_nature #nofilter #natural_planet #nature_shooters 💕😘👍 (at Palestine, Hampshire)
