My own contributions to the many beautiful photos of the Brixham Grey Phalarope today. A ‘lifer’ for me. Very glad it hung around long enough for me to get back with the kids and drag them out in the rain to see it 😂
Also a few GNDs about - including one in near summer plumage!

This is just a snapshot of the number of insects that have been seen feeding on the knapweed at Berry Head!
Knapweed is a huge favourite with all types of butterflies and other pollinators too.

The ranger team did an amazing job of clearing Hope's Nose of all its litter last week.
A total of 40 bags of rubbish and BBQs were removed from the site.

Here are two of the orchids that grow at Berry Head - the pyramidal orchid & bee orchid.
Both are popular with insects. The bee orchid, in particular, cleverly mimics a bee, both in scent & appearance, to attract other bees, which in turn helps to pollinate the flower.
