Day7 #30dayswild Thistle choked up with black aphids. @wildlifetrust @30dayswild @nottswildlife

Day6 #30DaysWild cold miserable walk today but you can still find time to enjoy nature. Spent a few minutes catching the rain drops on the tree branches. Brilliant to see the inverted image through the rain drop. @30DaysWild @WildlifeTrusts @Nottswildlife

Day5 #30DaysWild A little bit of rain & sunshine & everything is spring up and blooming. Lovely walk through the trees this morning @30DaysWild @WildlifeTrusts @Nottswildlife

Day4 #30DaysWild Nice to see some early insect activity this morning as rather cool and wet on this morning’s dog walk. @30DaysWild @WildlifeTrusts @Nottswildlife

Day3 #30DaysWild A rather damp night but it provides photographic opportunities when out on the early morning dog walk. @30DaysWild @WildlifeTrusts @Nottswildlife

Day2 #30DaysWild Up early dead heading to ensure roses keep blooming. They look better for a bit of rain last night @30DaysWild @WildlifeTrusts @30DaysWild

Day 1 #30DaysWild First day of meteorological summer and it’s dull and breezy, vegetation just won’t stay still 😂😂 @30DaysWild @WildlifeTrusts @Nottswildlife

Day30 #30DaysWild Final day and what a hot one! To finish with a multiple exposure of some brilliantly hot coloured #HeartleafOxeye. Bye for now until next time. @30DaysWild @Nottswildlife @WildlifeTrusts

Day29 #30DaysWild Wanted to try and photograph #Dragonflies Spent an hour or so at #BulwellHalllPark They are so quick! @30DaysWild @Nottswildlife @WildlifeTrusts

Day28 #30DaysWild A stroll around #WollatonPark with the opportunity to sit and watch the #FallowDeer. I could spend hours watching them. @30DaysWild @Nottswildlife @WildlifeTrusts

Day27 #30DaysWild Did you know nettles which have white flowers do not sting 😵. A multiple exposure of a normal stinging nettle and a white flowered one. I have not put this fact to the test 😂@30DaysWild @Nottswildlife @WildlifeTrusts

Day26 #30DaysWild The early morning dog walk produced an opportunity to see the #Kestral Hear it chattering away but rarely seen close up. I’m sure they have a family from the tweeting I hear. @30DaysWild @Nottswildlife @WildlifeTrusts

Day25 #30DaysWild A walk through the local woods brought about this glade full of #orchids. A lovely sight to behold. @30DaysWild @Nottswildlife @WildlifeTrusts

Day24 #30DaysWild So many wild cherries about this year. A potential food source for black bird, song thrush, badger & wood mouse. @30DaysWild @Nottswildlife @WildlifeTrusts

Day23 #30DaysWild Following on from yesterday’s look behind you, look up & today look down. The short sharp showers crest some lovely effects. We needed some rain everywhere is looking so brown! @30DaysWild @Nottswildlife @WildlifeTrusts

Day22 #30DaysWild I always have to remind myself to look up and behind me when I have my camera in hand. Some lovely fluffy clouds today racing across the sky. What has crept up behind you recently? @30DaysWild @Nottswildlife @WildlifeTrusts

Day21 #30DaysWild “If you go down to the woods today you’ll be in for a big surprise! “ Look who was peaking out of the trees today. I hope nobody has lost him 😢 What might you see today? @30DaysWild @Nottswildlife @WildlifeTrusts

Day20 #30DaysWild Back to more multi exposures whilst out on the evening dog walk. It’s still so hot! @30DaysWild @Nottswildlife @WildlifeTrusts

Day19 #30DaysWild Had the opportunity to get up close & personal with rescued owls. Did you know the #BarnOwl has asymmetrical ears to allow pinpoint location of sounds of its prey? @30DaysWild @Nottswildlife @WildlifeTrusts

Day18 #30DaysWild Back to the multiple exposures. Wild flowers from a beautiful boarder on the way to a coffee sat in the sunshine. What more would you want to do when the sky is blue & the sun is shining? @30DaysWild @Nottswildlife @WildlifeTrusts
