Tamar hairy seal


a very rare image of the Tamar hairy seal ploughing upstream (note radio collar for GPS)

purple toothwort returns


seemingly rare, but definitely spreading, the elusive purple toothwort, appearing on time deep in the woods.

pink purslane


continuing the pink theme, pink purslane is back along the Inny. My impression is that this is quite early this year.

Venterdon sunsets


another stunning sunset over our village, the weather is set fair for a very fine Easter break. The mower is working, the grass is growing, I know where I will be.

not at Duchy College


not all pond life is at Duchy College studying how to drop litter.
