A black and white image of a ploughed field, next to a field that is yet to be ploughed. The image is high contrast and has a dividing line close to the centre.

Having moved into our new apartment this past January, I birded a pair of fox sparrows in the community greenbelt. They migrated out in spring and I was hoping for their return this fall

One has returned yesterday! 🥰

Fox Sparrows in the “wild” wild are not as conspicuous, so please enjoy!

🌊 The natural history of Carolina, Florida, and the Bahama Islands: London: Printed for B. White, 1771.

[Source]

Illustration from 1771 depicting a crab labeled "Cancer arenarius" amid delicate, branching seaweed labeled "Lithophyton." The crab is detailed with prominent claws and multiple hairy legs, positioned centrally on the seaweed, showcasing marine life native to the Atlantic regions of Carolina, Florida, and the Bahama Islands. The image features soft brown and gray tones on a faded cream background, characteristic of historical natural history prints.

Purple wild carrot flower.

Many small stemmed tiny bouquets of blossoms, pale purple in colour, combining to form one bouquet. On close inspection it is possible to see a dark purply red at the centre of the flower.

This morning’s endeavour in the Peak District. Two minutes of undeniably glorious light. Autumn getting off to a decent start and I’m trying to get back into the swing of sunrise.

Close-up photograph of a seven-spotted ladybug (Coccinella septempunctata) perched on a bright yellow flower petal. The ladybug is in sharp focus, showing its distinctive red wing covers with black spots and black head. The background is softly blurred in yellow and green tones, creating a natural bokeh effect. The flower appears to be a dandelion or similar composite flower with characteristic yellow petals.

📸 Calypte anna juvenile male 🪶🌿

Anticipating a LOT of bridge and building-shots for the theme, I figured an adorable juvenile male Anna's hummer I met 3 years ago this weekend would provide the eye candy my followers prefer. Ymmv. I love not only the crown and gorget feathers missing color at this age, but also his floofy white cottontail butt. Made you look.
