molehill's mating Slow Worms
or is it one Slow Worm attempting to eat itself?
[ATTACH]Attachment 4688[/ATTACH] Here's a slightly better picture, showing his excellent technique - sink teeth into back of wife's neck, hold tight and get on with it - I've learnt a lot from slow worms :closed:. And another picture of a few under the warm slate we put down for them.
Are they edible?
Slow cookers for slow worms.
What's all the chirping coming from this hole...
Little Tits of some sort!

Nice one, Mr B.!
I saw golden plovers up by the 12 apostles stone circle yesterday. I'm sure there's always plenty of them about, but I've not actually noticed them and positively identified them for myself before.
Had a fantastic time on Mull last week, what a beautiful island! and so much wildlife. Saw my first Golden eagle, glided low over the top of the car and across a field full of sheep and lambs that scattered in all directions. A great sighting of an otter while fishing. First time I've heard Corncrake and did manage to see one. The place was alive with birdsong (so many warblers) the Grasshopper warbler has the most amazing song.
Love to be there when all the flag Iris's are in bloom. Defo another visit for me, but by bike next time.
