Meet Basil. One of this year’s cubs. He visits most evenings. We were worried about him a few weeks ago when he developed a bad limp, but he seems to be better now. There is something very special about that moment, when you make eye contact 🧡🧡🧡

Day 27 of #30DaysWild (I’ve been rubbish at updating this feed) - lovely walk along the sea wall at Coalhouse Fort. Spotted this (what I think is a) Green Veined White butterfly with a Seven Spot Ladybird larvae sitting behind it.

Another new moth. Every time I find one I think it’s going to be a rarity but it never is 😂. This is called a ‘Heart and Dart’ - a common and widespread moth, but one which I’ve never seen before 😂

Just a few of the plants I spotted on my evening walk for day 14 of #30dayswild - kniphofia in a wood, poppies growing through a metal fence and valerian self-seeding along public footpaths.
