Hoverfly on Passionflower
One of my favourite insects on one of my favourite flowers. Nuff said.
Goonhilly
Goonhilly Satellite Earth Station is a large telecommunications site located on Goonhilly Downs near Helston on the Lizard peninsula in Cornwall, England, UK. Owned by BT Group plc, it was at one time the largest satellite earth station in the world, with more than 25 communications dishes in use and over 60 in total. The site also links into undersea cable lines. (From Wikipedia)
This is the site’s first dish, built in 1962 to link with Telstar. It has been dubbed ‘Arthur’.
Hooper Swan
The whooper swan is a large white swan, bigger than a Bewick’s swan. It has a long thin neck, which it usually holds erect, and black legs. Its black bill has a large triangular patch of yellow on it. This one was chillin’ at Leeds Castle.
Approaching Storm
A storm, out to sea, heading towards the Cornish coast.
Vertical Limit
Grasshoppers are seriously cool and they crunch nicely when my cat eats them.
