Earlier this year, I was lucky enough to come across this stunning barn owl hunting during golden hour. I'd been watching the light change over this field for hours and it was stunning, so to be lucky enough to see this gorgeous bird fly right over it was a once in a lifetime experience.

Gouache painting of long-tailed tits for the upcoming book about my local nature reserve.

Long-tailed tits make stretchy nests from a base of moss and spider silk. On the outside they’re covered in lichen for camouflage and inside are lined with feathers for cosiness!

A fox lives in our garden.

About five or six times a year I'm lucky enough to see it going about its foxy business while I'm in the kitchen early in the morning, or while I'm working from home on a nice day.

Today it came out from where I think it lives, under next door's shed, and had a good scratch in the sunny patch under our apple trees. I'm lucky enough to have a phone with a decent camera so I got good pics from my home office window. (You can also see the lesser spotted washing line).

Our garden has been left to go pretty wild, mainly because the fox lives there and I love foxes. Also I'm chronically ill and my husband is autistic, so garden maintenance is low on the priority list 🤷‍♀️ I am happy to have a little patch of urban wilderness if it means I get to see British native wildlife from my house.

I finally finished up the Willow Warbler!

It has a neat little twist and eagle eyed viewers may notice a mistake which is now unfixable.

Ill add a new post later about the twist, comment if you notice either the mistake or the twist
