Cute little Tree Creeper, so lovely to see this one scurrying up and down the trees and stumps looking for breakfast.

An overcast day, but a sense of wide-open freedom against a backdrop of ancient glacial stone, scarred & roughly hewn into ground & hills.
A splash of whiskey in the flask of coffee & a thick wedge of birthday gingerbread by the clapper bridge over Austwick Beck. Another turn around the sun!

Oh for the love of #flies it’s #TaxonomyTuesday

These amazing females are Clitelloxenia assmuthi & these #Phorids are termitophilous - they live with, & some feed on, termites

This is one of the 190 recorded termitophilous & other termite-associated Phorids - one of the most ecologically diverse family of animals on the planet!

teeny tiny morning on the foreshore. the usual pins, anglets, and anlage seals. and oh I do like finding a bit of lead type. imagine a lazy typesetter surreptitiously tossing type into the river rather than dissing it back into the case. #mudlarking
