Slow Worms and some other stuff

I don't like giving out sites for reptiles, so lets just say that this is somewhere in South West Lancs.


A medium sized Slow Worm. We found four of these legless lizards.


Speckled Wood butterfly.


Common Tern. We visited Seaforth, Liverpool, armed with our brand new permits. The recent White-tailed Plover finally convinced us that we needed to apply! There was a decent selection of birds, including about 200 Common Terns, Sandwich Tern, adult Mediterranean Gull and summer plumage Bar-tailed Godwits and Knots.
