Day 7.153: Birds, bugs & flowers

Here are some of the things we saw on Saturday.

Swallows and a swallowtail:


A hitchhiker (I wonder it it was attracted to the stripe that would have been good camouflage?), a less welcome hitchhiker (albeit a wood-tick rather than its smaller-and-more-likely-to-carry-disease-and-be-undetected cousins), an amazing green beetle noticed by E5N1 (a six-spotted tiger beetle to be exact) and a rock covered in some kind of fungus (except it's not - it's thousands of tiny insects as Exile #4 pointed out):


And some flowers (so much easier to get to pose nicely!):
