High Summer



Balmy days and plenty of basking going on. Lizards are best seen in the sun-facing stone walls as the warmth tempts them out from their crevices.


More basking going on in the deep shrubs on top of Blacka Hill where stags were enjoying yesterday's afternoon sun. Our presence on the path was enough to disturb them. These two stags were sporting very fine headgear. Antlers are now in nearly finished condition after spending at least three months in velvet
