Back Garden - we haven't seen many Coal tits over the last 2 or 3 years, however this one currently seems to be visiting regularly - now just need to get it a little bit closer.

Binibeca - Menorca - our eldest grandson spotted this "speeding" through the Villas garden - I initially thought someone had lost a pet, but further googling showed that these are actually wild in Menorca and Mallorca. I did see another one but it was in deep vegetation.

Binibeca - Menorca - another of the only really obliging non UK butterfly I saw. We did have a Cleopatra in the Villas garden, I saw it flying close up ,and clearly saw the orange wing blotches, however when it landed it was in the hedge hanging under a leaf with wings closed.

Bough Beech (Roy Coles scrape) - this guy made just one brief visit mid afternoon, to the furthest of the remaining perches - not surprising really, as the perches are all surrounded by weed, without any clear water to fish in.
