Meet our newest garden resident: a slow worm 🐍, showing that our piles of dead wood and old stones are working—they’re perfect hiding spots for reptiles and insects. Small steps, big impact for biodiversity! #WildlifeGarden #Biodiversity #SlowWorm

Woodland Minibeast Macros
The title’s a bit of a mouthful, and I hope you like these shots from a morning’s walk in a young woodland plantation near me. It was planted up as a screen to hide an extension to the local limestone quarry, and it’s now becoming quite the place for a mini beast walk.
Start with the least interesting, perhaps. This is, I believe, a Turnip Sawfly Caterpillar, and the oak saplings are full of them. Hopefully the saplings will recover once the caterpillars have fed and fallen to the ground to pupate.A little more colourful and still devouring the oaks, this is apparently a mottled umber moth caterpillar. You’ll have to trust me and I’ll have to trust the AI I used to identify it. Oh my, the conflicts of AI technology, but it does have its uses… and its downside too, of course.
Now this fella (I think it’s a male, as I also saw the much larger female on a previous visit) is a green cucumber spider. I spent a lot of time shooting this chap, and he’s simply gorgeous! So much so I know you’ll enjoy a close up… oh, you don’t like spiders?
What a cutie…
This shot is actually from my back garden, and from a sequence of shots as these two volucella bombylans hoverflies make a few more copies… most of the shots were top-down and less interesting, but at this point the stick they were, um, perched on rolled over. It didn’t dampen their ardour in any way I could see.
And down in the nature reserve, during the weekly butterfly count, I stumbled (literally) over this slow worm as it sunbathed. Wasn’t harmed and I restored it’s hiding place before I left.
There you go. A random selection of creatures. It does seem my photography is more ‘nature’ focused… well, it’s where I find my peace. I don’t know if the nature I interact with enjoys it as much as me, but I’ve never had complaints.
If there are complaints and you wish to toss dung at me, here’s the fella who’ll be appreciate it – a golden dung beetle!

meine heutige #AuwaldRunde stand ganz im zeichen der blindschleiche, ich habe gleich 2 gesehen heute :3
erst eine junge, dünne (aber auch schon 32cm lange) die sich nicht rührte, sich also entweder tot stellte oder es war, später eine ausgewachsene, doppelt so dick, aber gar nicht so viel länger, die huschte vom weg, blieb dann aber einen moment daneben liegen, so dass ich sie ablichten konnte#reptile #slowworm #nature #kriechtierchen #NotASnake #biodiversity

A close-up of the Slow Worms (Anguis fragilis) face, from over a week ago. Still quite exited that I got such a good look at it ☺️

Another look at last weeks Slow Worm (Anguis fragilis) from the Burren.
Believed to have been introduced to Ireland during the 1900s, they are one of two irish reptile species along with the native Viviparous lizard (Zootoca vivipara).

A Slow Worm (Anguis fragilis) that was almost stumbled upon during a walk in the Burren. One of Ireland’s two reptile species. Although it looks like a snake, they are actually a type of legless lizard (They've even got a detachable tail!).
