Was great just watching the bee,s hanging on the flowers. #Sharemondays2026

Been the year of Painted Lady butterflies for me, over a very short distance, I counted 39. #EastCoastKin #Ayrshire

The tiniest thing, that I have tried to get a picture off, these Slime moulds would not even be 1mm tall. #Sharemondays2026 #Macromondays #EastCoastKin

Playing with the Helios lens again this week, it is really a fun lens. #Sharemondays2026 #EastCoastKin

An inflight Emperor Dragonfly, i got last week whilst waiting for it to perch.

Early morning picture, taken with a Helios lens, to say it is a quirky lens, you just never know, what you are going to get. #Sharemondays2026

So much just now is all about the tiny beasties. #Sharemondays2026

Marmalade Hoverfly hanging from a single anther on the Phacelia plant. #Sharemondays2026 #macromondays #EastCoastKin

The patterns in butterflies is pretty amazing at times. #Sharemondays2026 #EastCoastKin

Had a few days chasing butterflies this week, yesterday was getting to see the Small Pearl Bordered Fritilary Butterflies out in the best numbers, I have seen them. #EastCoastKin #Butterflies

First time with the orchids this year and just played around. #Sharemondays2026 #EastCoastKin

This Macedonian Scabious I planted in the garden last year, has been great for the Bee's and odd butterfly #Sharemondays2026 #EastCoastKin

A Four Spotted Chaser from a wander into the hills last week. #Sharemondays2026 #EastCoastKin

Hot colour from the rather hot garden today. #EastCoastKin #photography

Different names for the Wood Louse, we call them Slaters, not got a clue why. #Sharemondays2026 #EastCoastKin #MacroMondays

Nice to just get out to the garden for some photography. #Sharemondays2026

AI think it is a juvenile Stonechat, that i got on my walk along the shore yesterday. #EastCoastKin #photography #Ayrshire

Was out taking pictures of wee beasties, when the big beasty came along the path towards me. #EastCoastKin #photography

The time of year, when just stepping out into the garden gives so much. #Sharemondays2026 #EastCoastKin #MacroMondays

Was cold yesterday, but still found one newly emerged Damselfly #EastCoastKin #photography

Our Bluebells are at their peak now. The Wild garlic is as well and is as good as I have seen. #EastCoastKin

Just getting out with the camera is my best therapy #Sharemondays2026 #EastCoastKin

I think this is an Alder fly, that had landed on my hand. #EastCoastKin #photography

In my little part of Ayrshire ,the Bluebells are close too there best, this afternoon. #EastCoastKin #Ayrshire

Small things in life keep me going on, like getting my first Large Red Damselfly. #EastCoastKin #Damselfly

Garden macro, sit with a cup of tea and wait and see. #EastCoastKin #photography #gardenmacro

Walked by this little area , quite a few time in my life, but that day, I really noticed it and all the possibilities. #EastCoastKin #Sharemondays2026

Back to the time, when you can just sit in the garden and get a picture. If you plant it, they will come. #EastCoastKin #ECK #photography

Newly emerged Orange Tip butterfly from yesterday #EastCoastKin #photography

Newly emerged Sycamore leaves are really vibrant, a sign of what is to come #EastCoastKin #Sharemondays2026
