Spotted this young deer in the corner of a field just as the light was beginning to fade. Busy eating, he obligingly looked up on hearing the sound of my shutter. Guess those ears really work. 🙂 #Cotswolds #Canon6Markii @photohour.bsky.social #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

Something very special about late afternoon light and a pretty reflection. #Cromford #Millpond #Derbyshire #Canon6DMarkii @photohour.bsky.social #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

Up on Stanton Moor finding a path through the heather. Who would have thought that nature could provide such colour after such a drought! #PeakDistrict #Derbyshire #Canon6DMarkii @photohour.bsky.social #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

Highland cow enjoying a lie in the heather in the not so hot weather this week. #BaslowEdge #PeakDistrict #Derbyshire #Canon6DMarkii #70-200mm @photohour.bsky.social #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

This week I wanted to capture the effect of the weather on the land. I climbed the highest point I could find & took this photo. Fields of grass are almost indistinguishable from those harvested. #Crich #Derbyshire @photohour.bsky.social #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

The humble bee with a sprinkling of fairy dust on my favourite Hollyhock. #Derbyshire #Canon6DMarkii @photohour.bsky.social #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

In Derbyshire once a year we have 'Hen Racing' held at the Barley Mow in Bonsall - guaranteed to raise a smile! #Derbyshire #Canon6DMarkii @photohour.bsky.social #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

Barlow sunflowers near Chesterfield - a field of sunshine! #Derbyshire #Canon6DMarkii @photohour.bsky.social #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

Visited the Yorkshire Wildlife Park expecting the animals to be loving the hot weather, but they were more lethargic than us! So lucky to see the Tiger and this Leopard. #Canon6DMarkii #100-400mm @photohour.bsky.social #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

A brief visit from a hummingbird moth enjoying the nectar from my buddleia. #mygarden #Derbyshire #Canon6DMarkii #100-400mm @photohour.bsky.social #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

"Are you sure we're meant to be here?" "Yes, of course we're meant to be hare..." #wildflowers #hares #Cotswolds #Gloucestershire #Canon6Markii @photohour.bsky.social #loveweather #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

There's a magnificent rhododendron tree 20 mins for me and I have yet to capture it in full bloom. Just as pretty are the fallen petals - in front of the Village Hall built in the 1400s. #Alderwasley #Derbyshire #Canon6DMarkii @photohour.bsky.social #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

Stunning rhododendrons at Dunham Massey @nationaltrust.org.uk last week. #Manchester #iPhone @photohour.bsky.social #loveweather #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

Felt sorry for this Muntjac as he got caught in a field fenced with barbed wire. If only the gate could have been open! #Cotswolds #Gloucestershire #Canon6Markii @photohour.bsky.social #loveweather #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

Some wild weather this last week - sun, rain, hail, horizontal rain and even a rainbow or two. #clouds #iPhone #Cotswolds #Gloucestershire @photohour.bsky.social #loveweather #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

Meet a 'Lady in Waiting' sitting in the sun on a warm day with the light catching her wispy woolly 'hair' blowing around in the strong breeze. #lleynsheep #Cotswolds #Worcestshire #Canon6Markii @photohour.bsky.social #loveweather #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

I can still see you! #pheasant #dandelions #Cotswolds #Gloucestershire #Canon6Markii @photohour.bsky.social #loveweather #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

Loving the Bluebells this year, but finding them so difficult to photograph well. Here's some from across the road from my house, taken when it was far too bright, but so beautiful! 🙂 #Canon6DMarkII #Morley #Derbyshire @photohour.bsky.social #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

The hen pheasant is often overlooked as the drab partner of her mate, but close up the markings are almost as beautiful. #henpheasant #dandelions #Cotswolds #Gloucestershire #Canon6DMarkii @photohour.bsky.social #loveukweather #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

Spent all my time gardening yesterday & forgot to post my #ShareMondays2026 photo. Taken near #Ockbrook #Derbyshire came across the local herd of deer passing through. 🙂 @photohour.bsky.social #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday

A brief appearance of the sun followed swiftly by an icy downpour. Moss looking rather luminous in the bright light, but it definitely feels that Spring has sprung! 🙂 #iPhone #Buttercross #Morley #Derbyshire @photohour.bsky.social #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

"Who me?!" Loving this walk in the Spring sunshine 🙂 #pheasant #Cotswolds #Gloucestershire #Canon6DMarkii @photohour.bsky.social #loveukweather #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

Glorious weather here on Saturday. Out with camera near #Chatsworth & came across this #Sycamore tree(s). #Derbyshire #CaltonLees #PeakDistrict #Canon6DMarkII #loveweather @photohour.bsky.social #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

Still chasing murmurations, this one was in the middle of the town of Hatton #Derbyshire Just a few interesting shapes before heading off to the reed beds. Can't decide whether this is Morse code or short hand. #Canon6DMarkII @photohour.bsky.social #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

Murmuration near Nottingham - too dark for any decent photos, but I did get a 'two in one' image of seagulls as well as the starlings as they took off from the lake. #loveukweather #Canon6DMarkII @photohour.bsky.social #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

So thankful for a dry day & interesting walk around #Brassington on Sunday. Lots of lovely views, but this field barn ruin made me glad I had my camera. Will be back here again soon! #Derbyshire #loveukweather #Canon6DMarkII @photohour.bsky.social #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026

A dry day and an icy Valentine's Day walk near Hartington #PeakDistrict with snow in the distance. At the top of the hill was a trig point & two lone roses, one pink, one white - I'm still wondering what was the story...? #Canon6DMarkII #Derbyshire #appicoftheweek #fsprintmonday #ShareMondays2026
