I've hardly seen any salmon in the river this year, so sad to see that there are still fish getting infected with what we suspect is UDN – Ulcerative Dermal Necrosis disease.

Does anyone know anything about "star jelly fungus"? I always thought that it was something to do with frogspawn but this has just appeared on the way down Chiselcombe which can't be anything to do with frogspawn at this time of year. If you Google it, it's been thought to have come from meteors, reported back as far as the 14th century! Tonight is the Draconid meteor shower .... so could it be true??

Another sign of autumn is cider making! Mill the apples in to pulp, leave them for 20 mins or so for the tanins to take affect to give the cider colour & flavour, press them in to apple juice, stick them in a barrel in the garage until Easter for all the sugars to turn to alcohol & then enjoy!!

Also a common lizard enjoying the sunshine & some Burnett moths getting jiggy with it!

Every sunny day I head up Arnold's Lynhay to look for Purple Hairstreak butterflies. I managed to photograph one way up in the top of the Oaks but hoping for a shot from above to show their beautiful purple upper-wings.
Other pics are a Silver-washed Fritillary, a Gatekeeper & Bell Heather.

The Common Spotted Orchids have started popping up in Barton Wood, plus the Irish Spurge by the path on the way up there. I guess it's time to walk up to Myrtleberry Cleave where the orchids put on a great show
