This evening spotted in the garden by my young fella , just managed to get a few shots before it sunk back into the undergrowth.

That Badger looks like he could be on sale in harrods toy department and the squirrel doesnt seem to be bothered about Covid-pass for their fine dining

Wren this evening from the garden, the others near the Black Rock, Banna, Co Kerry this evening.

Any chance this might be a juvenile Curlew ? Beak more like a Whimbrel but didn't have the markings on the head ? Couldn't post bigger pics, don't know what is happening!!

Herring Gull and Chough also, saw a group of 4 Chough.

Having difficulties posting pics myself, transferring very small into forum, any hints ?

NEW WAVE · 04-08-2021 10:25pm

I have the same problem on this and the photography site. I notice if you look at the address for the larger photographs displayed on both sites by clicking on the photo it begins with "live.staticflickr.com" Think boards is a bit of a mess at the moment.

Not on here much since 'the change' so I hope this works ok.

I think this is a Four Banded Longhorn Beetle, Leptura quadrifasciata. If it is, its a bit of a rarity, I'm in the right location being about 10 miles west of Portumna.....

I'll try a different tack.....

A bit of Flora and Fauna today from Kerry, Pictures are transferring small into the forum , don't know why, maybe someone with more knowledge might know , very annoying and disappointing but determined to keep posting and hopefully along with other issues will get sorted in time .........anyway from the garden pond area Marsh Woundwort, Speckled Wood, Hoverfly Eristalis nemorum I believe 😀, Fuscia, Montbretia and from the river Cashen near Ballyduff this evening Curlew ( I'm almost sure not a Whimbrel ) and Little Egret.
