http://steyningdogwalks.blogspot.com/2012/07/beautiful-girl.html
Some pictures of the natural world around Steyning as seen on my daily dog walks. Friday, 6 July 2012. Thursday's walk provided good views of many interesting insects. This female beautiiful demoiselle posed nicely for a picture near the stream. The males were flying strongly and interacting with the butterflies. (More of the butterflies to follow.).

We intend to visit our old haunts sometimes. Petra sends her regards from her new home. Posted by Doug Thompson.

http://steyningdogwalks.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Some pictures of the natural world around Steyning as seen on my daily dog walks. Thursday, 17 November 2011. Our walk took us up the Adur valley today (left). After some distance we branched off along a path through the Foxhall area where there was an unusual amount of fungi to be seen. Most of the pictures below are of unidentified specimens but the last ones are known as lawyers' wigs or shaggy ink-caps. There were considerable numbers of these in the field alongside the path.
