365 Days Wild - Day 72

Wildplay today :)

This is the same boy that spent all day collecting slugs on a stick 2 weeks ago
( http://365project.org/roachling/365/2015-07-28 ).

Whilst looking for slugs today, and picking the few ripe blackberries around, he found this great crested newt and what I think is a leopard slug too.

A brilliant day with den building, pond dipping, making lavender bags, cress caterpillars, silver birch crowns and rolling the (huge) Earth ball around.

Love the blackberry stained hands in your shots. I noticed yesterday that quite a few blackberries are ripe here in Cornwall.

Fantastic find :)

[Carol Wiseman]

What a great find!

[Stephanie Swift]

I like the newt, the blackberry stains, and the way the hand is holding the newt so gently.

[Nick]

Wow, great find.

Marvellous, never seen a newt.
