Back in sunny Wales after my first ever #birding trip abroad. Had a great time and saw lots of new birds but the highlight for me was a pair of hoopoes that were often hanging around just outside the hotel.

This close-up photograph captures an Eurasian Hoopoe (Upupa epops) foraging on the ground among dry grasses and twigs. The bird is facing slightly left, showcasing its distinctive features: a long, slender black bill, a sandy-pinkish-buff body, and a magnificent crest of feathers that is partially raised, displaying black tips on the upper feathers. The lower part of the body and tail feathers show striking black and white barring.

This is a photograph of a Hoopoe bird, easily identifiable by its distinctive fanned, orange-tipped crest and long, slender bill. The bird has a pale, sandy-brown body with bold black and white stripes across its wings. It's standing on the ground, likely foraging.

Jake the cat is annoyed.

Someone has bopped him on his napper and now his ears are on the wrong way around.

Who could have done this?

If you have any ideas, contact Jake now on Cat-Crimestoppers and give them a full description of his brother Joe, who thinks this is all very funny and amusing...

Luna was very scared at first so she was very shut down with new people and didn’t like being handled. But she is now friendly with staff and gets excited to see us. She does enjoy her walks! More: shorturl.at/OvEPy #adoptdontshop #rescuedogsofbluesky #dogsofbluesky #northwales #northwestengland

Spooky Ghost gives good cuddles and head bumps! He is quite a laidback lad who settled into the cattery environment quickly and is no trouble to care for. Could he become your halloween cat? More: shorturl.at/Yq4Wv #adoptdontshop #rescuecatsofbluesky #catsofbluesky #northwales #northwestengland

Tobi has been with us for several years now, and you'd never know that she's not a puppy with how bouncy she is.

She's a spayed girl, 50 pounds, gets along with other dogs but needs time to acclimate.

It might feel harder to smile this Sunday, but we will reflect back on Pupy and her beautiful spirit–Pupy who gave so much to so many that she never even met. Her life stands as an example of why we must continue to advocate for elephants in captivity. https://globalelephants.org/pupys-good-days/

It's #Caturday, the October Week holiday, and it's time for little catties to give themselves a wash and spruce themselves up.

Joe and Jake take matters of personal hygiene very seriously and Joe is very keen to make sure that his brother has washed behind his ears.

They're two simple souls.

Jake and Joe get busy with their daily grooming routine.
