Ant 'farming' an aphid, Forest of Dean
We have one soft stemmed tree in one of our hedges that the ants just love. They farm aphids at the base of the thumb-thick trunk and daily escort them up to the juicy leaves at the top. There they encourage the aphids to extrude a sweet-tasting juice as they feed off the sugary sap. How do the ants encourage the aphids ? By stroking them with their antennae, of course.

Gatekeeper (Pyronia tithonus), Ruspidge, Forest of Dean
As you can see from the photograph, the Gatekeeper butterfly has an interesting type of eye. Each ocellus (simple eye) has two pupils one pointing upwards and the other down. These butterflies are quite common in the Forest and like brambles and bushes which are separated from each other by 3 or 4 metres or so.

Ruspidge Road looking North, Forest of Dean
The telephone box is something of a local landmark, as is the somewhat sloping football pitch to the left (out-of-picture). Ruspidge road runs from The White Hart inn at its Northern end down to the Southern 30-mile per hour sign. The road then continues onwards through Soudley and down, eventually to the A48.

Bell's Place, Ruspidge, Forest of Dean
Either side of the cul de sac of Bell's Place has a tall impenetrable hedge. In each of the two hedges there is an oblong cut about one metre from the pavement from which the street name plate shyly peeks out - the one that should be visible in the photograph has been temporarily removed for maintenance. Bell's Place is on the Western side of Ruspidge road and the view here is generally to the North.

Just at the Northern end of the Ruspidge football pitch is the telephone kiosk. This view is looking North up Ruspidge road towards Cinderford. The lane to the left of the kiosk leads down to a farm by Cinderford brook and to a large and somewhat isolated house.
