Loch Lomond - RSPB Loch Lomond
Yellow Flag Iris (Iris pseudacorus) in Twenty Acres - compartment 10, RSPB Loch Lomond, a habitat suitable for butterflies, taken by David Palmar. In the background is Duncryne, a crag and tail landform. The crag is an old volcanic neck - probably Carboniferous - and the tail, being in the lee of the hard crag rock, has escaped as much glacial erosion by the last ice age in the region of 10,000 years ago.

Loch Lomond - RSPB Loch Lomond
A male Common Redstart (Phoenicurus phoenicurus) standing on a fence near the viewpoint above Twenty Acres, at RSPB Loch Lomond, in Scotland. Common Redstarts are migratory birds and are found in UK only during the breeding season, when they arrive after spending the winter in western Africa. During spring, they have an insectivorous diet and rely on open habitats like woodland edges, gardens, cemeteries and fields to find perches and spot insects, spiders, and caterpillars. Redstarts used to be classified as Thrushes, but are now regarded as part of the Flycatcher family. Description improved by Ilaria Lonero.
