Found this little creature last saturday. There was a beautiful piece of birch bark I wanted to take home, but when I picked it up there was this fire salamander hiding underneath it! Took a few pictures and put the birch bark back in place. This was the first time I discovered a fire salamander in that area!
I actually suspect that they might be sawflies rather than caterpillars, but to be honest I just don't know.
Here's a few more
A reed warbler in full voice
Honeybee
Another unidentified wasp
A snipe fly
A fly with red eyes
And this blackbird-sized bird that I haven't successfully identified yet (Help please!)
A small Nuctenea umbratica
A wasp chewing wood off a signpost
A purposeful swallow resembling something out of Star Wars

The swallows were being unusually cooperative that day, although I still missed 99% of the attempts to get them. All of the successes were of birds just taking off. Once they were up to speed they were just too fast.
Isn't that bird a thrush of some sort? The picture looks almost black and white so it's hard to tell.
No, I don't think it is a thrush. To me it looks more like a bunting, could be a female reed bunting.
