From Wednesday evening, in the rain, at a local nature reserve. First time I've seen otter there. This chap was eating and quite happy to have me and a friend watching him.

I'd just said to my mate "Well, this weather is rubbish. There's nothing to see except those two swans. Wait, there's something brown just come up over there..."

:D It made my day.

Went out to Watermead Park, Leicester this afternoon - to the nature reserve. Never seen so many teasels in one place before. Here is a close-up shot of one

?anybody know if this is the 'seed' state - wouldn't mind having a few in the garden. I tried breaking one open but wasn't sure if the contents were acual seeds or just the husks

From a bit of research I'm pretty sure this is the seed state, if you look into the chambers of the head you should be able to see the seeds at the base.
You shouldn't have to remove the heads to get the seeds - a tap against the inside of a container/seed bag should garner you a few seeds. :)
