Metallic Jumping Spider in Moss, Jumping spider (Evarcha arcuata), Purbeck, Dorset, England
‘The metallic jumping spider is a heathland specialist, hunting its prey in the heather jungle of its environment. The tiny moss plants tower above the spider in this photo, emphasising the small physical size of the spider, though – like all jumpers, with their big central pair of eyes and innate curiosity – they are big in terms of character. Like a lot of macro work in the field, I was on my belly to get the animal’s perspective, but it was worth it for the eyeball-to-eyeballs view’

I was very tempted to trespass on this beach but I was put off by a bunch of alarming signs and surveillance equipment. Turns out that's a nuclear waste water outflow pipe. Bullet dodged, I guess.

The Pig - on the beach, Dorset, United Kingdom: Mellow yellow house tucked away along studland bay, the pig-on the beach is truly rural, with uninterrupted views of the long stretches of dorset's sandy beaches and jurassic coastline. Designed in the style that has become the pig’s signature, it features a greenhouse restaurant, panelled cosy retreats with roaring open fires, 28 bedrooms with a touch of luxury but bags of homely charm, and massage treatment rooms tucked away in the shepherd’s huts at the bottom of the gardens.

As I was trying to get a photo of it on some marjoram this male decided to make life a little harder for me by landing on my thumb instead!

Beautiful views in England, Scotland and Wales this year; at Durlston, Dorset at the weekend, Loch Garten in April and the Range with Holyhead Mountain visible a couple of weeks ago.

Corfe Castle: the castle's position allows it to dominate a gap in the Purbeck Hills, with the location probably meaning that a fortified site had been established here long before the Norman conquest.
