A well-travelled migrant, the painted lady arrives here every summer from Europe and Africa. This beautiful orange-and-black butterfly regularly visits gardens.

The beautiful pink and white bands of a Painted topshell make it easy to see where this little sea snail got its name!

This slim fish is usually found on gravelly parts of the seabed, close to shore, but can turn up in rockpools.

The small white is a common garden visitor. It is smaller than the similar large white, and has less black on its wingtips.

One of the prettiest hardy ferns, the lady fern is delicate and lacy, with ladder-like foliage. It makes a good garden fern, providing attractive cover for wildlife.
