A male Brimstone feeds on a thistle flower with his wings closed. The upper wings are brilliant yellow in flight to attract a mate, this is the unique green leaf-shape when feeding or resting (and hibernating).
For one of the shots Nick needed to have attempted to make a snow shelter. We found this convenient patch high up on a hill side, and he got stuck in with gusto.

"Digging For Victory". Probably taken somewhere near Minster Lovell, Oxfordshire c1940 (the spires in the background are certainly the city of Oxford -- I think that that's Tom Tower at Christchurch College just right of centre).
The area where the man is digging was given over to be used as garden allotments so that local people could grow their own vegetables during the deprivations of WWII
Tormod and his nephew Uilleam had gone to the meadow to dig the mid-season potatoes. It wasn’t the best crop they had grown, but young Uilleam seemed to be enjoying the opportunity to be playing in the fresh dirt.
Two and a half beds dug and all roots carefully removed. Each bed yielded in excess of two wheel barrow loads of roots.
After removing the top soil layers of various quality of peat were available for digging. First by hand and later with steam powered engines.
What is this city crew looking at? Are they working on this road in Klahanie Community? Or are they digging their way out and to where?
Some photos I just like to share with you even though they aren't "perfect." I thought this was a funny one. The grizzlies in Denali don't have fish to eat, so they dig for squirrels sometimes. These cubs were really serious about having a little meat in their diet, and the dirt was flying ! I posted photos/movie of the catch a few months ago....
This is not my favorite from the series, but it has the most views.. like more than 100, but no comments...
Spent the day chiselling chunks of wayward concrete from beneath the fence, chopping up the cement base exposed when the flags were lifted, gathering up the gravel from the troughs either side of the garden and digging soil that backs up against the breeze block pen.
It's donkey work, but it will open things up. The garden is shaping up nicely.
It's really bad when you can't even enter your parking spot, and have to dig it out first. A view of our parking lot after the snowstorm.
All water source in Siargao came from underground digging like this.They call it atabay.

From the family photos, digging WWI practice trenches on Rothbury Moor. They're still there northumbriangunner.blogspot.co.uk/2013/05/rothbury-traini...
So begins my attempt to replicate the incredibleness of the Bowsaw trail. I have roughed out a line that doesn't drop too fast too quickly and now I've started building. I'm pretty happy with what I've done so far. I'm building up the mountain once again, and I'm getting more comfortable with that.
I've been digging up the stumps left over from the hedge I cut down over Spring Break. Unfortunately it's more difficult to dig out the stumps than it was to take down the hedge.
