Thank you to everyone who views, favs or comments on my photos, it is always appreciated.
After mating the pair remain in tandem so that the male can guard the female and stop other males trying to mate with her as they prepare for or rest during oviposition.

Do you remember my photo 'A work in progress' ?
Well, I finally finished the basic pattern. It is a very large extension of this origami-tessellation, called 'Start'.
It is the first time I ever folded such a large grid!
Now the fun part begins, adding the final pattern by altering the magical hexagons ;-))
Folded from a hexagon 43cm, grid 1:128, 'Anett'-paper.
If you are interested to see more, have a look at my tessellation album Origami - Tessellation Progression".

Une saison remarquable lors de la migration des limicoles dans la baie Missisquoi, Des rares visiteurs ont pu être observés, comme ce phalarope à bec large. Un lifer pour moi !
A remarkable season during the migration of shorebirds in Missisquoi Bay, rare visitors have been observed, like the Red Phalarope. A lifer for me!
Took a long drive to the Lake District, a very cloudy, windy day so to get a clean shot of this the Large Heath made me very happy

The large skipper is a small, orange butterfly, similar to the small skipper. Adults fly between June and August, when they can often be seen resting in sunny positions and long grass, or feeding on flowers such as bramble. Large skippers can be found on rough grassland and sand dunes, along roadside verges and woodland edges, in large gardens, or anywhere else with plenty of grasses. They lay their eggs on grass blades. Foodplants of the caterpillars include cock's-foot, purple moor-grass and false broom.
The large skipper has russet-brown wings edged with large, dark brown patches and dotted with small, light orange patches. This pattern helps distinguish them from the small and Essex skippers. Males have a small black stripe in the middle of their forewings.
