Came across this one laying eggs.

The shoes and slippers belong to my son and daughter (you see them in my other pix). Their small footwear is meant to say that even the smallest step towards peace will count in the end.

I didn't expect to see any butterflies on the buddleias near Ramsden Square this morning in a cold and very blustery wind,but there was one braving the elements.With bad weather forecast for the next couple of days,this could be the last one I'll see this year.

I've added to my little army of comfort items recently. :)

The small overbridge at Deacons shows clearly the tight loading gauge on the IoW. Ryde Esplanade Tunnel was the restriction that required the elderly stock. Since then only former LUL tube stock fits under that route.

Small Copper butterfly (Lycaena phlaeas): blue-spotted aberrant form, caeruleo-punctata. Woodwalton Fen National Nature Reserve, Cambridgeshire. Monday 4th May 2015.

One of my favourite butterflies, inconspicuous in flight until the sunlight catches them and you get the briefest flash of orange. The blue spots on the hindwings that identify this as the caeruleo-punctata form are only poorly developed in this example.

Little Mermaid, Copenhagen, Denmark

Not as many butterflies on my buddleia this year, I wonder what has happened to them

Blog post coming soon!

This is the type of habitat that I was finding Small Blue (Philotiella speciosa). The location is east of Big Pine in California's Owen's Valley. Notice the mine in the center of the picture. There was a lot of sulphur in the area...

This is a short-long report on the feast of St. Blaise, which is celebrated in the town of Motta Camastra (Sicily): St. Blaise was a bishop and martyr and always close to the humble. It is said that in life, he managed to save a child from certain death by suffocation due to a plug that had lodged in his throat.

I shot this in a museum in Berlin. I think it was too dark so the color got messed up and there is no real shape in the image, but somehow I really like the abstract look of it.
