I eventually found some common blues this spring last week. Quite a few were looking quite old so they must have been around a little while they just managed to avoid me!

As of 2013, Common teasel is on the Washington State Noxious Weed List as as a Class C noxious weed. Pretty cool weeds! HMBT!

Love watching these guys feed.

The Common Woodpigeon (Columba palumbus), also known as ring dove is very common. With a wingspan of more than 70 cm and a weight of about 500 g the ring dove is our largest pidgeon species in Europe - and I think it's beautiful.

Common Redshank is a species known for at-times strident vocalizations, but I like to interpret this image as suggesting the bird was telling us “gangi þér vel” (good bye) at the end of our wonderful visit to Iceland. This final image for my Iceland album was taken at a pond near Garður. That town is on the Reykjanes Peninsula in the region of Suðurnes (not far from the Keflavík International Airport near the capital Reykjavík).

Toads from a small Bedfordshire pond. I was recording their calls on that day which lead me to researching their calls. It seems the tonal differences denote the age of the male toads. Also the temperature of the water can change the length of the calls. It's great to learn something new every day.

This Common Flameback is a male, with a red crown that the females do not have (as is apparent in the other three images I have posted of this species). What a striking bird! We were happy to get great looks thanks to the fact that we were in a hide (blind). The location was near Kaeng Krachan National Park in Phetchaburi province, Thailand, Southeast Asia.

 

Thank you for viewing.

Many thanks for your visits, faves and comments. Cheers.

 

Common Crow Butterfly

Scientific Name: Euploea core

Identification: The Common Crow Butterfly is a large black butterfly with white spots on the fore wings and a band of elongated spots on the hind wings. The outer wing margins have small white spots. The males have a pair of hidden orange-yellow brushes at the tip of the abdomen, which they can extend into bright coloured patch as part of the mating ritual or to deter predators. These brushes emit a musky odour. The caterpillars are striped. Pupa have metallic silvery sheen.

Other Names: Oleander Butterfly

Size: wingspan 70mm, Caterpillar about 50mm

Habitat: The Common Crow is found in open forest and woodland. Often seen in parks and gardens

Food: Common Crow Butterfly caterpillars feed on a wide range of native plants. They are often found in gardens feeding on Ficus (figs), Hoya, Mandevilla, Nerium oleander, Trachelospermum (star jasmines). The larvae eat the leaf and soft stem parts.

Range: Throughout tropical Australia and eastern Queensland. Adults sometimes disperse further down eastern Australia as far as Victoria, but there are no permanent breeding populations further south than northern New South Wales.

I think that is what it is, correct me if I'm wrong.

Apparently a very common bird in Europe - the Great Tit (Parus Major). He practically posed for me near Van Gogh's house. I can't believe the name of the bird. It's kind of embarassing to me.

The Common Stilt (or Black-winged Stilt) is another resident of the big aviary at our zoo. I think they have a very cute face and these red eyes are quite striking.
