Found this hanging of a grain header in a paddock .The only lens i had on me was the 180mm macro so i had to stand back aways to frame it
An uncommon but increasing species with just 197 Sussex records prior to 2025 (but only 7 before 2000).
Hemp string wrapped around a tensioning toggle on a Marples bow saw. The saw frame is in the shape of an H. Across the bottom of the H is the location of the saw blade and across the top is the string, wound tight with the toggle. The toggle is kept tight by slipping it down a bit, to rest on the stretcher (horizontal) piece of the frame.
Where the tension is now, a pluck of the blade will emit a sound similar to a low guitar note.
The total size of the saw is 16 inches by 12 high with 4 inch handles extending out each side.
This image is two inches wide.
Several people have asked if I plan to use marijuana for my glaucoma. There are currently eleven states that allow this and Illinois is not one. I doubt if I would be tempted if it was legal! By the way, this is actually hemp, known around here as ditchweed. I'm told it used to be grown to make rope. Now it grows wild anywhere that doesn't get mowed regularly. Pressure is higher in my left eye and I have more eye drops that are supposed to help, but nothing for pain. Thanks For Prayer!
1 teaspoonful sprinkled on cereal, yoghurt and salad or blended into a smoothie. Part of my daily healthy diet.
Hemp hearts typically contain 33 percent protein, 9 percent omega-3 essential fatty acids, and are an excellent source of iron, vitamin E and GLA (gamma-linolenic acid), an Omega-6 fatty acid. Omega-3 fatty acids are particularly beneficial to the brain, skin, joints and heart and Omega-6, such as GLA, is important to hair, skin and bone health.
HMM!
Macro Mondays: Staying Healthy
The European peacock (Inachis io), more commonly known simply as the peacock, is a colourful butterfly, found found throughout Europe and the temperate regions of Asia and Japan. It is absent in northern Scandinavia and parts of southern Europe It has been found in lowlands, hills, and mountains at elevations of up to 2,500 metres. The butterfly can be found in woods, fields, meadows, pastures, parks, and gardens.
The peacock has a wingspan of 50 to 55 mm. The base-colour of the wings is a rusty red, and at each wingtip it bears a distinctive, black, blue and yellow eye-spot. The underside is a cryptically coloured dark-brown or black. The recorded foodplants of the caterpillars of the European peacock are nettle and hop. The adult butterflies drink nectar from a wide variety of flowering plants, including buddleia, willows, dandelions, wild marjoram, danewort, hemp agrimony, and clover; they also utilize tree sap and rotten fruit.

De bont gekleurde dagpauwoog (Inachis io) is een van de bekendste vlinders in Nederland. De soort komt algemeen voor in de gematigde zones van Europa en Azië (tot in Japan). Het grote verspreidingsgebied is onder meer te verklaren doordat de belangrijkste waardplant, de brandnetel, zoveel voorkomt.
In België en Nederland is de dagpauwoog overal algemeen.
De vlinder heeft geen echte voorkeur voor een bepaald leefgebied, als het maar zonnig is en er bloemen zijn om nectar uit te zuigen. De vlinder kan zich goed ontwikkelen in slecht onderhouden tuinen, slootkanten, industrieterreinen, braakliggende terreinen, bosranden, vuilstortplaatsen, bosranden, parken, wegbermen, spoordijken en vele andere door de mens geschapen biotopen.
De dagpauwoog is een vrij grote vlinder die een vleugelspanwijdte van 50 tot 55 millimeter bereikt. De dagpauwoog is hier niet te verwarren met andere vlinders vanwege de grootte, de oranjerode vleugels en de karakteristieke oogvlek op de bovenzijde van iedere vleugel. De onderzijde is juist goed gecamoufleerd door donkerbruine kleuren en donkere strepen.
