Száraz kakin dőzsölő boglárkák - Ezüstös boglárka (Plebejus argus) hímek
Faj és nem meghatározása: Ádám Kiss.
Vajon mi vonzza őket oda? A nedvesség aligha, mert száraznak látszik a kaki, és különben is: volt néhány tócsa az úton, de egyiknél sem gyülekeztek a lepkék. Lehet, hogy nem is fogyasztanak itt semmit, hanem van valami speciális illat benne, ami feromonként hat rájuk? Ha így van, akkor talán mindegyik ugyanolyan nemű. Ha jól tudom, a lepkéknél a nőstények illata csalogatja a hímeket. Lehet, hogy ezek mind hímek?
--------------
Ádám Kiss szerint csakugyan mind hímek, ahogy gondoltam. Viszont a feromonos tippem nem talált támogatásra. Kristofer Mogyorossy és Patrik Katona érvei alapján úgy néz ki, hogy táplálkozási oka van annak, hogy a fiúk a kakin gyűltek össze, nem pedig egy pocsolya szélén: a leendő papák jobban rászorulnak a táplálékkiegészítőkre, mint a leendő kismamák.

I just noticed this guy and I saw he doesn't get as much attention as he deserves. Check him out! www.flickr.com/photos/alexscammer/
Stoney Jones swings a loop during the ranch remuda contest at Battle in the Saddle in Oklahoma City. His horse is TRR Mr Gunfighter of the Tongue River Ranch.
Haven't had a cardinal at my feeder for 3 years, so feel blessed he decided to pop in.
Brilliant red color against the white snow.
Actually told him to stay still till I got my camera! Nice of him to listen...
ARO email 4/12/2016
Overall 16 of the specimens that I sent him were new to me that that was also a great return from my perspective and a pretty good strike rate on the things I gave him. I do try to be very selective in what I send him. Two of the specimens I sent him were from a mixed batch of carabids etc that you had handed to me live having been taken from your moth trap 01 July 2015. The batch also included Tenebrio molitor which was identified for you soon after and a click beetle Melanotus castanipes or villosus
which Dave Buckingham still has - id not yet forthcoming. I don't think you had photographed any of them but I photographed three of the Carabids I thought interesting on 05 & 6th July 2015 so presumably given to me either that day or the day before. The three all turned out to be new ones for me and they were indeed all ones that need careful id from the specimens. They were:
Bembidion varium (I may have previously suggested B. semipunctatum to you as a possible id for this - the two have somewhat similar markings) top 2 images
Ophonus ardiosiacus (there are quite a lot of species from various genera with this colour combination of red legs and blackish body!) x 2 images
Ophonus rufibarbis (as indicated above there are quite a lot of species with this colour combination of red legs and blackish body!) x 1 image i.e. the last oneMT21 1st-2nd July 2015 TL005287
Hello John
Toddington is obviously producing more talent than Liverpool! I have now managed to take some images of the superb collection of beetles from your moth trap and I attach two of each of these.
They are numbered for my records as JP 1-6 and this should be the sequence in which they appear here.
I did not re-photograph Harpalus rufipes [Carabidae] so include 2 images of this at the end taken if one of my specimens as caught the day before your six of this. I have retained one specimen of each species to be checked except this one.
1. This is a lively little devil and reluctant to pose for more than a few seconds at a time. I am still hoping to get some side-on shots. I think it is probably a Bembidion sp poss B.semipunctatum but the species in this genus are not easily distinguished. [Carabidae]
2. Perhaps a Nebria / Harpalus or Leistes sp!? but don[t quote me on that please! [Carabidae]
3. I initially thought this was going to be another Carabid but no so! I think it might be Tenebrionidae and possibly Tenebrio molitor which is the adult of a mealworm and often attracted to light, but again please do not quote me on this!
4. Perhaps a Nebria / Harpalus or Leistes sp!? but don't quote me on that please! [Carabidae]
5. As indicated there are no flea beetles specifically associated with Primula. Nonethless in the absence of any actual associate one did pose on this for me a few times before leaping away! [Chrysomelidae].
6. If I had to speculate I would think possibly Cidnopus pilosus for the Click Beetle [Elateridae] but no more than speculation. I really do not claim any expertise on beetles I am afraid!
I will see what I can do about getting these identified by specilaists as and when I can but as you hopefully saw in my previous e-mail about these it may take a bit especially before all are done!
Incidentally you might be interesed to know that I had an e-mail from Jon Cole today in which he happens to mention that he is 86! What stamina and how impressive that he can still work at the level he does. I hope I can in twenty years time but fear I may be over optimistic in view of all the problems that I already have!
Best wishes
Alan
Before we came home from the air show in Fort Worth, I made Dave drive up to Denton. He showed me this summer where he went to college (Michigan State), so I had to show him where I went (TWU). TWU campus isn't near as picturesque as Michgan State, but they have a beautiful park on campus. That is where this picture was taken. I was walking around and saw my man, and thought I could get a picture of him before he took one of me...I was a little late.
Both gone, sadly - Mum died of a heart attack in that house, 13th December 2004.
Alfie was put to sleep 15th June 2013 - least he died of a heart attack, "Within the week" (according to the emergency vet).
This guy flew right into my Focus field. Darn the spot focus !!! Ruined the picture and a very good opertunity.
Just went and saw #FF7 #fastandfurious7 @ #moviesatl, damn good movie, great tribute @ the end for #paulwalker, thanks to him #vindiesel, #tyresegibson, #michellerodriguez, #jordanabrewster, #dwaynejohnson, #ludacris and the rest.
This is a version of the coat that Ville Valo wore. It's made to fit SD13 and is modeled by my Volks Tony. It is fully lined and the symbols and writing were all hand painted by me, free hand. Which was frankly, terrifying.
