The Holly Blue (Celastrina argiolus) visiting the garden, summer brood. The larva from the spring brood feeds mainly on holly plant hence its common name. Taken in the garden. Bath, BANES; Somerset, England, UK

 

Holly berries are a good source of food to birds and other animals. Holly berries are mildly toxic for humans. Red Beauty requires a male plant nearby to set berries. It is a close-up image and shows many berries. I use wide aperture to get more shallow depth of field. Have a great day!

Some color before snow will turn the world white

 

I made this yesterday. Today there's a lot of snow all over the country...

 

Happy Sliders Sunday!

 

(325/365) We went fungi foraging along the track behind Kanturk Castle but sadly didn't find any edible species. This sprig of Holly brightened up a dull day.

Holly Tree clinging to rocks during the recent snow in the Lake District. Love the dramatic weather beaten form.

Holly Blue Butterfly - Celastrina argiolus in my garden

The wonderful, rare, wild Sea Holly [Eryngium Maritimum ] grows in isolated places along the coast here on stabilised sand dunes.

Its differing green coloured and white veined and edged leaves which are almost luminous, make it very attractive I think. The seed heads which are just forming will eventually turn a light purple/blue adding to its lovely appearence. These plants can survive in extremely inhospitable places and can exist with very little moisture and are salt and wind tolerant. They were originally plants of the high arid places of the World such as the Peruvian mountains and the Andes. They somehow, with many other similar plants, migrated here some 15000 years ago as their imprints have been found in Fossils from these areas. Luckily no one was building border walls then!!

Ive reported the location of this beautiful plant to the Biodiversity Dept of Trinity College, Dublin who will log its position for future study.

This plant is said to have aphrodisiac properties but others say its not true. Mind you swalowing the prickily leaves is...er... would be quite severe and Im saying no more as my throat is killing me at the moment!!! And you lot, behave yerselves!!! Lol!

Hope you like the photo.

A few of these little beauties flying in the garden over the last week.

Pleasantly surprised to come across Holly bushes still full of the beautiful red (but poisonous) berries close to the Lagoon at Porteau Cove Provincial Marine Park

I love this ice cream set from Dollmofee!!!! Thank you one thousand times, dear Mavis, for making this gorgeous set for Blythe!!!! HUGS!

A young holly sat in the dip of the ancient earthwork of Grimms Ditch and meets up with a bunch of young beech. An almost tender arm reaches out to greet her! Taken in Barnes's Grove on a very chilly morning. I love the playful nature of the trees that line the ditch, each time I visit there are always more scenes to uncover.
