Happy weekend!

 

I shall be off Flickr for a few days from the weekend.

Beachy Head, Sussex

 

Although, once a widespread and relatively common woodland butterfly in southern England, the Large Tortoiseshell has been considered extinct in Britain throughout my lifetime. Occasional sightings since the 1960's were deemed migrants from the continent or, more often, released captive bred stock.

 

However, with records along the south coast slowly increasing over the last few years (14 already this year), and confirmed breeding in at least 2 Sussex locations last year, it seems re-colonisation from the continent is a real possibility. In the meantime, it remains a very rare sight in the UK, so it was great to catch up with this one on Good Friday.

Large White Butterfly in my garden

Pieris brassicae or Large White Butterfly shows its underwing markings while sipping nectar from a Yellow Rattle (Rhinanthus minor) flower.

Pieris brassicae, the large white, also called cabbage butterfly, cabbage white, cabbage moth (erroneously), or in India the large cabbage white, is a butterfly in the family Pieridae.

This lanky snow white Egret is slightly smaller than Grey Heron and difficult to distinguish from slightly smaller Median Egret.

Pieris brassicae, the large white, also called cabbage butterfly, cabbage white, cabbage moth (erroneously), or in India the large cabbage white, is a butterfly in the family Pieridae.

After mating the pair remain in tandem so that the male can guard the female and stop other males trying to mate with her as they prepare for or rest during oviposition.

Taken at Wolseley Nature Centre, Staffordshire.

Do you remember my photo 'A work in progress' ?

Well, I finally finished the basic pattern. It is a very large extension of this origami-tessellation, called 'Start'.

 

It is the first time I ever folded such a large grid!

Now the fun part begins, adding the final pattern by altering the magical hexagons ;-))

 

Folded from a hexagon 43cm, grid 1:128, 'Anett'-paper.

 

If you are interested to see more, have a look at my tessellation album Origami - Tessellation Progression".

Thanks for the visits, faves and comments its greatly appreciated.

This Large White butterfly (Pieris brassicae) at the end of summer has a few nicks from the wings , but still looks fabulous.

On Buddleia in the garden 09 Sep 2021

Une saison remarquable lors de la migration des limicoles dans la baie Missisquoi, Des rares visiteurs ont pu être observés, comme ce phalarope à bec large. Un lifer pour moi !

  

A remarkable season during the migration of shorebirds in Missisquoi Bay, rare visitors have been observed, like the Red Phalarope. A lifer for me!

Took a long drive to the Lake District, a very cloudy, windy day so to get a clean shot of this the Large Heath made me very happy

Thank you all who fave and comment on my photo'/video's,much appreciated.And thank you all for looking.

Another one from our river bend spot, where Pips stalks the sunbaking water dragons further down the steep emankment at water's edge while far above in the towering old gums, the birdlife chatters on.

 

This higher ground is no longer left undisturbed to give me the joy of these little golden dazzlers in late afternoon.

 

Old fella fishermen are often there now, digging away on the hunt for enormous worms, leaving large pockets of uneven, bare and messy soil which turns to bog from the rain and tempts me to trip and fall over in it as I wander about with attention on the camera.

Nearly had a few woopsies ;\

 

The rest of it is now kept mown by local council at regular intervals, so I'm glad I snapped plenty of these last September.

 

Another reminder to take those pics when we see something we like - the same chance may not come 'round again.

 

Besides the watermark experiment, still sooc.

Love the colour combo's in this one, the gold against the grey.

Mother Nature is so clever..

 

Enjoy your weekend, my friends x
