Field Trip - Bramfield Park Woods - 01/08/19
Back to Bramfield on the 1st of August, and the other side of the road this time, the damper more grassy part with less mature trees.
The day had been very nice indeed and by the afternoon the conditions turned extremely muggy and perfect mothing weather.
There was a brief shower driving to the site, and as always thought I would be in for a wet session, so rain guards were adorned and cables wrapped in shopping bags!
Luckily that was the only rain all night and it stayed cloudy until packing up time at 2am if a little breezy.
Highlights were, 6 species of Ypsolopha, headed by the rare Ypsolopha vittella, 5x Gypsy Moths (a new macro for me). And two species that have be baffled, and that will be gen det soon.
With close to 180 species, this goes down in history as my highest ever August catch, probably owing to the muggy conditions and being just on the cusp of the new month.
Here is the total list.
Macro Moths : 105 species
Micro Moths : 73 species
Total : 178 species

Just building with the new pieces. What do you think?--Really should have taken more pictures of this.

Dick Mitsch's new little tugboat of his own design, Sea-weed, Jr., is 10’ 9” long with a beam of 4’ 9”
I got it from E-bay for $40. the description said it was from the "Edwardian" period so I assume it's from the early 1900s and from Britian.
I always love a small diorama toy set with tiny figures and this set fits the bill perfectly! Physically I am not a child anymore (haha!) but I can still play with this set for hours! This set was released circa 1997.
Formation en micro-jardinage de l’Association du personnel de la FAO Sénégal à l’arrière-cour de la Représentation sous le parrainage du projet «Capitalisation de la technologie des microjardins de la Ville de Dakar». Pendant la première phase, la formatrice est revenue sur l’origine du micro-jardinage créé par le Colombien César Marulanda avant d’expliquer les compositions et le rôle du substrat utilisé, les différents types de graines, les techniques de repiquage et d’arrosage, l’utilité des éléments nutritifs comme le compost, ainsi que la protection des cultures contre maladies et parasites, avec l’utilisation de pesticides. La seconde phase a permis au personnel de passer à la pratique en semant, sur les tables de culture, plusieures espèces dont la laitue, l’aubergine, le poivron, la tomate, etc. ©FAO/Ousseynou Diop

Using Adafruit PIR sensor and Neopixel 'thru' LEDs. The nice thing about the LEDs is that you get full RGB for two leds with one digital line. The LEDs are BIG and bright! The PIR sensors are really 'no fuss'.
My first micro-scale Blacktron ship. I plan on making a full minifig scale (Or minifig illusion scale) someday. This one is pretty much 1/6th scale.
"As Selected for the Design Centre London" sticker. Yes, in 1971 an award was given to the designer of this turntable. After that some of the last Hydraulic Reference made by the Transcriptors before they moved to Ireland have this sticker on the lid.

A micro-torch. Currently these seem to be sold as "creme brulee" cooking accessories, this one served me to do medium sized soldering jobs (and shrink-tube) when I was a mechanic working my way through college.

The tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is a plant in the Solanaceae or nightshade family, as are its close cousins tobacco, chili peppers, potato, and eggplant. The tomato is native to Central, South, and southern North America from Mexico to Peru. It is a perennial, often grown outdoors in temperate climates as an annual, typically reaching to 1–3 m (3 to 10 ft) in height, with a weak, woody stem that often vines over other plants.
The leaves are 10–25 cm long, odd pinnate, with 5–9 leaflets on petioles[1], each leaflet up to 8 cm long, with a serrated margin; both the stem and leaves are densely glandular-hairy. The flowers are 1–2 cm across, yellow, with five pointed lobes on the corolla; they are borne in a cyme of 3–12 together. The word tomato derives from a word in the Nahuatl language, tomatl. The specific name, lycopersicum, means "wolf-peach" (compare the related species S. lycocarpum, whose scientific name means "wolf-fruit", common name "wolf-apple").
Early history
A variety of heirloom tomatoes.According to Andrew F Smith's The Tomato in America,[2] the tomato probably originated in the highlands of the west coast of South America. Although Smith notes there is no evidence the tomato was cultivated or even eaten before the Spanish arrived, this thesis is also questionable. Other researchers have pointed out that many other fruits in continuous cultivation in Peru are not present in the very limited historical record. Much horticultural knowledge was lost after the arrival of Europeans.
There is a competing hypothesis that says the tomato, like the word "tomato", originated in Mexico, where one of the two apparently oldest "wild" types grows. It is entirely possible that domestication even arose in both regions independently. Diversity data suggests the center of diversity for wild tomatoes is located in Peru, while the that of cultivated tomatoes, in Mexico. Thus, it can be hypothesized that wild tomatoes were introduced from Peru to Mexico, where they were domesticated.
In any case, by some means the tomato migrated to Central America. Maya and other peoples in the region used the fruit in their cooking, and it was being cultivated in southern Mexico and probably other areas, by the 16th century. It is thought that the Pueblo people believed those who witnessed the ingestion of tomato seeds were blessed with powers of divination. The large, lumpy tomato, a mutation from a smoother, smaller fruit, originated and was encouraged in Central America. Smith states this variant is the direct ancestor of some modern cultivated tomatoes.
Two modern tomato cultivar groups, one represented by the Matt's Wild Cherry tomato, the other by currant tomatoes, both originate by recent domestication of the wild tomato plants apparently native to eastern Mexico.
Just a little sketch I put together in LDD. Kinda resembles the ship that flies around the Classic Space logo.
