Para Lío de Fotos: Reto 72 *Paisajes en otoño*

 

Para mi en otoño continúa la búsqueda y a veces encuentro de viejos cacharros que son parte de nuestra memoria, autos, bicicletas antiguas o viejas Vespas, ya sabéis qué tipo de Heavy Metal me gusta a mi. Ahora algunos de estos cacharros quedan aparcados tras el verano y son invadidos por hojas secas y una maleza que renace con las primeras lluvias y la bajada de temperaturas. El otoño en mi isla trae de regalo una luz distinta, más difusa, menos dura, envolvente...

Tips to Fly!! :D

 

Things to do for free on a weekend.

A few days ago I posted a female Anthocharis cardamines (Linnaeus, 1758). This one is the male of the species with the signature orange pigmentation on its wings and the origin of its common name, i.e. the orange tip.

 

Thanks a lot for stopping by, your comments and likes mean a lot to me and are very much appreciated!

Friends of mine who look at birds told me about this reserve and that it might have some interesting butterflies, so in the hot sunny weather yesterday I decided to give it a look.

I suspect it will only have common, widespread species from what I saw, though apparently purple hairstreaks are seen there. On my visit there were a few common species around.

These were the most common species seen but it is the first time this year I have photographed them with wings closed showing the beautiful pattern.

This is the first female I have seen this year. It was actually quite windy and not easy to get a clear look at this individual.

Orange Tip - Garden, Hullbridge, Essex. This one or others visited the garden all afternoon. Great to see with the whites as well.

Back Garden - "sods law" - all the days I've spent over the last couple of weeks sitting ready with the camera, only to see these guys fly through without stopping, today I was actually doing something, (I was dismantling an old garden bench for renovation) my hands were covered in WD-40 and rust, when my wife told me an Orange-tip had just landed - a quick dash indoors to wash my hands, and luckily he was still on the dandelion seed head, I managed a couple of shots but as I was moving to a better position he left. Hopefully there will be more chances.

I'm about ready to slide into warmer days, aren't you?

Felt rather privileged to stumble across this mating pair while searching for emerging damselflies on my local pond.

Yesterday I had a hot tip to find a Barn Owl that lives by the canal across the fields from us. I got up at 6.40 and went to find it ( car temp -9.5) stood in the field for a good hour until the sun came up.. not a bloody sausage !!! Will I try tomorrow??!!

The first person that says the sunrise was worth it, gets one between the eyes LOL....

Taken at Noar Hill in very unfavourable weather conditions - cloudy and windy. This was the only butterfly we saw all morning but it was fairly obliging.
