Advection Frost

Dipladenia flower about to unfurl

Spotted on my weekly transect walk at King's Meadow Reserve in Nottingham (UK) - the only sighting on an uninspiring cool, breezy day (0203).

From a palm tree that produces small coconut like fruit. The trunk and fronds are covered with these thorns. They are up to six inches long and extremely sharp. The theme "tip" for today's Looking Close on Friday group inspired this photo.

Disgusting !!!!! - Fly tipping in Red Beck Valley

 

A lovely little valley and then some ********* come and dump this over a wall ......

Another slide restoration from the 1990s, this one showing the waste from slate mining in Wales.

 

Today of course, such waste is a valuable asset with many uses.

Looking close...on Friday!:-)

The subject is tip . . .

SUMMER VISITOR, to the region, observation tips, visit almost any large reedbed in southern England, and you should hear a sharp tche call, and if your very lucky they occasionally clamber up the reed stems to sing. .............

Am short of images to show at the moment, so am afraid the quality is coming down, must try harder!...............

Mechanical pencil tip. A familiar item to me and used everyday.

This male Orange Tip was taking a few minutes rest on his favourite sprig of Hawthorn, from defending his patch. Orange Tip season seems to be almost over. A shame as I love to see them in spring, and this was a bumper year for them.

Anthocharis cardamines (OrangeTip) is a small butterfly belonging to the Pieridae family. They emerge in early April. The males can be easily recognized by the orange tips of their wings which the females don't possess. They can be found throughout Europe and temperate Asia as far as China.

Green Bees don't care about the petal tips, they don't have pollen or nectar on offer

Sorry, can't show the purple tip, its on the inside, although with butterflies its called the upper side.

 

Update: iNaturalist's ID seems to be: diverse white/appias epaphia contracta www.inaturalist.org/observations/10243925

 

Eastern-tailed Blue butterfly taking nectar from a White Clover floret in deep grass.

 

As I understand things, the eye-spots and tail-like appendages are designed to mimic the insect's head. All in the hope that a predator attack there and saving the life of the butterfly. Seems to work. I've encountered specimens with that part of their wing clipped by what appears to be a bird's beak.

 

Common though not abundant, this year.

Captured for Macro Mondays theme: tea.

On an errand today I had the feeling it might be worth taking the camera. Just as I was about to head back I saw this little beauty resting up on some brambles.

 

Despite the blown out areas I do like taking shots of these backlit as the orange just glows.
