I have precious few shots of the Toledo, Peoria and Western on the West End. I am sad to say I just didn't give them much attention. I nabbed them several times on the Santa Fe between Fort Madison and Lomax in the late 1990's, but like a true dumbass, I never gave chase to their unique trains.
A varied consist of 2 former Santa Fe GP20s and a former CNW GP7 would have made for a great chase on the old TP&W.
Seems to have been a good year for these! Not managed to get one on a cuckoo flower.... so some hedge garlic will have to do! :-)

Grateful to be gifted a Chinon CS c. 1970 and decided to give it a go, with an adapter for a battery/meter, a roll of TriX, and some Diafine. Gear performed pretty well on a cloudy day in SoCal. Always nice to be the go to person when someone finds some nice equipment, starting with, "Do they make film anymore?"
Taken Magdalen Hill Down, Hampshire. One of the earliest UK spring butterflies to be found on the wing. Located a number of these roosting up while clouds passed overhead.

Saw this a while back now , 10/04/2019 in fact and it was at Warnham Nature Reserve . At the time I was not aware of the type of butterfly but have now read up and it seems it is a herald of spring - so always good to see !
The Orange-tip is a true sign of spring, being one of the first species to emerge that has not overwintered as an adult. The male and female of this species are very different in appearance. The more-conspicuous male has orange tips to the forewings, that give this butterfly its name. These orange tips are absent in the female and the female is often mistaken for one of the other whites, especially the Green-veined White or Small White. This butterfly is found throughout England, Wales and Ireland, but is somewhat-local further north and especially in Scotland. In most regions this butterfly does not form discrete colonies and wanders in every direction as it flies along hedgerows and woodland margins looking for a mate, nectar sources or foodplants. More northerly colonies are more compact and also more restricted in their movements.
Anthocharis cardamines ssp. cardamines
The species was first defined in Linnaeus (1758) as shown here (type locality: Sweden). The nominate subspecies has not been recorded in the British Isles.
Anthocharis cardamines ssp. britannica
This subspecies was first defined in Verity (1908) (type locality: England).
This subspecies is found throughout the British Isles, with the exception of Ireland and the Isle of Man. Williams (1916) disagrees with a particular aspect of the definition: "The extension of the black apical markings to the anal angle, however, is surely not so common in British specimens as to justify its use as a character differentiating British from continental specimens. I have only two specimens agreeing exactly with the description".

Hull Strawberries
Use a straw to hull strawberries (it’s fate!). Press a straw through the bottom of a strawberry until it breaks through the top and takes the hull—the white part of the center of the berry—with it. Remove any remaining leaves with your fingers.

Loved the sunlight catching the tips of the antlers on this one. Early morning yesterday, Bushey Park - so many idiots around so we didn't stay long - brought the numbers down!!! lol Seriously some people haven't got a clue how to behave with a camera in their hand!!!
Found a couple of fresh female Orange-tips in the lane outside the house on Thursday however due to the current Hobby obsession, which shows little sign of abating, I didn't take a look at the shots.
Can go as Large as you like with this.
The last of the views of this species that I like to photograph. This is a female.
The photo was taken om my estate on my way for a walk by the canal.

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.

Not sure of the year, either 78, 79, or 1980. Dean Talafous, and Phil Esposito look on.
Orange Tip - Garden, Hullbridge, Essex. First two are same image cropped in portrait and landscape the third is same b/fly with different background. This little fella stayed all night and flew off in morning once warmed up.

The only other macrolepidopteran caterpillars I found yesterday: a buff-tip (Phalera bucephala Linnaeus, 1758, Notodontidae) nest on oak. These caterpillars were certainly shot a thousand times before, but I thought contributing another photo was adequate to their nice appearance.
