Of course we are all looking forward to every members photos and observations sometimes im able to get a photo sometimes im not but when I can’t I would like to show people the butterfly or moth I seen sometimes I might just comment when I can’t get a photo of a species for me I would probably prefer to show everyone what iv seen when I seen one rather than comment and say what iv seen and describe it and I’m good at drawing so I was wondering if it would be ok to draw a picture and send a photo of the picture of the butterfly or moth iv seen when I can’t get a photo is that ok?
I got some photos for this thread which is for 2023
I was looking for insects and invertrevretes and moths
and spotted a moth in the shed
Not the way I wanted to find my first moth of the year but never mind cause spiders need to eat aswell and it’s a lucky catch
That was taken in Hucclecote. Last year I found a moth food parcel in my birdbath At least it wasn’t a moth food parcel in my birdbath in Kingsway I havint seen any in there yet anyway. I wasn’t exspecting one in the bird bath last year at least I found one in a shed and not a bird bath so far this year. iv been looking for a moth for a couple of months so even though its not particularly alive like the one I saw last year I still saw my first moth this year so that is exiteing
