Butterflies and Moths 2023

Excellent Mr Kes. I too hadn't seen a Common Blue until last year when I went to my sister's in Buxton. She lives next to St.John's Cavern, and in the woods there was an area for butterflies, and there were loads of them! I was in my element snapping away ... . I am also on the, 'I haven't seen any fritilaries yet', list ...  but we live in hope.

Jersey Tiger Moth:

I think this is a Common Grass Veneer Moth .... but I am open to offers ...

Wow the detail is superb BD ;-)

Thank you Linda. It was in a glass tumbler. I caught it in my lounge, took a few shots, then let it go outside ... 

I very briefly considered catching a huge garden spider that visited last night to take some pics....screamed for hubby instead lol

On buddleia nice, I guess they are daylight moths then. Will have to look out for them, never seen one! Great shot though.  

Thanks Mr K :)

I have been having trouble transferring videos from my holiday. Most Photos are ok although I’m still having trouble transferring (all ) of them but it’s mainly just videos I’m having a problem with at the moment Iv been able to transfer more photos than videos iv been able to transfer one or two before but I havnt been able to transfer amy more since I’m still trying to transfer the video of the butterfly on my hand but it’s taking a long time cause I’m trying to find out what the problem is but once iv found out what the problem is that is making it difficult to transfer videos exspeacialy that one I will send the butterfly video like I said
