Bobj 236 Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 A couple of blue tigers (tirumala mamata) Literally thousands upon thousands are emerging in the National Park behind my place. It is an amazing sight to walk through and watch clouds of these beautiful butterflies rise from under the leaves of the trres. Cheers, Bobj. Link to post Share on other sites

Janet 1 Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 If I had more time I'd probably try a moth trap of an evening, instead of just letting them into the kitchen, like this one last year. Ayjay, what is that moth? It's beautiful! Janet My flickr photostream.... Link to post Share on other sites
ayjay 476 Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 Ayjay, what is that moth? It's beautiful! Janet To the best of my knowledge Janet, it's a *Light Emerald*, (Campaea margaritata), but I'm ready to be wrong. ...........and speaking of Emeralds, here's an Emerald Damselfly (40mm maximum length, wingspan 50mm) Link to post Share on other sites
Janet 1 Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Just for fun! Seen in a model railway display cabinet at the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway. Train sets were never like this when I were a nipper! She's staring at that shovel in a very suggestive way! Janet My flickr photostream.... Link to post Share on other sites

Bird was very wet Den Edited August 12, 2010 by poledark "When through the woods and forest glades I wanderAnd hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees;When I look down from lofty mountain grandeur,And hear the brook, and feel the breeze;and see the waves crash on the shore,Then sings my soul.................. for all you Spodders. https://youtu.be/XYxsY-FbSic Link to post Share on other sites
Bobj 236 Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Nice catch Bob must have been great to see. Well done Janet, looks like he is saying "what do you want " LOL Mate, they are even more abundant now. This photo is of an area approximately 35 x25 cm (14 x 10 inches) Imagine walking for 200 metres through the National Park? Cheers, Bobj. Link to post Share on other sites
