Purple Emperor. Bentley Wood.04/07/2015



Travelled from Cornwall to Bentley Wood which straddles Hampshire and Wiltshire in search of the enigmatic Purple Emperor butterfly. We were very fortunate to find this male taking up minerals on one of the many paths in the wood.  It loitered there for at least two hours, occasionally flying around and through the legs of it's gathered admirers. Other highlights included good views of Goshawk over the wood. Yet another Fantastic day at Bentley!

Porth Joke Poppies



The Poppy fields at Porth Joke near Crantock on the north Cornwall coast were at their glorious best on our visit today.

Gynandromorph Silver-studded Blue. Penhale Dunes. Cornwall.



This Gynandromorph  was found among what was probably thousands of Silver-studded Blues at Penhale Dunes in Cornwall while on a field trip with the Cornwall Butterfly and Moth Society....http://www.cornwallbutterflyandmothsociety.org.uk/

Birds in Monochrome




It's been an 'age' since my last post. So decided to put this up. I have been playing around with my editing suite lately. Got inspired by this track 'Cassette' by Stumbleine..... Asked his permission to use it and this is the result.......Hope you like it!!!

To listen to Stumbleines music. Visit his facebook page.....https://www.facebook.com/stumbleineuk
