What's Buzzin' or Flying Near You Today..? MK 3..

Aye, that be the one. Thank You HsuH!!! I've never seen one before, or noticed it maybe.

 

I've been looking through my book to ID the butterfly Shiney...can't find it...but it's a beauty

 

It's a Comma butterfly.

 

Red Admiral on the Buddleia today



Jenny

 

One of my favourite small birds. There was a family of these longtail tits visiting our garden and I spent a happy half hour photoing them.

 

Wonderful HsuH,
still in their toddler's clothes but looking fine,
thank you,
Jenny

 

Do you see me??


Gatekeeper and brimstone resting together


and brimstone loves crocosmia it would seem

 

What amazing camouflage the Brimstone has - I couldn't suss it out in the first picture,
nice one,
Jenny

 

I quite like her red eyeliner

MrH saw one land among the flowers but he couldn't find it while I was fetching the camera, so we brushed the plants around him, and it flew out from right in front of his eyes .

 

Neighbour was here today sawing down an ancient Pine for me as it was past it's sell by date. While picking up the branches I heard a very loud buzzing noise and then saw a Giant Wood Wasp land on a pile of the pine shavings. Perhaps it was attracted by the lovely Pine aroma. k

Thank god I know they don't sting and the huge spike on the end of it's "bottom" is for boring into trees not me, otherwise I would have probably broken the sound barrier hot footing it in any direction other than it's. The photo is off the net not mine,I didn't have my camera on me when it paid a visit and despite knowing they are harmless I'm not too sure I'd fancy 1 on my finger!
