Out & About.

Six-spot Burnet Moth.

After a somewhat soggy morning the sun came out...and so did I. We headed for Moore Nature reserve.....mostly for a stroll, so it was really nice to spot some butterflies flitting by. There was also an abundance of caterpillers, which I later found out were Cinabar Moth caterpillers, very distinctive in colouring and they seemed to be everywhere...this is when I came across the Six-spot Burnet Moth, I thought this was unusal but apparently these moths are day fliers as well as night.

Yet another washed out morning but a sunny late afternoon....spent at Inner Marsh farm. It was really relaxing and peaceful and I enjoyed taking these images of the Black-tailed Godwits still in their lovely summer plummage, a gorgeous rusty red colour as the evening sun winked on them.
Young brood.
