Wednesday 11th July 2018







Hot and sunny day.
Frustrating day, security lights still not working and the insurance company are testing my patience. Nuff said.
              Good day for wildlife. Highlight of the day was photographing a pine hawker moth. Spotted in the hydrangea shrub close to the fir trees which apparently pine moths love as habitat.
A red admiral flew into the conservatory, first time I had seen this butterfly this year. Small white caterpillars doing a good job devouring the nasturtium leaves.
Another southern hawker dragonfly emerged from the pond today. Thirteen now seen emerged.
