Patch. 4, Oh No, Not Them Again...


It is a truth universally acknowledged that the Backward Birder will presage warmer weather with pictures of assorted moffs.


Also flowers.



Maybe other arthropods, as well.




Yeah, no excape.

Brown-banded Carder Bee [or just odd Common*]
on one of those great big flower things


Red And Black Rhopalid
[what a name]

These are related to Firebugs, which are an actual thing and apparently live on the frickin' Orestone!! I NEED to find one....

Ahem.

Damned Elusive

Musk Storksbill

Hedgerow Cranesbill

Buff-tailed Bumblebee.
[But it's got a white tail?!?]
[It's a worker. They do. So now we know.] 
[[And knowing is half the battle!]]


Hedge Woundwort



Ok, so you're expecting moffs.
Not great pictures of very common species, sitting at funny angles on walls [and ceilings, sometimes even unlucky cars...].

I do have some.

No, really.
Slow start but we have some.

Just not yet.



Yeah, you've got to wait for the next one.


Or the one after.

Or...

Well, I'm a bit behind. [[What's new?]]
Stuff happens, you know?

Anyways,

Be Seeing You...


[[* Gingerness of thorax hair, yellowness of hair around that, and bands on abdomen do indicate BBC, and it is in range here...?? ]]
