Messing about the eastern side of t'Moor last weekend saw me getting a little soggy, and a lot brainblasted [pesky head, attacking whilst I'm out having fun. It just won't do...] but I also saw some very lovely things.
Such as;
Marsh Fri-
Wait, there's something
wrong with this photo....
That's better!
Yes, much better.
Marsh Fritillaries belong on Marsh Orchids [don't look too closely...]
Now, the underwing...
...is arguably even better.
Not just MF. Here's MS!
Mother Shipton, that is.
Sometimes, just sometimes...
...a Green Hairstreak...
...will be really helpful!
Not just motherflies, either.
Beautiful Demoiselle
Both flavours
Likewise Broad-bodied Chasers
Female ovipositing!
A journey of non-specific distance later...
Spotted Flycatcher
Redstart FF
Female
[different territory]
Back to the wet stuff;
Orchid time
Showing a fair
bit of variety
in form and colour
But most of all, a day of these;
Peatier one
Just caught it!
My head might not have let off before the early hours, but it was worth it!
:D
Be Seeing You...
[[ In my defence, none of the orchids shown have spotted leaves. And they're all in a marsh. 😇 ]]
