Large Skipper Butterfly

Sunshine and showers, well, it didn't. A nice period of sunshine for 9 gorgeous days, you can't ask for more. Yes I can, at least a month or more.


Brilliant

  13. Bob, great macros!
    Hope your weather is nice for all of August! It would be great if the tide has turned and it's summer again!
    Ours has turned back to summer and not to hot, so that's just right!
    Cheers
