Common Mormon butterfly

It's not a very nice day, so here is another one from yesterdays.

Glass Wing (greta oto) butterfly

I didn't go to Mexico or Panama to get a pic of this lovely butterfly. No, I went to Symonds Yat (east). It is great to be out. But, it was a morbid day again, which made it less photogenic. They lost most of their stock, because they were cold winter, so there wasn't many butterflies. I shall go there later.

Blackcap (photographed in 2009)

Yeah, your right - it was in the spring of last year. I went to take my son for a birthday treat in the pub, he had two pints of ale, I drank one.....I'm driving! We aslo had a meal, he had a normal lasagne and I ate (vegetarian) a stilton on vegetables bake. I didn't find any stilton, but it had some cheese. Anyway, we enjoyed it.

It was taken a few days ago, it was too dark and gloomy for photography today.

Just two of the Tits (New Fancy, Forest of Dean)

I was going to stay at home because it was foggy, but I thought that if I just go upwards to the Forest, where there is a possibly some sun. And guess what, it was brilliant sunshine.
