You’ve been seeing very large #bumblebees on the wing for the past while. Why? Okay I’ll tell you why in this quick thread if you promise to #repost as the more people who know that these are queens the more likely that someone will help some out meaning more colonies next year. Deal? 1/15 #bees

In other insect news from my garden, the Large White butterflies (I think) have found my nasturtiums! Usually they find them a lot earlier but the plants have been poor this year with the drought/heatwaves. #butterflyphotography #caterpillar #ukgardening #insects

A large white butterfly caterpillar with a yellow and black spotted body and a yellow stripe from head to tail end eating the edge of a nasturtium leaf with other leaves and spent red nasturtium flowers out of focus in the background.

A pearly-winged Box Tree Moth... in my moth catching box! This flew into my kitchen, had to go online to look it up as it wasn't in any of my UK books. It's an invasive species from Asia, first recorded in 2007 in Kent (I'm in Yorkshire). Very pretty but unwelcome to box growers. #moths #mothphotos

A close-up photo of a box tree moth temporarily caught in a plastic box. Its wings are white semi-translucent, pearly and iridescent with a dark coffee-brown thick border around the front and outer edges. The body is long and the same brown colour with thin pearly bands and the antennae held backwards over the body. It is resting with two right legs extended to the front and side of the box.

Taken the same day as my earlier dahlia photo in equally poor conditions, but this taller one is a beautiful deep burgundy red colour. The variety is Arabian Night. I must try and get a better lit shot. #dahlias #flowerphotography #ukgardening #bloomscrolling

A photograph of my dahlia flower, the variety is Arabian Night. The background is a brick wall, dark brown wooden fencing and distant red flowers to the left, pale blue to the right with the mid green leaves of the dahlia close to the flower. The flower itself is a deep A magenta-burgundy red with layered and semi-rolled pointed petals. Above it and to the left is a closed purple bud with greenish-yellow streaks from the same plant.

Poor lighting but I'm stunned by and so in love with the huge blousy flower on my Café au Lait dahlia this year. #dahlias #flowerphotography #ukgardening #bloomscrolling

A photo of my Café au Lait dahlia with a dark brown wooden fence and green leaves as the backdrop. The dahlia flower itself is at least 7 inches across and has many layered pointed end petals earning it the name of a fluffy dinnerplate flower, it looks a creamy beige colour but on closer inspection there are also hints of peach and blush pink.

Drone photography creating a wonderful illusion! Shooting during early morning or late afternoon with the low sun is necessary to project shadows that are elongated and darkly defined! The black cast of shadows from the giraffe are amazing.

Seeing as people keep reminding me that it's Fathers Day... this is me with mine circa 1976. He died in 1999 aged 66. Judging by his expression this is a self-timed photo, and I feel it's possibly Hallowe'en and we were just about to go out into the night with our hand-carved turnip Jack o' Lantern

Ruby the Black Copper Marans ~ 1st May 2021 to 15th June 2026 I lost Ruby today. I was hopeful she'd pull through but it was simply her time to go and old age is quite the persistent opponent. She had a peaceful and comfortable passing today around 6pm. #chickens #chickenkeeping

A photograph of my Black Copper Marans hen, Ruby, who died today peacefully. The photograph shows a large chicken walking from left to right and turning her head to look at the camera. She is mostly black feathered with a few ginger tipped feathers around her neck and throat. She has bright red flappy wattles and an upright red comb.
