After three days of wind and rain, a sizable patch of blue sky mid morning
was all the encouragement I needed to get out for a couple of hours.
Such was my haste to make the most of the improving weather, that I later
discovered that the memory card for my camera was still at home
![Embarassed :oops:](./images/smilies/icon_redface.gif)
.
Fortunately the camera's internal memory will hold twelve images, so I needed
to be both sparing and ruthless at the same time, and delete any unsatisfactory shots.
A few Common blue shots had to go when I found a nectaring Comma, and later a
fresh looking female Wall Brown. Two Peacocks were also a welcome sight as was
a fresh Red Admiral with a large chunk of forewing wing missing.
Back at home I had to figure out how to retrieve today's shots from the camera,
which took a while, as this was the first time I have had do it, and was hopefully the last time.
Stay well all,
Trevor.
