Re: Goldie M
Thanks Mike, Nick, Bugboy and Wurzel, I sent the photo's to my neighbours and they were really pleased sent me an e-mail back saying their on the look out each day now for it
I'll have to wait while next week now before I get out again, but if the weather picks up like it did today I just might see the Holly Blue again, my neighbours are going to signal me Orange Tips next I hope Goldie

HI Goldie,
Back to the cool wind down here . If you click on the Large White image the Butterflies will be easier
to make out , I did not have time to get closer.
Best wishes,
TREVOR.

Re: Goldie M
Yes, well done with that Holly Blue, Goldie. I've found that you just have to be patient - they quite often fly off for a while but come back to the same place they started from.

Re: Goldie M
Thanks Millerd,Trevor and Maximus, for your postings, I'm sat here at present and for the next couple of days I've to take things easy, I had my eye operation on Friday and it must have gone well because when I looked in the mirror this morning I shrieked at the sight of the wrinkles The Sun has come out now and my husbands nearly had to tie me down to stop me going out
They've forecast nice weather for next week so I'll have to be patient, but when I've seen all the great photo's today I can't wait
Now I'm having the computer taken off me so I better finish off, next time I post I hope to have some thing to show, ( hope fully)

Re: Goldie M
Thank you Butterflysaurus, this weather should start to bring them out now for you, hope you get some photos soon.
With the weather being so nice and I was okay I just had to venture out, so I went to Hall-Lee-Brook for a quick look round yesterday and again today, I was only there for a short time but I'm glad to say I finally got to see the Orange tip, 4 in all but no photos yet they had other things on their mind I did manage my first Brimstone also a Large White and a Speckled Wood so things are happening here at last
The Speckled Wood, looked like it's wing was stuck on one side so may be it hadn't been out long, it was great to see them.Goldie

Re: Goldie M
Great to see things really moving up there now Goldie - you'll soon be out looking for Dukes Great Large White shot - they were something of a rarity last year.

Re: Goldie M
You're gradually catching up, Goldie - you've trumped me with your female Large White - I've yet to see this delightful specimen thus far in 2015!

Re: Goldie M
Thanks Wurzel and David, I couldn't believe it either when I saw the LW, you usually see the Small White or the Green Veined before them so I was pleasantly surprised Goldie

Seems like Large Whites may be enjoying a renaissance in 2015 after last year's virtual no show.Goldie M wrote:Thanks Wurzel and David, I couldn't believe it either when I saw the LW, you usually see the Small White or the Green Veined before them so I was pleasantly surprised Goldie
Good to see they're putting in an appearance further north too!

Re: Goldie M
HI Goldie,
I love your Orange Tip image,mine so far were taken on a very windy day , so much so that they couldn't
open their wings flat.
Perhaps another day,

Re: Goldie M
Hi Goldie,
nice to see you get your first Orange-tip, and a lovely photo as well.
I hope everything is well with your eye, that the operation was a success, and that you can soon loose the eye-patch.
All the best, Nick.

Re: Goldie M
Thanks Nick, I've a few hiccups with the eye but it's much better thank you.
Hi ! Wurzel, your bound to get better shots soon if the weather mellows a bit
Your right David good things do happen if you wait long enough, trouble is having the Patience
I was lucky Trevor, I went to the less windy places and this one landed right in front of me
I thought I'd put a few more photos in has I was in a hurry last night , it's suppose to rain later today , this morning all the bird baths were frozen and my tulips had all bowed their heads nearly to the ground, but the Sun is out again and things are back to normal thank fully. Goldie

Re: Goldie M
HI Goldie,
Hope you get to see some Pearls. Here's a little tip for you, if the day you go is sunny with some cloud, watch
them flying in the sunshine, and where they land. if it then clouds over you can approach them quite
easily. If it's a hot day forget it!. They don't usually fly when it's dull.
Best wishes ,
TREVOR.

Re: Goldie M
Hi Goldie, glad you got your Orange-tip, nice photo
It was a bit nippy here again this morning, the car windscreen had a thin layer of ice on it when I went to work.
Cheers,
Neil.
