Lobster Battle.

 With very little happening for the camera in recent weeks I thought I would look back at some sessions that I didn't post for some reason last year.

My very good friend David invited me over to Battle to see some of the moths that I never get in my trap, and as I was actually quite close at the time I headed over to see my first ever Lobster Moth.

Another beauty that I haven't caught here in Seaford, but I had seen before when I saw one in Nigel's trap was the Great Prominent. This was probably even more impressive than the Lobster.

Finally, a Pale Tussock in its dark form. I have actually caught this moth in quite large numbers but rarely in the dark form, although strangely, I did get a dark one only a week or so after this visit.

As ever, my thanks to David for letting me see and photograph these beautiful moths.

Just to show I have taken the camera out a few times recently, although most days I return home without pressing the shutter!!

A Meadow Pipit that posed briefly and possibly not quite close enough.
