Is the pressure of the mating season having an adverse effect on you Mr Squirrel, calm down old boy before you turn into a feral one.

Now that sounds downright perverted. Even if you are a squirrel that likes moths

Hey Eichhörnchen, the Massachusetts Audubon Society says you can go get stuffed.

Thanks for that. I found the Small Blue on the chalk downland on the IOW where we went on our honeymoon. Not so scarce in England, you see.

A butterfly I'd love to see in this country (even more than the Purple Emperor) is the fragile, wraith-like Wood White. Very scarce, believe it or not, and only found in a few ancient places:

Moira will love those embroidery moths... I can see her taking that up and she'd be good at it too.

Default Small Skipper

Moira photographed this when out walking along the riverbank last Sunday:



There is a very, very slim chance it could have been an 'Essex Skipper', since the two are virtually identical but for the antenna-tips, which are different colours underneath.
