Nomad - Iron Maiden

In an attempt to sort out what is left of my life and start much longed for nomadic wanderings, I have just spent a day and a night down in deepest East Hampshire seeking advice and help from my dear friends Paul and Tess. Some excellent in conversation, including the mandatory mickey taking, I not only learnt a lot but also made a couple of likely 'life changing' decisions. I feel the time is nigh! There was little time for wildlife while on that visit but on the way back to Parley, via the New Forest, an attempt was made for Goshawk, with the heavy rain starting as I reached the site, Mandarin, which were all but obscured by trees and Woodlark which was singing but not seen. A few images then from a couple of days before, starting with the Moth Traps.
FROSTED GREEN and
BRINDLED PUG
have been caught already this year, while
EARLY TOOTH-STRIPED
is a new Insect for the property and
NUT-TREE TUSSOCK
the first of the year.
Nicely Marked
CLOUDED DRAB
FOLDED-WINGED CRANEFLY
CRANEFLY
ménage à trois 
also graced the traps.
Just when you thought that was all the Moths
OAK NYCTEOLINE

thought to be
Psychoda surcoufi
SPIDER
Pisaura mirablis
The first clutch of
