The Bagsy Blog: A Horse With No Name

Saturday, 24 September 2016

Some excitement on the agenda for this Post, but firstly, as ever, the Moth Traps
in what looked like a sure sign of rain? Starting with a

First for the Year

AUTUMNAL RUSTIC
and what in days gone by may have been considered a 'late appearing'

BEAUTIFUL HOOK-TIP
but some authorities state that they are now being noted throughout September.

Two variations of
LUNAR UNDERWING

and a slightly better example than the previous migratory
GEM

Looks like the Fungus Fest has started here with a species of
LEPIOTA

as far as our daily rounds are concerned,

A small clutch of 'predated' Wood Pigeon eggs found on the final gatepost

have not been given names.

The videos are a bit of pot-luck as there has been no time

to edit or delete so must be taken as seen.
While the Horses are going to be contained alone in the area known as
The Island

their well established neighbours

were not going to let them have all of the

LIMELIGHT

The Calf

and the awkward one which would not let me pass even though
in a hurry to get back to
ANTARCTICA!
