Passengers - Mostly Autumn

 With that season little more than a fortnight away we are already seeing some changes across the board from Moth Traps to Brambles and things are looking good! The band, we will leave you to make up your own mind, but for me having seen them live at the Mean Fiddler, Charring Cross Road, London in 1997 they immediately joined the catagory of the 20 Best Bands ever seen 'Live' and there have been a few. Our only

PASSENGER MOTH
was secured here on the night of 28/09/2019
MOSTLY AUTUMN
along with the extinct (you cannot get them back)
PASSENGER PIGEON
and watching and listening to this link

could be the best 6 minutes 20 seconds you experience before the arrival of Autumn?

Of the Season
STRAW UNDERWING
(which simply will not reveal what lies beneath)
CRESCENT
and
DOTTED CLAY
were all added to the Year List while
DOR BEETLE,
complete wit paracite, wasn't new with maybe 'Second Generations' being represented by a female
DRINKER
a most delicate
MAIDEN'S BLUSH
along with another
PEACH BLOSSOM
along the hedgerows and tree-lines with some of the
ROWANs
having fallen like nine-pins, no need for the zoom as
HONEYSUCKLE
is in full bloom and look our first ripe, although we ain't tempted to try them yet,
BLACKBERRIES
with a brace of
SLOW WORMs
(this maybe qualifying for the biggest we have ever seen)?
trying to upstage yesterday's Smooth Snakes with
GUINEAFOWL
flanking the
ROSEHIPS
we end with a magical
SAWYER BEETLE
