The Beautiful People - Marilyn Manson

 Another night of blustery wind didn't help with the returns from the Moth Traps

and even full cloud cover seemed not to help but among the 216 Macro Moths of 71 species there was the return of

ORANGE SWIFT
an enormous female

BLACK ARCHES
which at first glance was thought to be something new and a
Ring-Side Seat for this

CRANE-FLY
perched on a Drinker Moth while

today's plague was provided by

FLYING ANTS

while the now well established

and ever increasing

STARLING FLOCK

commuted from roof-top to the Tennis Court Feeding Station.
A 'pass' by what could only be the Coast Guard Rescue Helicopter was a little baffling

as while it looked familiar and the Pennant Letters were the same she has undergone a
Change of Livery!

Also at home and snapped from an open window the shenanigans of the local

HOUSE SPARROWs
feeding and

DUST-BATHING
but the BEST of the day was certainly saved until last with a gang of 40+ gathering at the home of our dear friends Chloe, Loz, Ethan and Dylan for her birthday. A most tallented lady in many directions, but most particularly as an Upholsterer she has magical tallents!
Met as a result of her inquizative nature, she and a friend first encountered me monitoring the Moth Traps some 5 years ago, which certainly captivated them, and across a number of other visits the friendship grew. Since baby Dylan came along there has been no time for such things, but hopes have it that one day they will return together? So to the party:-

Thought I had met all of the

Beautiful People the Beautiful Pepole

but now I have.
The Surrogate Uncle Bagsy and Dylan,

The atmosphere was In Tents!

Let the Games Begin

maybe

but cannot remember the names

of any of them

however

an absolute privilege to be among

such company and again a Happy, Happy Birthday Chloe and Many, Many more.!

Oh to do it all again and another

huge Thank You to all of your Family and Friends for such a Welcome!!

Just an exampe of her wonderful talents she has bestowed upon me

Re-covering my Seating at home,

a GIFT portraying proper Moths and yet another

GIFT
Sleep Tight!

P.S. - However could I have forgotten to 'click' the Lady Herself now have to rely on images from past Wildlife adventures!
