FIRST BUTTERFLIES OF 2016

Well I have managed to get a head start and ahead of replacing my outdoor camera with a new one, video of that coming up.

Last year was pretty dire for photographs, filming, getting out on my bike much and mostly due to the weather and partly because I was spending a lot of time and money helping someone close to me, see my corruption blog on that one.

So I am short several tools.

Towards the end of last year and around the autumn time my trusty Sony Cybershot DSC-HX300 with its 50x zoom lens took a tumble or five. Off a contraption attached to my belt because something came undone on the bottom of the camera. A small brass nipple if you must know.

At first I was relieved because a few quick tests and the camera was working fine. Unfortunately the next few times I went out where I did long shots or filming, of birds mostly, and I noticed lesser quality in the photos and vibration on filming.

Oops!

Anyway, just prior to purchasing the new camera I did get out with the Sony and did capture a few things.

Holly Blue Butterflies, Brimstone Butterflies, an Orange Tip Butterfly and some Wild Primroses ...

I AM BACK! WITH A BRIMSTONE BUTTERFLY

The early start to what I hope to be a busy year?

Well it is going to be a busy year when it comes down to my corruption blog as a humongous great battle that is shocking, heart wrenching and two decades long is about go come to an end in a big way that will act like the catalyst of catalysts to everything I do on a rather big way. In the not too distant future by all accounts.

Still...I have to concentrate on what I started and get some work in!

So here is a Brimstone Butterfly and a few other early Spring, 2015, pictures and videos.

These always gone unnoticed by me until this year...do not aks me what they are called, lol.

A Bee-Fly ... thingey! ...

Few emerging Bee Orchids...
