    I can mention that this is the same mountain range that the bronze age bow was found a while ago.

    Was pleased to see several marbled white butterflies today.

    Stupidity got us into this mess. Why can't it get us out?

    Also ran into this. Well, not literally, as I braked in time. Had to talk myself out of having a go at it with my new hunting catty though...

    That is a lovely picture of the flattened orb weaver, Nuctenea umbratica. Very common on buildings and fences, but not often seen as they spend the day in narrow crevices.

    She's rather nice.

    The pic 'icon' will only work with the URL for the actual picture, not the page that it is hosted on.

    so pasting this link...

    http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7253/7...6f5e8e94_c.jpg

    ...into that box gets you the above embeded image. You can also type [img] before the image URL and [/img] after the URL to get the same result.

    Nice pic, where is that?

    From last week MTb riding on Les Deux Alpes, and wish I had my camera out today, saw an Osprey munching a fish on the big rock on the land side of Eilean Gorm on Loch Ard.

    15th wedding anniversary yesterday. Her medal didn't turn up, just like last year, so today we went for a little day trip. Ended up on the Hay Bluff, where I took this.

    Nice to get a day without haze, so the view was stunning, and my picture doesn't do it justice at all.
