Today's #MothOfTheDay is a nationally scarce micro #moth. But one did visit the moth box Friday night. If you see spindle covered in massive webs, it is likely to be a common, indeterminate form of yponomeuta spindle ermine. This one, with grey suffusion, however, is not common at all:

SCARCE SPINDLE ERMINE
yponomeuta irrorella

#moths #mothsandbutterflies #MothsMatter #nature #wildlife #britishwildlife #lepidoptera #entomology #insect #garden #summer #conservation #biodiversity #alttext

Side on shot of 0.5cm moth on a wooden outdoors table. It faces right. It is long and tubular, holding its wing very tight to its abdomen It is white with a number of random black dots, particularly more so running in a line along the outside wing edge close to the table surface, but they are generally all over. Its distinctive markings from other yponomeuta species are areas of grey suffusion, a faint spot on its back, a larger smudge in the middle of the wing, and again greying to the fringed termen (back wing edge furthest away from its head). It has two coiled orange galeae (like a thin, long tongue) for feeding and long white antennae which it holds close to its body. It has a tiny head which pinhead eyes (right side only visible in this picture) and two palps (lips) which curve up from its mouth. It also has thin white legs.

Petals in the Sun

#SilentSunday #StillerSonntag #BloomScrolling #Blossom #Garden #Photography #Photo #NaturePhotography #Roses

A vibrant, close-up photograph of a fully open pink rose. The delicate petals are bathed in bright, warm sunlight, highlighting subtle gradients of soft blush pink, deeper almost magenta edges, and a warm, golden-yellow hue radiating from the very center of the bloom. The soft, overlapping layers of the petals create a sense of depth and intricate texture, filling nearly the entire frame.

At the very heart of the flower, the intricate inner structures are sharply focused. A dense cluster of delicate, spindly yellow stamens arches outward from the center, each tipped with dark, prominent brown anthers covered in pollen. The intense sunlight casts soft shadows of these stamens onto the smooth, pale surface of the surrounding petals

The photographer's watermark in the corner reads "Paul Jackson"

My birdbath garden at mom's old cottage. Bumblebees loved the globe thistle, fritillary butterflies swarmed the coneflowers, and the red bee-balm was guaranteed to draw ruby-throat hummingbirds. There's a serviceberry tree to the left of the glider and a witch hazel tree in the border behind it. A mail-order ginseng plant liked this location and reseeded itself. Photo by my mom.

I'm not superstitious, but I'm still always very happy when I discover a four-leaf clover or a ladybug.

A lucky day handmade watercolor painting: https://karen-kaspar.pixels.com/featured/a-lucky-day-karen-kaspar.html

A lucky day is a watercolor painting in landscape format painted by artist Karen Kaspar
The watercolor painting is built up of many layers of different bright fresh green tones and shows the abstracted detail of a wildflower meadow with many four-leaf clovers. On one of the clovers sits a red ladybird with black dots. Due to the strong complementary contrast between red and green, this little lucky ladybird is the focus of the picture and attracts attention. The four-leaf clovers and the ladybird are symbols of luck. I wish you that this picture brings a lot of luck and joy into your home.

I've been taking pics of seedlings in our mutual aid garden and labeling them in our signal chat so that folks know what we might want to keep versus what's okay to weed out. Thought it might also make a short but useful thread.

First up, marigolds. I can never tell whether a marigold seedling is one of the ginormous ones or petite, but it's always identifiable as some kind of marigold once it's got its first true leaves (as opposed to cotyledon leaves).

#garden #gardening #bloomscrolling

Marigold seedlings. Two seedlings with distinctive red stems and leaves that feather out with two symmetrical prongs and one long prong at the tip. Behind them is straw for mulch. They're in a bright blue container. My left thumb and forefinger is visible on the left side, holding the plants apart.

Today I was taking some yard waste down to the compost pile and I encountered this cute fawn doing its best to remain perfectly still. I like that it can fit through the fence but none of its predators can. Today it was able to relax safely in the shade. Its only disturbance was this clumsy oaf dragging his yard waste through the woods. I kept an eye on it from our deck. I hope momma recognizes the safety of our yard and returns her baby tomorrow.
