A lovely orange visitor. We see gulf fritillaries in late summer and early autumn - they're native here. I really should plant some passionflowers for them to lay their eggs on.

#MothOfTheDay - at last the #autumn moths arrive (technically 8 days before the start, but who cares?)
SALLOW
Cirrhia icteritiaA nice lemon yellow version here, though is much differentiation in markings between specimens, some with more pinky-brown blotchings. Status: common

The Cabbage White Butterfly: Trying to Understand Something Ordinary
The Cabbage White Butterfly: Trying to Understand Something Ordinary I remember the first time I deliberately tried to identify a butterfly. I was maybe seven or eight, sitting in my relatives's garden, and this white butterfly kept landing on the vegetables. My relative said it was a cabbage white butterfly, and I remember asking her why it was called that. She said something like "because it's white and it eats cabbage," which seemed to answer the question completely at the […] -

Went back to Palomar Mountain State Park to to what shakes up there for #butterflies in September and to check out lower Doane Valley, which I haven’t seen before. There was a large orange fast flyer that caught me so off guard I forgot to turn my camera on. I think it was a Fritillary of some kind. Otherwise not unusual but nice to see stuff.

Scenes from a walk pt 2 over #SouthDowns from Glynde to Lewes.
#Butterflies, including a rarity.Not the easiest to photo with an iPhone. Not at all compliant, so quite blurry. But this isn't a photography post; it's a natural world educational one.
1) Clouded Yellow
2) Small Heath (declining species)
3) Small Copper
4) Silver-spotted Skipper (rare chalk downland species)#nature #wildlife #naturalworld #lepidoptera #entomology #naturalworld #insects #walking #rambling #countryside #alttext

Before the Hush
An orange sulphur sun
sinks low into the horizon
Its rays catching
golden bird wings
In its glow
The speckled wood shadows
of elongated Sandhill Cranes
stretch awkwardly across the field
of uneven ground
Monarchs dance with dragonflies
in the air above tall grasses
as the sounds of the day
begin to hush
