Holiday Snaps

Following on from a recent holiday I’ve finally updated the header image above to something different and uploaded some of the holiday snaps to flickr.

Kew and Chihuly

After spending yesterday evening in Bristol for a wedding we took the opportunity on the way home today to visit Kew Gardens to have a look around the glass houses and in particular to look at the exhibition of the glass sculptures by Chihuly.

I originally heard about these sculptures from Richard and after seeing some of the photos that he took and Sarah shared we thought it was well worth a visit.

Here are some of the photos I took today at Kew (for more see flickr)

Six Spotted Burnet Moths at Southwater Country Park

Last Thursday while out for an evening walk I spotted lots of these insects sunning themselves.

Six Spotted Burnet Moths

After quite a bit of research it turns out that these are Six Spotted Burnet Moths (Zygaena filipendulae). There where quite a lot of them there I didn’t count exhaustively but I think I saw at least 20.

The photo was taken at Southwater Country Park on 14th July 2005.

Summer weather!

Summer weather, what summer weather? – Just took some photos of today’s hail – nice!
