Lockdown - Day 50

Week 18; 30 April 2020 - Abu Hassania

To get out of the apartment and get some exercise, I did a few walks in the late afternoon from Fnaitees to Abu Hassania carrying the macro lens.

The three most common 'Blue' butterflies can be seen in this area; Asian Grass Blue

Asian Grass Blue (Zizeeria karsandra)

Mediterranean Pierrot

Mediterranean Pierrot (Tarucus rosacea)

and the bigger Brown Playboy

Brown Playboy (Deudorix antalus)

Crimson-speckled Flunkey's are also fairly common in the right habitat

Crimson-speckled Flunkey (Utetheisa pulchella)

Whilst this Moth is really camouflaged and easily lost if you don't watch carefully where it lands

Euchromius Cambridgei

The European Beewolf if pretty unmistakable

European Beewolf (Philanthus triangulum)




An unidentified Fly species

Fly sp.

A bit of creativity with some of the flora on the walk

Dandelion in late spring

Getting ready to disperse
