Oh what a shame, but best laid plans and all that! Bad weather has put paid to my plans many a time over the last few months. But now its March and spring is just round the corner - it's doing its best. We have had one really nice day, enough to fool us it was here but then it was back to cold misty drizzle. I go out every evening though in search of moths, but nothing yet, quite a few larvae though - or baby moths as I like to call them, so I don't think I am missing out on moths completely
I hope you have a super-duper butterfly year!

Hi goosey,great to be back,off, work at the moment,minor op but ok now.Didn`t get up to Lakes that weekend,it was far too wet ,have to make more of an effort this funghi season.Looking forward to getting outside again,hope it`s a good year for the butterflies ths year.

Hello! good to have you back!
Did you get to the lakes?

Your welcome. Enjoy yourselves and don't forget your waterproofs!
I look forward to seeing your images.

Thanks goosey.Think we`ll get wet and muddy anywhere at the moment over here.It`s worth it though,to get some good pics.Stand by.

In answer to your question - Gosh, I haven't been to the Lakes in the Autumn for years, so can't really help. But a great place in August so I expect even better now was on a walk between Monk Coniston (north east end of Coniston Water, a currently being renovated walled garden) and Hawkshead. Another good place was Dodd Wood at Bassenthwaite. But to be honest it will be so wet an d lush there I expect you will be in luck most places.
Have a lovely time - I am rather envious. I would love to go myself this time of year or winter for a change of scenery and all those photo oppertunities .
