Sometimes these are called rainbow apparently, they say “Iridescent clouds occurs in a cloud and appears in the general proximity of the Sun or Moon”.

Summer spiders 2020
There haven’t been many of late since the cold weather moved in, but in the summer we had lots of different spiders. Here are a few I managed to capture, they don’t hang around!

Yawny face
When you try to take a picture and your dog yawns into the camera instead. Nice.

Sunrise – 07.12.20
Another lovely December sunrise. I forget to download the photos from my Nikon sometimes and get a pleasant surprise weeks later when I go back through them.

Psammodromus Lizard
I miss these little guys when I go back through my pictures. Lizards were everywhere in Spain as well as geckos and other wildlife. This is a Psammodromus lizard, with it’s colourful stripe easy to identify.
Their tails and underbelly turns bright orange when they are in mating season.
They are so cool.

Christmas day moon 2020
It was a nice moon on Christmas day as well, it was clear when I spotted it and true to form, by the time I had grabbed the camera, clouds had started to move over. But they actually worked in my favour this time rather than cover it straight away. Enough for a couple of shots as least.

Butterfly #1
I have no idea what type of butterfly this is as I only managed to take a picture with it’s wings closed, despite it being taken at a butterfly farm! I have looked through the pages of options and nothing fits so far. There will be more to come, but this is one of my favourite pictures, in fact I think they all are 😉

Not a bad start to what turned out to be a sunny day Christmas Day. Cold, but sunny.

Magpie moth
This is a small magpie moth. I have been taking pictures of insects for ages but didn’t always find the time to name them. Now have found a bit of time to go back through and find old pics to try and identify them. This one is from 2015.
