Behold, my stuff: Wolverhampton moths and other inverts; astrophotography; dinosaurs; models and... er... other stuff... Random and sporadic, just like me 😁

Thanks very much! It turned out way better than I expected tbh. We don’t live in an ideal spot for photographing the night sky.

Looks similar here with rain potentially starting at 4 in the morning until 6. I’ll keep an eye on the forecast through the day. I’ve missed pretty decent nights before because I took the met office predictions at face value.

I had a good spread of their eggs in one of the egg boxes last night. Not sure it’s the right approach but I put the box deep under a hedge amongst leaf litter for insulation.

Thank you. Must admit it’s taken a few years to get it together, and I made loads of daft buying mistakes on the way, but I’m there now 😉
