The♀️stigma is a pink star at the centre. There are 10 ♂️ stamen, 5 open initially to reveal yellow pollen-bearing anthers. The others remain closed as orange pods bent out to the petals. As the 1st 5 wither the remainder open giving the flowers a 2nd wave of pollen release. Amazing! 🌸 #wildflowerhour

☀️13c with a cool offshore breeze for this mornings walk at Southbourne. Along the wind free undercliff I was greeted with dozens of nectaring Clouded Yellows. A total count of 75 including 5 of the helice form. This species continues to have an amazing year. @dorsetbutterflies.bsky.social

Feel very lucky to have timed a recent trip to Sydney perfectly to witness the spectacle of Bogong Moth (Agrotis infusa) migration. For the week or so I was there, every flowering plant on the coast seemed to be covered in moths.
