Kierse widepad 2 August.
Another walk in the weeding.
In June I also took this walk in the Wieden. Then I didn't have that much time, because there was an impatient daughter waiting for me by the car. But now at the beginning of August, I am there again with my mother who also likes to shoot. We brought a sandwich, so all the time.
A tiny butterfly sits on my leg when I'm tying the laces of my hiking boots.
Well those laces can wait a while, first a picture. Lovely little animal! It's a birch pedal moth. And what the name already shows is the birch, one of the host plants of this little one, as well as the alder and black alder.

A male little red-eyed damselfly. The females do not have red eyes.

A duckweed is fluttering.
And further on, a plantain moth.


After a little chase, I have this butterfly good for the lens. It looks like a water lily moth, but the obsidentify app tells me it's a motley cockmoth. Also a type of grass moth, which is why they look alike. But if I take a closer look at the pattern, it's different from a water lily moth.
The swamp grasshopper also feels at home here.


The little flowers of blue gliadwort. On Google, I come across all kinds of supplements that incorporate it as a relaxing agent.

Branched lion tooth. The name refers to the magazine. And the plant belongs to the composite family, just like the dandelion.

You see these plants often and yet I have to look up what it's called. It's peach herb.
