The Grey Chi Moth (Antitype chi)– Vitgrått klippfly in swedish – looks cute from the side...

First Vapourer

29:th of August 2010
On a mushroom-picking walk in the forest, a rufous Moth comes flying and before I know it lands right in front of me: A Vapourer! Unmistakable with it´s "sad eye" pattern on the back. An interesting species I´ve had on my mind for some time. The female is flightless and builds a cocoon where she lays her eggs on a soft bed of "anal wool". How about that?

And what a cute little fellow he is. (Note the feathered male antennae!)

Wolf in Frövisjön

23:rd of August 2010
Two birdwatchers got a real surprise today when they spotted a Wolf in the wetlands of Lake Frövisjön outside Skultuna. The Wolf stayed in view for as long as 30 minutes. The animal is a probable 1-year-old male wandering around, looking for a mate and a territory. There´s been a lot of observations in the Black River area this summer. Some livestock casualties as well. Photo: Ulf Broberg.
