River Tay Sunset July 10th

Sunset over The River Tay North Fife 10th July 10.15pm. A long sunny day of 16 hours sunshine as recorded at Leuchars. Even caught some of it myself transforming my vapid skin tone to a rosy glow.



Earlier in the garden.
Rosebay Willow Herb, a wild flower which is the food plant of the Elephant Hawk Moth, regarded as a weed, I'm happy to have a stand of it for the benefit of the moths.
A lovely plump female Elephant Hawk Moth caught feeding on Valerian flowers and later released.
