Like the inside of an eyelid

I'm traveling with the children, but I scheduled this posting to appear meanwhile. If everything has gone according to plan, we should have done quite a lot of swimming, and be ready for other amusements.

Photographs of Lychnis viscaria were taken at Tremanskärr on June 22nd.

My love, I’ve petitioned the curator

Today I walked for two hours in Luukki, around three lakes, Väärälampi, Mustalampi and Halkolampi. I walked along the swamps, and there were plenty of flowers to be seen, such as Dactylorhiza maculata and Menyanthes trifoliata. The photographs were taken at Tremanskärr swamp on June 22nd. I'll be traveling for a couple of days, so there may be a break in the postings here.

Till the longest day was done

These photographs were taken at Tremanskärr swamp on June 22nd. Of the two butterflies, the other is Lomaspilis marginata, but of the other one I can't say much. And I don't know what is hiding inside the white lump.
