EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this enchanting snapshot captured by FLPA photographer Richard Becker, we are transported to the magical world of Powys, Wales. A seemingly ordinary birch twig becomes the stage for an extraordinary event - the over-wintering eggs of the December Moth (Poecilocampa populi)! As February blankets the picturesque Welsh countryside with its chilly embrace, these tiny ova hold within them the promise of new life and vibrant beauty. The delicate white orbs delicately cling to their woody perch, patiently awaiting spring's arrival. With its intricate patterns and subtle hues, this print is a testament to Britain's rich biodiversity. The European nature scene comes alive as we witness one of its smallest inhabitants preparing for future generations. The December Moth may be small in size but packs a big punch when it comes to survival strategies! These clever insects have chosen birch twigs as their winter hideaway due to their protective bark and proximity to food sources. So next time you take a stroll through Powys' breathtaking landscapes, keep your eyes peeled for these hidden treasures. Who knows what other wonders await us beneath those wintry branches? Let nature's secrets unfold before your very eyes!
