Red Ryder

A domestic day for me mostly, as my sister is coming to stay next week.
This evening, while I continued with catching up on housework and  listening to the radio,  Martin went to Beaulieu Road in the  New Forest to lead other RSPB members, looking for Nightjars. (I have been before, and it makes for a late night). The birds appear at dusk,from their daytime roosts, and  the  males make  a really strange churring call. Then they fly around, catching  flying moths, beetles and other insects.
Anyway, tonight, the  RSPB group were successful in finding Nightjars, and a variety of other bird species.
My blip is of the  flowers of Kohleria Red Ryder, the  rhizomes kindly  supplied by blipper, TonyG, (Crocusman). I love the red-veined leaves, as well as the fine, red  flowers.
