29 September

Despite mainly clear conditions, weak winds and 15°C (12:58 PM), I still struggled with a cold that, at the time of writing this, has been affecting me for nearly two weeks now.

It's becoming obvious that this season's coming to an end, with just one P. icarus still being active and the amount of whites declining. Only I. lathonia, P. c-album, V. atalanta and two remaining and visibly-aged A. cyanea use those remaining mild days to their respective advantages.
