Supermoon rising over Newcastle
The full Moon on the night of 27th September 2015 was particularly bright because it came relatively close to the Earth in its elliptical orbit (perigee) making it appear 14% larger in diameter. The moon appears reddish in this photo taken just after 7pm as it is close to the horizon and seen through the Earth' atmosphere and a few wispy high clouds. The combination of the supermoon with a full eclipse which was to take place in another few hours this same night Image and Image is a fairly unusual event which has only occurred 5 times since 1900. The last was in 1982 and the next will take place in 2033. http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap150927.html The Moon illusion is an optical illusion which causes the Moon to appear larger near the horizon than it does higher up in the sky. Although the atmosphere does change the perceived colour of the Moon, there is no real magnification effect as was once believed. In fact, the visual image of the moon is about 1.5% smaller when it is near the horizon than when it is high in the sky, because it is further away by nearly one Earth radius. The explanation of the illusion is still debated https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon_illusion

Red Kite
Reintroduced south of the Tyne in 2004-2006 and successfully breeding after a period of 170 years. This one was hunting for food around the village gardens Image Ken from Friends of Red Kites http://www.friendsofredkites.org.uk/ identified my photo as a juvenile bird which would have fledged in the summer of 2009. There is evidence that a pair may be nesting locally, and if successful, there may be many more such flying displays over the village.

Swallow-tailed Moth (Ourapteryx sambucaria), Heddon on the Wall
My old book on moths dated 1913 says this moth is confined to the southern half of the kingdom; particularly common, but local, around London. A new reference (2003) shows its current distribution is now much wider and that it has colonised Deeside in recent years.
