omg, hahahahahah I was thinking about meeting Macedonian, see nature and make some spottings....I will survive, faredin, believe me :D :D
HA HA HA, Balkans gathering :D
hahaha, no no don't tell here, keep it for our balkan spotting expeditions :)
jopy is confessing something? nooo no way :D ha ha ha
Hahaah, yea lets see how long she will be able to survive with Macedonians :).
@injica ha ha ha I'll not go only for spottings :D
hehe all macedonian spottings will be blue...first at north, then south, will stay some time in between, in Bosnia :D
Jopy aren't you coming north, ah I guess this Macedonians have already stolen our Jopy :D
Ohh no Jopy will go before us, take a lot of photos if you go...will be looking forward to see the Macedonian spottings :)
@faredin you make me alive with your blue spoting :D
hahaha, I'm back, you are right as always about blue...trying to catch your conversation... yes, you both come here, we have a lot places near zadar where humans have never been, except me :) maybe this summer will go to macedonia...
ha ha ha and it's not even a joke!
Hahaha, yea it's known for its pearls :). Can't imagine myself without nature :).
Oh, I love to think about my little town that is unique ;) just kidding, I'd really like that they would be more similar in terms of pearls ;D ha ha ha I got a present from Ohrid ;) I never thought about Denmark in that way, definitely new perspective ;D well there are some other benefits...but yes, nature heals my soul and that is essential to me too!
My parents live close to Ohrid. Macedonia and Croatia and the other countries around are more or less the same. There are just too many species, diversity is high and there are even places that no human has ever been and when I think that then I feel like shooting myself for moving to Denmark, a country that has no single wild spot, everything managed by humans :)
I haven't ever been but it's my dream, I know-sounds really bad that I haven't ever been in Macedonia...I just didn't have a right timing...my dad sometime ago even wanted to buy a house in Ohrid, then some plans have changed! Anyway keep us updated about your come back :P I'm sure Jopy would start enjoying all the colors in Macedonia ;)
Oh I'm dying to go to Macedonia and visit my childhood nature and finally record all those species I grew up with but don't have time, moving to Paris soon so need to fix things. But would be nice one day to organize a trip to some mountains to record everything that exists and Jopy would be responsible for the blue colored species :D
true, totally agree with you Faredin :D are you coming south ever? It would be so nice to tease jopy in team ;D
I think it's Jopy, she gives such ugly names to organisms that have no any kind of blue color on them :D
hahaha, Croatian, who else :) we have a stupid names for butterflies, for exemple, fam. Satyridae is "okaši"...etc.
Thanks a lot to you both, what would I do without such professional and fast europeans :)
jopy who is giving this kind of names to such a beautiful little creatures? terrible indeed! :D couldn't be something like gorgeous eyed butterfly, not but it has to be but FAT-HAED ha ha ha
I'm pretty sure...family Hesperidae in Croatian is "debeloglavci"...
I though it might be shadow ...so I wasn't sure ;)
As I see this one has brown underside of antennas...
yes, it is funny, I cant believe they gave it such a terrible name ;D
the difference is just the underside of the antennas, nothing else ;)
Oh and the Croatian name is funny, for such a small and cute beautty :)
Thanks but not much can be concluded from the first link and maybe it is like the one from the second link. Will check again later but it's nice how you have got them from really close distance. This wouldn't let me get close :)
It is one of this two http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/27631002 or http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/26330067
