I had to go to Stratford this morning to run a couple of errands, and took the big gear with me in the hope that the weather might be better there than at home, and that there just might be … Continued

I spent quite a bit of the morning scuttling up and down the garden to check on the Red-legged Shieldbugs on the apple tree, but still managed to miss the moment when this brand-new adult emerged, because R and I … Continued

Transformation

by JDO | posted in: Bugs, Invertebrates, My garden, Worcestershire | 0

When I walked around the garden this morning, looking for insects, I was surprised to find that the weather had suddenly turned autumnal – dark, windy, and none too warm. I found a few invertebrates, but none that really interested … Continued

Marbled White

by JDO | posted in: Butterflies, Invertebrates, My garden, Worcestershire | 0

One of the big advantages of having a garden that looks more like an overgrown field than a tended area is that meadow butterflies are wont to wander into it. For the past ten days we’ve had Meadow Browns and … Continued

I had very little time for photography today, but I quickly set up the R7 this morning, and trotted off down the garden to try it out. My snap review is that it produces very sharp images when you can … Continued

I’ve had one of those days when you work pretty much flat out, but don’t feel you have much to show at the end for all the effort. I’ll just have to console myself that I can see the difference … Continued

Waspish

by JDO | posted in: Beetles, Invertebrates, My garden, Worcestershire | 0

I posted one of these wasp beetles a couple of weeks ago, but this is a better photo because it was taken in flat light. I love its whiskers and hairy legs, and its strange eyes that curve around the … Continued

R and I took the Boy Wonder to Forest Farm this morning, for the first time in nearly a year. We were a little nervous – because of the canal, obviously, but also the extensive nettle beds – but he … Continued

The strangely belated Large Red Damselfly emergence in our garden carried on today: one emerged from the patio pond, and six from the wildlife pond. This, though, is one of yesterday’s immatures – the last of three that came out … Continued
