A buffish mining bee. Rescued from the tunnel.

Seen my first adder of the year. Bob nearly ran it over. Luckily swerved at last minute. He got much better photos while adder was still in stock and wondering why he was suddenly in shadow (car park next to him). I got this photo 5 minutes later on my walk back . He was a slow learner as he was crossing the road again. And not very happy.

I didn't know dragonflies ate bumblebees. In fact I'd never thought about what dragonflies ate at all.

Other flying insects are lunch to dragonflies. Love watching them hunt. Their table manners aren’t great, very noisy eaters. But again fascinating to watch & hear.

I found this little fella on my Achilles. [attachment=7777]
Since the accidental squashing of tiger moth caterpillars. I’ve tried to find out who they tern into. Which I’m very pleased about because this is a hover fly larvae. So I put him back on the Achilles to carry on growing.
