Re: Andrew555
We all see various other critters as we're out and about looking at butterflies, some of these I like to get pictures of and identify if I can. Here are some spiders that I came across last year. Seen at Mill Hill in May, it was the colour of this spider that first caught my eye, white but clearly n...

Re: Andrew555
Hi Paul, that's great!
Thank you.
Cheers Wurzel!

Having been very impressed with Pauline's photos and reports, I decided to give Bramshott Common in E...

Great stuff Trevor.
The Emperors were certainly a huge highlight for me this year, made all the better by seeing them with yourself and others.
