Hi - I wonder how much set-aside is worth for farmers. I have just been looking on the DEFRA web site and there is confusion of documents about this subject. If you look at the guidelines (54 page booklet) it must be very confusing. Don't we just need some simple guidelines to follow! Like don't cut...

There is also a companion series hosted by Chris Packham on BBC4 - 7 o'clock on Sunday but I think it is also on later on a Wednesday. Last night they showed Black Hairstreak at Rockingham Forest (didn't kno it was there!), and Northern Brown Argus at Castle Eden Dene among others. Well worth a watc...

Sorry Pete my apologies - you are correct! What I had remembered was a previous post : Hi Martin, I suggest you stick with some of the commoner species, since there's quite a debate about the merits of releasing rarities and the potential problems this can cause! In terms of livestock, you could try...

Milkweed
I have been offered some Monarch larvae and have been trying to find somewhere that can supply the Milkweed as foodplant. Does anyone have any knowledge of where I might be able to buy some from? I don't think that the larvae will eat anything else unfortunately!
Thanks
Thanks

Aston Rowant & Whitecross Green Wood
We had a fantastic day out yesterday (decided to take the day off work as it was forecast to be a nice day) firstly at Aston Rowant and in the afternoon at Whitecross Green. I have never seen Silver Spotted Skippers or Chalkhill Blues before - we don't get anything as exotic up here in Derbyshire! O...
