Naturalist. Norfolk. Mostly wandering about looking at invertebrates with Kevin Radley (in which case all photos his) or observing the creatures in my garden.

A 24-spot Ladybird (Subcoccinella vigintiquattuorpunctata) gets my vote for the cutest beetle larva!
There were hundreds of these larvae last year at this site but we've only seen a handful this year.

Kevin found this pair of Hornet Moths (Sesia apiformis) this morning when checking our favourite Poplar tree. Can't say I'm not just a little bit jealous!

Found our first Swallowtail (Papilio machaon) eggs of the year today- on Hemlock (Conium maculatum)

Sicus ferrugineus (Ferruginous Bee-grabber). Seen today in the garden in the sunshine between showers. A male I believe from the relatively shorter abdomen.

The outline of this Glyphipterix fuscoviridella (Woodrush Moth) from a distance looked uncannily like a bat dropping it was resting by on shed window with until I took a closer look!

Spotted in between the showers, Pandemis cerasana
(Barred Fruit-tree Tortrix), a smart little moth!

🌍 The arrogance of humanity in our pursuit of development often blinds us to the consequences of our actions. We must recognize that our planet is fragile and requires our respect and care. #Sustainability #EarthCare
Another day of sunshine & showers. A few creatures seen today on a meander about Surlingham & Rockland St. Mary.
Comma (Polygonia c-album) larva, Chrysotoxum bicinctum (Two-banded Spearhorn), Red-eyed Damselfly (Erythromma najas) and Yellow Shell (Camptogramma bilineata)

Orange-tip (Anthocharis cardamines) and Green-veined White
