In today's episode of "What's in the Cockchafer Trap?" Three beautiful Cockchafers (Melolontha melolontha), and one pesky May Highflyer moth (Hydriomena impluviata ) as by-catch! 👀 Have you spotted any acorn-sized beetles recently? #TeamCockchafer #TeamMoth

Some pics from around the garden this morning. Was 20° yesterday and to be even warmer today. Doing most things in the shady parts as I'm not a big sun worshipper. 🌱 #gardening

Last year we had a pot in which the plant died so we put it to one side intending to reuse it but just left it. Now look at it! 🌱 #gardening #nature
