I didn't have a wasp photo for CC's lovely poem... a bee has to do!

A peacock in my father's garden.

Sitting down in the back yard after a day surveying the site.

I have been listening to David Goulson's Silent Earth, which is about the decline of insects - you can read an article he wrote on this...

In the photo, there's a fallen tree and the WT beavers stacked logs around it to make a place for insects to live. The sun had come out...

This is a rosette of willow leaves.

It could be a baby dragonfly.
