Diogenes 30 Jul 10:22am, 30 Jul 2024 87,299 posts	0 Diogenes A couple of Cinnabar moths caught my eye this morning. Apparently common, I can't recall seeing them before. They are very distinctive with their crimson wings.

Dustin 30 Jul 11:42am, 30 Jul 2024 28 posts	0 Dustin Lovely idea for a thread! We've left part of the lawn wild to encourage butterfly & moths and was great sitting out there on Sunday seeing more than I have in the garden for years. Still not that many , but more! Regrettably we don't get any badgers and not seen foxes for a while, but the hedgehogs are back again this year. I've resisted the urge to check both hedgehog houses so far this year. Did have 3 in the garden earlier in the year but only seen two together recently.
Ally-C 30 Aug 4:05pm, 30 Aug 2024 6,252 posts	0 Ally-C There was a wasp bike in the bird box on the side of our shed. They’ve all left, so I investigated it. Amazing thing.
RunningRonnie 30 Aug 4:18pm, 30 Aug 2024 3,306 posts	0 RunningRonnie Cool. We had one last year in the we'd. Accidentally disturbed it with the strimmer. I didn't hang about long! We went on holiday, then when we came home a badger had destroyed it.

Ally-C 30 Aug 4:23pm, 30 Aug 2024 6,253 posts	0 Ally-C I just left it all Summer, but of a bugger getting the bikes out, but that wasn’t that often in this shit weather, the mrs got stung once, so not too bad.
RunningRonnie 30 Aug 4:33pm, 30 Aug 2024 3,308 posts	0 RunningRonnie We chose to leave it. Badger chose a snack.
Diogenes 30 Aug 4:39pm, 30 Aug 2024 87,903 posts	0 Diogenes We noticed a wasps nest on the fence by the side of our house on just this Wednesday gone. We can't believe we hadn't spotted it before, although it is quite camouflaged. It's a beautiful thing.
