SP5595ish - 600+

Here's an overdue update of my square listing additions, almost two weeks on from my last posting (where does the time go!). 78 species added, with 31 of those from the garden moth traps including a couple of caddisflies. I've actually only had two walks out into the square since mt last post, a brief one on 1st June (11 species added) and a better one on my birthday on 7th (30 species added). Otherwise a few bits added from the garden and around the estate, and I may get out a bit later today.

Rhagio tringarius - no. 600 and one of a few British Ticks on my birthday

Wasp Beetle - pleased to find this one in the square, one I usually see at 'good' sites

Thyme-leaved Speedwell - a new one for me that I've clearly overlooked in the past

Tachina fera - another new one for me, very big
I didn't want it flying around the kitchen hence duff photo in the pot ....

Pea-leaf Weevil

Empis stercorea - another new one

Fox and Cubs - yet another one new for me, again possibly overlooked

Rhagonycha limbata


Oncopsis flavicollis - a new one for me, swept from birch

Swollen-thighed Beetle - a garden tick (though I don't keep a garden beetle list at the moment)

  2. You have to remember what I'm up against here Stewart - no lush wildflower meadows and soil/substrate very poor. Add my botanical ineptitude to the botanically poor habitat and I'll be lucky to get to the 200ish plants that I was optimistically hoping for! I may well have to coerce someone that knows what they are doing into my square (a la Andy & Seth) :-)

  3. Coerce?! Mr Yaxley practically begged to come and find me a Great Crested Newt. It would have been churlish to decline.

  4. I think I'll need some hard-line tactics to get someone to spend their time in my square - did I mention the pub?
