This includes garden favourites, wildflowers and crops like apples, tomatoes, peppers, kiwis—the list goes on 🍓🌺

So excited to see this gorgeous Violet Ground Beetle, Carabus violaceus at work today. My #ForestSchool children were absolutely enchanted, watching it closely, as it speedily hunted through the moss 🪲 #InsectWeek23

Well, I wasn’t expecting to see this gorgeous beauty on the way home! A Lime Hawk Moth, Mimas tiliae. What a lovely surprise and laying eggs too! #InsectWeek #InsectWeek 23

Day 1 of #InsectWeek23 is a Oedemera nobilis or Thick Thighed Flower Beetle I photographed - I love their long Antenna! #insectweek #insects #nature #photography #twitternaturecommunity

Also found some lovely insects & a cool spider #InsectWeek23 #InsectThursday #naturelovers #Macro

After visiting the East Wickham Open Space we wandered through the Plumstead Cemetery hoping to see a Marbled White Butterfly: nothing doing alas but we then saw one on nearby Bostall Heath (just the single one) ~ 21 June 2023 [... #InsectWeek ... #InsectWeek 23 ...]

Had a lovely walk around a local nature reserve on Monday, lots of beautiful #butterflies to see #InsectWeek23 #NaturePhotography #InsectThursday

The grass is practically dust in this weather, best mow whatever tiny bits of green may be struggling on!!

Best use petrol engine equipment too!!

AND in #InsectWeek23 so best destroy some habitat

Lambeth Council not good enough in a climate AND biodiversity crisis
