Our wildlife garden at Wat Tyler is attracting a range of insects, including the butterfly below.

Can you tell what it is yet?

It opened it's wings and showed itself to be a male brown argus, delightful!

The beetle below is either a soldier or a sailor, answers on a postcard please.

 

Thanks to David Lee for the images.

  • Hi Alan,

    The pictures did not download my end, just a "?" symbol.

    Also, I replaced the membership forms I collected for Rainham last week.

    Also, was on West Canvey today and the windpump near the viewing platform has a problem.  Every now and again the 90 degree gearing at the top seems to slip, the blades still rotate but the vertical shaft stops and starts.
