During April May June and July I tend to get abit more variety more often May June July but I gradually start getting more interesting looking ones at some point durinf April that’s not to say flys or some other species of insects with less exiteing looking appearances or behaviours arnt interesting cause they can be cause theres more to them than people think but hopefully I will have more exiteing looking insects to share with everyone for this insect thread than the ones I’m getting at the moment then

Iv got lots and lots of insects recently Iv decided to wait until I got a lot and then post them rather than posting after taking one photo or something
I have got more insects and some are cuckoos even if not apaearing to mimic its subject so should hopefully make the insect thread quiet interesting
