This week in the garden:
 |
| Bat roosting on the roller shutters. |
 |
| Graphosoma Italicum in a head of cow parsley. |
 |
| Unidentified moth (?) on wild marjoram |
 |
| Also on the marjoram, a Gatekeeper ... |
 |
| ... And I think a Meadow Brown |
 |
| Large wasp on fennel. It hasn't seen the yellow spider. |
 |
| More visible in this photo. |
 |
| Common Swallowtail growing fast on my bolting florence fennel.. There was a second which was eaten by a spider; only the empty skin remains! |
 |
| Scarce Swallowtail - we see more of these than the Common Swallowtail! |
There were also clouded yellow and large fritillary butterflies which refused to stay still long enough to be photographed. The praying mantids are out and about too, still in the flightless form. I hope to get some photos this week.
