Bugs, bees and beasties- Bio-diversity matters

[Treemoose]

I don't know much about caterpillars

Always seems exciting when you find a big furry one tho. Anyone know what this is?

Possible Fox moth or White Ermine.

Had this beauty in the house for the past few evenings. I think it is a Ni moth. Its a african migrant and only about 50 come over the channel.

Seen this Tree Bumblebee today. Haven't seen one in the flesh before as they are fairly recent migrants

We had a colony in a bird box in the back garden. They have sentries flying round the entrance to keep a look out. I left them to it and they disappeared after about 6 weeks.

Have only seen 2 of these this year but then my eyes aren't so great.

Any ideas what this little beastie may turn out to be?

[sloth]

Any ideas on this little fella? It has the look of an ichnuemon wasp, maybe it's spent the last week going round the house with its antennas manically wiggling on the walls and plants...

I would agree. Ichneumon suspiciosus would be my guess.

I found this today.
