Hi Jerry It's nice to have people visiting the meadow - the conehead seems to have put it on the map! I have no views on the "beetle" other than to say that if...
... Thanks for the nice words! I was a bit worried that it might have been an Oak Bush Cricket, although size, & length of the ovipositor seemed against it....
I was hoping Sandy Aitkin was going to join the group as I don't want to steal his thunder. He was out looking for the Roesel's this afternoon but instead he...

One was in my garden in Bilborough on Sunday morning. Roy Frost has confirmed ID and passed it on to the Orthoptera recording scheme. It is a first for Notts...

Weird isn’t it when it happens to you; when I was about 35 (not so long ago mind you!) I was listening to a Grasshopper Warbler singing at Rutland Water and...
I agree with all that you say about bat dets, Barry. The Magenta Mk 2 has now been replaced with the Mk 4. I bought one from Alana Ecology at the Rutland bird...

Nothing to do with Notts or Derbyshire, but the photos are well worth looking at! Colin B (Mickleover) ... From: Harassed Dad <harasseddad@...> To:...
I have seen at least 4 Roesel's near Bramcote Hills Comp several days ago and one in Wollaton Park yesterday. Also at Attenborough, a second group of...
Yes Ben, it is an Harlequin. Richard Ben Moss <benmoss@...> wrote: Just added a photo to the ID gallery. I suspect Harlequin Ladybird, but am not sure. Can...
Harlequin sightings should be reorted to the Harlequin Ladybird Survey Ben. I've enclosed a link for you. I have found numerous Harlequin Ladybird larvae,...
Following Roy Frost's revelation that old folk (that's me now, though it has rather taken me by surprise)would benefit, I bought a bat detector. With no...
Interesting find today on the north side of the A52 Pit at Holme Pierrepont - a Grass Snake, I very nearly stepped on it! That has to be the first snake of any...
I'm pleased that you had such a successful time with the detector, Neil, and your records have been duly noted. Roesel's and Long-winged Conehead are both best...
