HI as I have just joined I thought I would tell you a bit about myself. my name is Keith Marshall and I have a market stall selling photos of wild life. My...
I have just joined what I hope will be an interesting and successful group. I live in Norfolk and am mainly a birder though interests are varied, botany,...
I'm Guy, in Hampshire. My interest in this group is mainly for ideas for activities for the Wildlife Watch kids group that I help run. Anything to support my...
Good luck, Martin, and hello to everyone else :o) A bit about me; I don't really know anything about anything but that has never stopped me voicing an opinion....
For a kick off do the group have any comments on the latest avian flu ... At the moment I do not see it as a fiasco. There is a lot of hype at the moment about...
Welcome, Guy. Good luck with the Watch group. I used to run them when I was a ranger in Scotland, and then when I first moved back to Wales. Thinking of...
Welcome burhinus, Jen, Andy, etc. I look forward to hearing everyone's opinion on this, and other, topics. Regards, Martin. Martin Bailey, Ecologist Wildlife &...
I agree that the media seems to have created a bit of an unnecessary panic. After all, you can't catch it off a dead chicken that's been in the supermarket...
You're very welcome Susie. I know from the other group that you are quite happy voicing an opinion - long may it continue. This group will allow anyone to...

Just to get the group going I've uploaded a photo of the stag beetle. It isn't a great picture, and I appreciate that space is limited, so I'll delete it in a...
Thanks for that. My co-leader got the kids to build a series of very impressinve 'traps' to entice stag beetles a coulple of years ago. Very impressive, as I...
Hi, heres a couple of plants you wanted and some of my other pics hope they are up to standard, am I able to copy other pics for education NOT FOR SALE as you...
I know some of you object to the term 'bugs' and possibly 'creepy-crawlies' as a general term for invertebrates, but this might be of interest as an...
Hello Phil - well I'd have to see the Bug Watcher kit to comment on it properly but anything that awakens or encourages a child's interest in the natural world...
Hello Christine, nice to see you here. I saw a butterfly in West Drayton (Middlesex) about an hour ago - it is reasonably warm here but overcast and thinking...
Susie, I'm not sure that the warm weather will have benefited the butterflies. If they are not able to find food, they will be using up energy they need to...
Ivy is certainly one of the best native plants for wildlife, especially as it is a late sorce of nectar and berries. There must be some non-natives that...
Well, I suppose it depends on whether the butterflies flying can feed on that particular plant or whether they are not fussy - no point in having a whole host...
