Dilemma. This spider (I think it might be an Walnut Orb Weaver; Nuctenea umbratica) has taken-up residence in the bee-hotel. I've already seen it catch one male Red Mason Bee. Perhaps I'll just rename the structure The Invertebrate Hotel and leave things as they are ...

Several wasp queens around in the garden this morning. This one (possibly Vespula germanica) warming-up in a Camellia flower. #WaspLove
First social wasp that I've seen collecting nesting material in the garden this year. I suspect that it's a queen German Wasp (Vespula germanica), but not certain. #WaspLove
One of the many snails (a Cepaea species I suspect) that inhabits our garden compost bin. As a special treat, I let it have a graze on the water feature. I'm attempting to record slug/snail species in the garden. #Gastropods
A weevil in the garden today. I think it's a Black Vine Weevil, but not absolutely sure. Seems to have lost one of its angled antennae. #Weevils
I'm assuming this is the Garden Snail (Cornu aspersum). Anyway, it lives happily in the compost bin (with a selection of other slugs and snails) and comes out from time-to-time for a portrait session. #Snails #Gastropods
You wait all day and three come along ...
Male Nomad bee warming-up in our #Staffs garden. Not sure of the species ...
White-lipped Snail (I think) in the garden yesterday. The light reflections make it look like it was moving really fast; it wasn't ... #Snails #Gastropods
Little moth in the garden just now. I'm assuming that this is a Green Longhorn Moth (Adela reaumurella), but not sure ...
Another Ruby-tailed Wasp on the garden bee-hotel. Managed to get really close to this one. #WaspLove
First ruby-tailed wasp of the year, investigating one of our garden bee-hotels. #WaspLove
Dock Bug (Coreus marginatus) in the garden just now. I understand that the two tiny projections between the antennae are a diagnostic feature. #INeedAllTheHelpICanGet
Two beautiful solitary bee species in our garden this afternoon; Orange-tailed Mining Bee (Andrena haemorrhoa) and Buffish Mining Bee (Andrena nigroaenea). Both of these females have the look of recently-emerged individuals. #Bees #SolitaryBees
Hawthorn Shield Bug (Acanthosoma haemorrhoidale) in our garden today ...
A random selection of things photographed in our #Staffs garden today. Mainly solitary bee species, but also a Myopa bee-grabber fly and a hoverfly too. #Biodiversity #Pollinators
I think that this is the third species of Nomada cuckoo-bee that I've seen in the garden this weekend. I don't know what this one is either! #Bees #SolitaryBees

@Ed_P_Wildlife Bee hotels because of the bee concentration end up as an 'all you can eat' buffet. But at least you get to see some interesting diners 😱🤣
Spent the morning at RSPB St Aidens saw plenty of bitterns flying around the reserve (7 flights over a couple of hours) and whilst waiting for the main event managed to see/photo a sedge warbler (I think?) I remember when you were lucky to ever see a bittern - a great come back!
@Ed_P_Wildlife I loved it. It’s a very gentle read. I’m loving your slug and snail photos.
@Ed_P_Wildlife Have you read the book ‘The Sound of a Wild Snail Eating’ ? I recommend it. 🐌🐌🐌🐌
@Ed_P_Wildlife Once again a stunning photo 😁you make the underrated snail look like a jewel
1/2 #speciesaday no. 262 is Vallonia costata (Ribbed Grass Snail). A tiny, pale snail with obvious ridges on the shell. I typically find it by suction on chalk but it's so small it's easily overlooked. This was under a log at Benfield LNR yesterday.
@Ed_P_Wildlife You are spot on with Black Vine Weevil - Otiorhynchus sulcatus, the long established and widespread one. They’re all females and reproduce parthenogenetically.
Some blue bells with an out of focus red squirrel background :) Didn't really get any better from my go at getting a "red squirrel in blue bells" shot! I blame it on the poor density of blue bells ;-)
Love it :-)
I'm assuming this is the Garden Snail (Cornu aspersum). Anyway, it lives happily in the compost bin (with a selection of other slugs and snails) and comes out from time-to-time for a portrait session. #Snails #Gastropods
@Ed_P_Wildlife I love that photo! The light on the snail, the bokeh, the colours and angle. It’s all just perfect.
I photographed this tiny springtail (Protaphorura sp.) on the underside of a piece of dead wood in Glen Affric. It belongs to a group of springtails which even experts find difficult to identify to species level. In my view, they are some of the cutest of the springtails!
Gorgeous afternoon! Cuppa and Welsh cake my lovely neighbour made for me! Every week I give her fresh eggs and then she delivers some gorgeous bakes! 😁❤️ #GwylltHollow 🏴
@Ed_P_Wildlife 😍 Gorgeous photo! Thanks for sharing! All the time in the world! #GoodDayForGastropods
Finally a perfect morning: sparkling dew and calm sunshine, the only sound the trilling of greenfinches and occasional blackcap song.
@Ed_P_Wildlife Looking for a macro lens to pair with my 7D, various reviews talk about avoiding really short lenses as you need to get so close to scare the subject away/block the light. Am looking at the canon EF 100mm f/2.8 L or EF 180mm f/3.5L
