Just decided to check when I first appeared here, and according to the date on my intro thread (complete with LOTS of insect related discussion!), that I've now been here close on 7 years.
That time has certainly flown by!
In the meantime, as well as playing Chihuahua on a regular basis, I've added over 30 new moth species to my recording tally, including the fabled Merveille Du Jour that I mentioned in another post, that I and my colleague spent 31 years looking for!
2021 also saw me add the spider Nuctenea umbratica to my tally, which when illuminated by my LED torch, looks as if it has purple spangles on it!
