It's too hot for fishing - expecially barbel - the water is warm and the last thing I want is one to go belly-up! But there is a storm brewing - kit packed and ready for the fresh water...
So instead I thought I'd do a Stag Beetle update; seems to have been a very good year with 36 beetles spotted (31 males, 5 females) - mostly at night or in flight when they're difficult to photograph!

Only seen one. A female.
ReplyDeleteSeem to find them all over this year - Selhurst, Streatham, Wandsworth, Tooting... and there might be a few still about...
DeleteSo jealous, still not had a photo opp this year!!! Maybe next year.
ReplyDeleteMostly found them at dusk when my camera isn’t great - shame, your camera loves those conditions. Might still find a straggler...
