    John's Mammals 2024

    I didn't realise this was not often seen John as my fox visitor regularly does it in the garden beds despite my protestations as i sit there watching her! Usually with the dog meat strips that a give her. In fact only the other day I was digging a hole for a new plant and found a bread roll...

    No photo I'm afraid but had a chequered black and white day flying moth on Kelling Heath (heathland habitat) in Norfolk this weekend. Any ideas?

    April Moths

    I'd be interested to see photos of people's set ups if convenient as I often feel my set up isn't producing optimal numbers so might see some obvious differences v others. And, John, I always put in the egg boxes in same way each time.

    Frog Frenzy

    Best I not mention the 30 Smooth Newts I counted in my garden pond a couple of weeks ago then! The spawn from the 6 frogs has now hatched so a mass of tadpoles too now.

    Blackdown

    Re the dog signs Paul, bigger won't make any difference with the self entitled walkers around here. My partner lives near Haslemere and we regularly do Blackdown, Witley, Roborough and Frensham commons and its the same issue everywhere. In fact my brother worked as a ranger covering Frensham for...

    Need help identifying this bird of prey...

    I use Google Lens quite a bit for plants and it seems quite accurate but then again a) I'm not expert on what it tells me although i know enough to know if its very wrong And b) I can get a very close photo of these! So it can be a useful tool in certain scenarios

    First Butterflies 2024

    Pretty sure I had a Small Tortoiseshell on Sunday but it was staying high around some tree tops sunning itself. Possible? Pretty sure it wasn't a Comma but didn't have any decent bins with me.

    John's Mammals 2024

    Just wondered if this is a local observation (north Hampshire) only but I realised the other day that I rarely see rabbits locally when driving at night or even as road kill compared to my younger years. I regularly drive between Farnborough Hants and Haslemere, Surrey along rural roads yet...

    Night vision equipment for mortals

    So having read this thread I'm not much closer to knowing what might be the best option for a £1000 budget?!! Pulsars seem to consistently come out highly rated but with custom batteries and questionable service. What equivalent options are tried and tested?
