Lovely to have international visitors to our site! Today at No. 5 the Insectavorium was at last built! It looks good and hope it provides convenient housing for our resident insects - watch this space!
PS for pictures go to "Projects/Insectavorium"

For info the next workday is the 17th - though a Saturday - workdays are often Sundays.
I will pass on Roys info.
Please all note that the Nature's Numbers article has been updated with info from mathematician John Allen Paulos.
Does anyone know what is happening to the south side of the valley of Timperley Clough, parallel and to the north of Gambrel Bank Road, between Alt Road / St Albans Avenue to the East and the old Ashton-Park Bridge railway line to the West? There has been a notice on Gambrel Bank Road for many years warning that the valley behind the houses is unstable and likely to slip wothout warning. (An old tip? I have seen bottle diggers there). Now all the trees covering a long stretch of that side of the valley have been cut down - why? Quite apart from other ecological considerations this is bound to make the valley side more unstable than it was. Were you consulted?

When is your next workday? I can't see any info about work parties on web site.
I've just read in the Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust magazine that Lady Philippa Scott, wife of Sir Peter Scott, died in January this year. Philippa Scott was honorary director of the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust and was actively involved in promoting conservation for the Antarctic. Sir Peter was a conservationist, naturalist and painter and was a long-time Vice-President of the British Naturalists' Association. Philippa Scott accompanied her husband on some 26 expeditions from the Arctic to the Antarctic and has written numerous books about her travels with her famous husband.
Just a note to say we found a small mammal of the shrew variety and a bumble bee who seemed to have a tumour this week - will send pix.
We have a tawny in our garden with owlets and it allows us to stand pretty close to its box when it pops in to feed the babies with vermin and worms
