Unseasonably warm down here in the south. Sadly I've also seen a wasp.
Did it flutter by?
I saw a butterfly at Lunchtime today too on my lunchtime dog walk in the Pentlands.
Braw warm day it was too!
Saw 9ne a couple of weeks back under the car just as I was going out. Picked it up and put it 9n the windowsill in the sunshine. It was gone by the time we got back.
Need are at the purple flowers already.
Yes two at weekend in borders and frog spawn too.
I spotted one at Hawes on Saturday. We were eating chips and deep fried battered wensleydale in the camper. The scene was lovely, I pointed it out to the family just as a jackdaw swooped in, stamped on it and then made a show of eating it 🙂
Had a bee in the garden a few weeks back, another one this week - can't help but feel they're living on the edge...
We've had bees and butterflys out for a few weeks now - not a lot about for them mind.
Seen a few around the garden here in sunny Southampton
It's high teens here in mid Kent, plenty of sleepy bumble bees about.
saw a small tortoise shell out on a ride a couple of weeks back. Had a couple of brimstones in the garden not much for them to feed on at the moment though 🙁
I’ve seen bumblebees around over the last few days, a butterfly today, and I saw another a week or so back, plus there were loads of honeybees all over one of my heather plants in the garden last weekend - my house faces north-south, and the back wall gets very warm and radiates heat, the heathers are in pots close to the wall. I need to get some more, a couple have died so need replacing.
A large wasp flew into my office this afternoon about 15 seconds after I decided it was warm enough to open the window.
I bravely shooed it out by wafting a t-shirt at it, while getting ready to leg it. Managed not to let a OOOOOOOOOOHYAHBASTID!!! out, which I was pleased about.
I've seen both a butterfly and a bee in the last couple of days (North Yorkshire).
I took a photo of a butterfly on the top of a mountain sitting on the snow in Austria last December! Not sure what exactly it was going to do there.
Had our first fly buzzing to get out the window today.
Been on the Mendips all day, stacks of butterflies, butterfly traffic jam about the place.
Saw one Sunday and also plenty of bees. Went for a trail ride today and bloody flies everywhere!
Saw the first few bats on yesterday evening's ride, fluttering around me as I rode.
Saw a peacock butterfly today. Oodles of frog spawn in ponds last weekend. South London.
My youngest has just rescued a bee from a bucket of water out in the garden.
today, phone pic.
Brimstones about.
Tadpoles in the pond.
Seen some Bluebells as well. Later than normal here. South Glos.
Saw a butterfly early last week, lots of bumble bees buzzing about and the ditches and ponds are full of frogs and frogspawn. I watched a heron gorging on frogs. We’ve had a very mild (but wet) winter on the Isle of Mull.
Had to escort a wasp out of the bedroom this morning.
Massive bumblebee on the flower pots today, and swarms of big black flies.
Summink ain't right!
Yeah, saw a butterfly on Tuesday. Also quite a few bees which seem to be absolutely massive this year! Hopefully we don't have a sudden cold snap as it'll decimate the early risers.
