    I feel like moving just so I can give a home to hogs. :(

    I agree with @Fire ...........I'm definitely suffering with hog envy!

    A little hoglet came this evening - came alone - only for water.  So pleased to see we have at least one young one, it will have a good chance to fatten up before the winter arrives.  Last year we had little ones in November - that was concerning - we had one taken to the animal shelter where he was well looked after - they had a huge number of underweight youngsters taken in during November.

    This is I believe six spotted Burnett Moth, on a window sill

    That's really beautiful cornelly  :)
    All my hog family were out last night, although one of the little ones is less brave than it's brother/sister. Spent ages watching them  :)
    I'm hoping mine will get enough grub before winter too GD. It would be heartbreaking to lose any after being so lucky getting them in the first place.  :'(

    That moth looks amazing! I think sometimes we forget how incredible the tiny creatures are. I saw these 2 bumbles yesterday enjoying the buddleja. Also a hoverfly? (I'm not too good on ID of pollinators).

    Very cute Jules. Yes - a little hoverfly. Gorgeous aren't they?
    I've been enjoying watching the wasps drink at my pond recently. They get such a bad press, which is a shame. 

    I meant to say - Iamweedy's hoverfly  pix are stunning.
