    Phileas our resident Pheasant has returned - we think it's the same one as previous years as he seems to know every inch of our garden and is not afraid to come and say what are you doing in my garden :D He's got three wives so far this year. no

    Saw this beastie yesterday.



    Hadn't seen anything like it before but with a fairly vicious looking proboscis, I assumed it was some variety of horse fly. Looked it up and discovered it was a bee fly which isn't the most pleasant of insects but a pollinator's a pollinator 🤷‍♀️

      I think thats a beefly, a type of hoverfly. They zip around like a golden snitch.
