Many fungi are now fruiting such as this Shaggy Ink Cap, Coprinus comatus.
Banded Demioselle
James, Anita and Dan went on a walk from Lower End Bridge to Pool House looking at different flowers and butterflies. On the way, we saw a female Banded Demioselle. We knew this because it had green coloured wings. Later on, We saw a male Banded Demioselle!! The wings were both colourless and there was a blue band on both of them. Now you know how to tell a male to a female Banded Demioselle!! (The two photos below were taken by James).
Try and guess which is the male and which is the female!
