[QUOTE="WeeHector, post: 200164, member: 14301"] After 2 weeks of virtual non-stop rain, the sun has returned and, to make things better, it is the first day of a week's holiday. After a quick trip out this morning, I had a walk beside the canal and detected some movement in the undergrowth. A rather large Katydid (6 cm long) emerged and climbed up onto my hand. [ATTACH=CONFIG]53183._xfImport[/ATTACH] He seems to have liked what I had been holding as he nibbled at my palm for several minutes. [ATTACH=CONFIG]53184._xfImport[/ATTACH] Shortly after he flew off to his normal habitat where he is difficult to detect. [ATTACH=CONFIG]53185._xfImport[/ATTACH] Later on, I came across some strange activity by a colony of wasps. I assumed at first that they had caught an intruder and were attacking it but this turned out not to be the case. Could it be something to do with the eclosion of new queens?
