Thank you.

I am still seeing the occasional Red Admiral. But not for much longer I think if the forecast frost come on Wednesday night.

Still around here jacksparrow.

Great to see Willpar. Of course it is sub-tropical down in Devon(nearly Cornwall) compared to us folk in the midlands so they're not so quick to go into hibernation.

Quite a frost first thing. But when I went out over the farmers fields was quite warm. Believe it or not, I picked up a caterpillar when I went out at 9pm with the garden cam. Was quite a dark green on about an inch long. Brushing the succulents which have gone really wild.

The succulents, Willpar

Hey nuthatch, just for you, have put up a video clip of the cucculents. Also of my pyracantha growing up the wall. Will find it in Plants/succulents.

Thanks, Willpar - on my way ...

My first Butterfly of the year today alive and on the wing. A Small Tortoiseshell Struggling gamely to cope with a very gusty cool wind
