The 14 days of Biodiversity

7 Porcello scabers
2 Philoscia muscorum
Many Passer domesticus
and 5 Pyrrhosoma nymphula!!



(or 5 large red damselflies!)

It was a glorious morning, so we drove out to Stover Country Park and did the first count. I didn't think there'd be any to count, as it was extremely cold. But there they were, at the far side of the lake!! Probably there were heaps more, but they were very difficult to spot.



And yesterday I counted the woodlice in the garden (with the help of the hub, because of the spiders ...) and the bird counting is ongoing. It's interesting. It'll be especially interesting when we get all the database results down and can do our regression analysis!!

Apart from that, there's the hotspot/GAP stuff .... I don't want to talk about it. Sometimes I don't know why on earth I'm doing this course. But, must plod on ...
