Today I saw a common shrew, unfortunately it wasn't at home but on an industrial estate in Rainham. Manage to have a good look though.
Came home, had dinner and listened to England lose the 2nd Test Match against Pakistan. Any before the hayfever got the better of me - which it did! - I had a good look around at some mini-beasts. I managed to get a couple of pictures of the Small Tortoiseshell catterpillars that were busy eating their way through our stinging nettles.
Here are many of them devasting my prize nettles!
Sorry about the focus/camera shake, I will try and improve.
If I can I will try and keep an eye on what they are doing and update the website with pictiures etc.
