I had the butterfly one and cut out all the fritts and stuck them to my monitor in the hope I'd be a little more prepared for id when I stumble acros one (this has yet to happen!!).
No My Boss half inched the April copy off me and I've not had it back yet as he's on holiday!!
I was rumaging through the bookshelves last night when I stumbled on 9 of them with an elastic band round them

They include: No.10 Hoverflies, No. 4 Spiders, No. 12 British Orchids!, No. 11 Bumblebees!, No. 1 Garden Creatures, No. 8 Pebbles, No. 6 Winter Coastal Waders, No. 7 Winter Wildfowl.

I didn't really know much about the lifecycle of the hoverfly until I read the article. Interesting how the grubs feed on bee larvae!
