Re: East Sussex meet up.

Great shots Mike! I particularly like the robber-fly ones. I have a photo that looks like the same species but mine's just sitting on a log. I haven't managed to put a name to it yet. I'm pretty sure it's not one of the ones in Collins.

Thanks Dave - you will let us know about number 3 when it emerges won't you?

I've managed to upload a few more this evening...


Garden spiders. I'm pretty sure this is courtship with the male on the left and the larger female on the right.


Green lacewing


Common wasp


Scorpion fly.
