| | | New Species from Climate Change
Well it looks like over the next decade we are going to see new arrivals on the species front.Any birders have any thoughts on what we might see soon? Also insects-what do you think we'll see and what would you welcome? Jules

It's quite wide spread throughout europe and has reached the channel coast, and I think a few have made the crossing to the S.E.
It's much bigger than our woodies and jet black, and I think, has a flash of red, but I'm too tired to get up and check my Ref book |

Maybe more birds like Hoopoe will be more and more common, and other birds from the Continent that occasional visit now 
Butterflys like the Swallowtail may become more establised in the south of the country. |

Don't know if they'd get here but I'd like to see mantids so long as they didn't upset the balance of species here. I think they're well interesting.
