You know what they say about it being a dog-eat-dog world? Well, I think we could amend that to an insect-eat-insect world.
During my recent leaf-turning, I’ve noticed a few insect husks lying about. I’m not sure what has done the damage, which other creatures have sucked these dry, but their husks are all that remain.

I don’t know about you but, except on the very coldest of days, I like to have my windows open, at least for a short time each day, to let some fresh air into the house. Trouble is the little critters seem to sense that it’s warmer indoors than out and, if I don’t notice their presence, they don’t manage to escape with their lives. This morning I found two casualties, a Slater and a Wasp.
