I met some lovely creatures at a nature reserve this weekend that I wanted to share with you: a weevil with a snoot, a moth with a snoot, a huge chafer beetle, and a bagworm moth caterpillar - the first time I've seen one in real life!
A teeny dark brown weevil, maybe a centimetre long, with a long snoot, sitting on a bright pink flower. A handsome grass veneer moth, which looks like a long triangle with yellow and dark brown stripes. This moth also has a snoot and is resting on some foliage. A large brown-red beetle, maybe 3-4cm long, with blonde fluff sprouting from underneath. It is resting on someone's hand. A bagworm moth caterpillar, which has made a home by encasing itself in strips of twig and pine needles. The caterpillar inside is completely obscured, but attached to a birch leaf.

A photo of the sculputure "politicians talking about climate change" by Isaac Cordal. The sculpture consists of several busts and heads sunk into the ground to varying degrees, which combined with a deep puddle, gives the image that they are partially underwater.

A cat, sat on a dining chair and peering over the edge of a desk. In front of her sits a notebook with lots of notes and an open laptop.
