Common Spotted Orchid (Dactylorhiza fuchsii)
This handsome (and definitely wild) specimen suddenly appeared in our back garden! Not its usual habitat, which would normally be open woods, meadows, fens, marshes and scrubland.

Storm clouds over Nottingham
Torrential rain, thunder and lightning have just passed over Nuthall, heading towards the city centre for the second day running. One of the main shopping centres, the Broadmarsh, had to be closed the previous day because of flooding.

Sunset over Nuthall
Nothing unusual about this picture, you might think, but in fact it is taken facing SE while the sun was setting in the opposite direction.

Marmalade Hoverfly (Episyrphus balteatus) on globe thistle
An orange and black banded hoverfly with a distinctive pattern of faint stripes on the body, widespread and very common. Hoverflies are useful insects to encourage in a garden as most species, including this one, feed on aphids.
In most years numbers are greatly boosted by immigration from the continent.
There are about 250 different species of hoverfly in Britain. Although hoverflies look like bees or wasps, they are in fact true flies and do not bite or sting. Hoverflies are excellent examples of Batesian mimicry (named after H W Bates who first described it in 1862). They generally mimic bees and wasps – insects that sting and also taste unpleasant, so are avoided by predators.
