Speckled bush cricket on a fig leaf
This Speckled bush cricket (Leptophyes punctatissima) is sitting on a fig leaf in an urban back yard. They are flightless, although they do have tiny brown flaps on top of the male's body. It is a plant feeder, although apparently not a pest in gardens.

Old tobacco factory building in Millbrook
The imagine was taken from the top level of the nearby multi-storey car park. On the right the original factory building opened in 1926 can be seen with part of the newer factory on the left, opened in 1993. The factories were closed in 2006 when cigarette production was transferred abroad. Both buildings are now scheduled for demolition in the near future. During the 2nd World War the old factory was used for the production of the Spitfire fuel tank.

York Road, Shirley
A residential road typical of those between Shirley Road and Regents Park: semis and terraces, all built well before almost every household had a car. A few more modern houses have been squeezed into the gaps.

This is the Foundry Lane gate to Foundry Lane Primary School, on the first day of the Christmas holiday 2007. The two plastic children have stood here, sentinel-like, since the summer.
