Dear Val,
More shots for the wild page. Following on from last week's pictures we had a bit of a triumph. I was chopping logs and noticed a butterfly stuck in the greenhouse, so I called to Louise who managed to let it out and then proceeded to take some photos as it recovered from its exertions on a nearby flower. Shortly after it flew off and Louise decided to wander around the veg garden and the next thing I hear is her bellowing "Neville! Scorpion fly! Male!". Well, with tripod and camera in hand, the log splitting was quickly forgotten and we managed to get a shot of it noshing a fly on one of our green chillies and another shot whilst it was probably digesting its lunch, that captures its splendid tail which is, in fact, its reproductive organ and is not used for stinging.

Val says - Fascinating pictures they are in Wild Photos now.
