I hung a net of peanuts in the garden yesterday, for birds and squirrels, but it was gone this morning.

Until I looked at one of the cameras, which shows a beech marten hauling ass with a net of peanuts in its mouth 😂

BirdNET-go alerted me it heard a kingfisher in the backyard. And it was right 🥰

And this isn’t a hornet at all, but the hornet mimic hoverfly. It does look and sound a bit like a (European) hornet.

For contrast, this is a European hornet. They’re larger, more pronounced and colorful abdomen, red/brown thorax/head/legs, and sound very different when they fly.

It was also very notable that bees and other flying insects tried to chase the Asian hornet away, while they're fine with the European hornets (which makes sense as the Asian hornet preys on bees).

Fourth photo is showing Stomorhina lunata, new species for our garden 😊 They have patterned eyes, a bit like horse flies.

One of the more strange-looking caterpillars (Calliteara pudibunda) 🐛

TIL that this moth is named, in Dutch, after Maria Sybilla Merian (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maria_Si): "Meriansborstel" (literally "Merian’s brush”).

And my wife told me that her grandmother wrote a book about her (in Dutch): bol.com/nl/nl/p/de-vlindervrou

I must have counted at least 50 different species on the Hedera today

If you want insects in your garden, plant Hedera. Especially late in the season (now) it’s absolutely filled with butterflies, hoverflies, bees and wasps 🥰

Vandaag tijdens een wandeling door het bos zag ik deze grappige paddestoel.
Een Aardster 🤎🍂🍁

Today, while walking through the woods, I saw this funny mushroom, it's an Earthstar!
