Leave some space for wildflowers in your garden #GardenersWorld

If they are not cut in Spring and Summer they will provide a home for #Nature

That's interesting. Kent Field Club @kentfieldclub.bsky.social had a Bibio anglicus record two years ago.
Will repost, please let us know if more information emerges.

A native Honeysuckle Clubhorn, also called Green Honeysuckle sawfly (Abia lonicerae) seen in #Brighton.
There are only a resricted number of records for this #sawfly across England and Wales.

Only 67 England + Wales records.
BTW, NBN call him 'Honeysuckle Clubhorn'

That's an option. Many people love their connection with garden birds.
RSPB provides options to balance both objectives.

Research (many years ago) showed garden bird feeders raised the urban carrying capacity for a few species.

Brighton & Hove Council promised it would stop using #Glyphosate

Keep your eyes peeled for Red Star-thistle (Centaurea calcitrapa) and Childing Pink (Petrorhagia nanteuilii), both *nationally rare* and included on the England Red List.

There are two British species. It might be one.
However more likely to be horticultural variety.
Mill Hill LNR will have native Prunus in flower now.
