A rough orange red textured rib on a purple green Nettle leaf on a green background (Nettle rust fungus)

Red & orange fungus growing on a Nettle leaf of purple & green

I was told & shown this last week by a visitor at #RyeMeads after having talked about #Bubo #Panlisting I mentioned @graemelyons.bsky.social having a webinar on @eventbrite.bsky.social that I hope to see… I digress I went on to find my own Nettle rust fungus this week I love learning new things

Would I be right in thinking this is a Tapered Dronefly (Eristalis pertinax)? #wildlife #panlisting http://t.co/H81lFPTp3w

Stacks of new Hoverflies, Sawflies and Wasps to ID when I get home. Talk about jumping in at the deep end with this #panlisting malarkey.

Rhogogaster viridis I think.. Please correct me if I am wrong. Looks lie an alien! #panlisting http://t.co/7pNHqDgzHO

Two new micro moths and 2 new plant species noted this afternoon. The joys of #panlisting! Now to ID this Wasp/Sawfly/thing.
