Ooooh, that's a biggun

[Jack Ratt]

Just been out in the shed and found this beastie climbing up the window.

Stick insects are quite common but I haven't seen one this big here before. If we have a prolonged isolation we might have to eat him ...... or her

It’s a Stick!

Never seen one of those in the UK - didn’t know we had them.

They're quite common in Cornwall but the ones I've seen at our house are usually only around 2 inches long

Here’s a dilemma. Am told slugs and snails like beer! What to do?

 

[the Nefyn cat]

Can't take 'em down the pub, that's for sure.

Bringing a sensible thread about wildlife into the gutter!

With a thread title like that? Reminds me, there hasn't been a "new knob" thread for a while.
