Just found my first UK true assassin bug!!! Always wanted to find a masked hunter but never expected to find one on my office shed (Reduvius personatus) Biodiversity Information Service (BIS)
Nipped to the fields and cliffs near Portland Bird Observatory after some gull ringing and was absolutely blown away by the wildlife. Especially the orchids, little owl and marbled whites.
A new island, gull science and an extremely nice group of ringers is a tough combination to beat. Thank you Flat Holm Island and the other ringers for an exceptional weekend. 🏝️
World’s smallest falcon (22-25 g) and world’s largest hummingbird (~20-26 g). Amazing to see how form matches function. Smithsonian NMNH
