Wish I'd made the effort years ago. And yes, my capacity for new knowledge feels rather inadequate too. It's a struggle to retain it!Gavin Haighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17242398421328525578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-824385241230348874.post-22362646950083654202022-06-11T08:45:01.509+01:002022-06-11T08:45:01.509+01:00I feel similarly about bees and hoverflies.

Heck no, not in this life time, but I am drawn to micro wasps but they too are difficult to identify unless captured and that all seems a bit of a faff. I do my best with identifying all manner of natural things but alas, my memory doesn't help and names are easily forgotten, aging doesn't help at all.<br />Dave Burrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08259482046178828401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-824385241230348874.post-44732482648293014382022-06-10T11:41:26.531+01:002022-06-10T11:41:26.531+01:00Ha ha!
