Happy 100th Birthday David Attenborough!

I learned my love of nature as a kid watching his wildlife documentaries.

Now I work on climate change.

Same story for so many of us working on environmental issues!

From hanging out with primates to early climate warnings, here's a selection of his trailblazing programmes.

More Ladybug pupae. Unfortunately people are aggressively spraying in the surrounding areas...

And the weather is again unusually warm for this time of year.

Ladybug larvae and pupa. Several shrubs beside a nearby river were so covered in them. There were also a few black aphids on those shrubs. Apparently the larvae were having a feast.

I feel quite defeated with these Columbines...

I followed B. Domangue's diagram (https://leafpiece.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/columbine_diagram_2013.pdf). The flowers were okay, although I wish I could get them to have five petals. The real pain lies in the stems and the leaves. A4 printer paper struggles to grab my green watercolour paint, as always, and without wires, the long paper stems really are fragile. In the end the result is just okayish.

Anyway, it's Columbines' season again...

Wall Irises, or Roof Irises. There aren't many cultivated Irises around, but quite many semiwild ones here and there. They are often planted or grown on damp woodland or water body edges.

Fringed Iris. I'm glad you can find them almost everywhere, and they came back every year.

One of the nearby parks kept itself so tidy and spray so much, there are barely any insects there... The flowers are blooming, everything sprouting, but one or two hover fly was all I saw.
