My book has got a great endorsement from Chris Packham: "This clever and immensely resourceful book is an overdue gem". There's also a few pages up on the website too! It's up for pre-order here with publication set for January pelagicpublishing.com/products/pan...

More pandering to the far-right and more nonsense from an increasingly nonsensical government which is always reacting and never leading. I struggled with O level English and doubt I’d pass A level now. And I imagine like many reading this, I am descendant of immigrants (Irish and Italian).

Mark Telfer and I only went and refound Aulonia albimana on the Isle of Wight two days ago! Quite possibly the best spider find of my life! Lots of other records too. analternativenaturalhistoryofsussex.blogspot.com/2025/10/whit...

A write up of an incredible few days at Menai with at least 15 nudibranchs (eight were lifers) and some very talented young naturalists that showed them to us!

An incredible few days on the Isle of Wight last weekend, including a population of Praying Mantis (Mantis religiosa) found by Tony Davis and a mollusc that I found, Galeomma turtoni, that I believe is new to the Isle of Wight! analternativenaturalhistoryofsussex.blogspot.com/2025/08/mant...
