One of my favourite walks to look for insects is Burdon Moor there is nearly always something to find. However, so far this year I haven’t seen many of the different species of Shieldbug you would normally get there. And just as a footnote I have been twice recently to Twizell Woods and on each occasion I have only seen one Dragonfly which I find quite worrying considering the numbers and different species I have seen there in previous years.
