Attended the Gatwick Wildlife Day ( Biodiversity Gatwick Blog here) today with Sid and Andrew. The site is a local patch neighbour to Beddington farmlands.  The event was hosted by the Gatwick Greenspace Partnership and organised by the Gatwick airport biodiversity team (and several chaps all called Tom).  A great day - moth catching, mammal traps, reptile traps, camera traps - the works.
The Long-horned Bee was magic.
