One of many Chaetostricha doricha parasitoid wasps of the Trichogrammatidae on the wing at the moment. This beautiful female was found in birch in the garden. Additional pictures below show wing and antenna detail.

The children painted with worms (rubber); made a squish painting to show the mirror image of what they painted; made a super cute tissue snail and an insect crayon rubbing. The children then explored several sensory stations. Magnets; rings; fidget toys; sensory bins were multi-colored rice with lizards, dinosaur skeleton dig, fresh made play dough. Other sensory tables items included gel spiders, stack wood beads on a stick, counting and picking up numerous insects, and sensory houses.

My first Skipper. Sunday 17 June 2012. 13:31. Hampstead Heath, London N6.

 

I'm not sure if its a big or small skipper. I'm going to plump for Large Skipper(Ochlodes venata). I've no idea what the other insect is. Update: Many thanks to Harryf2011 below for confirming it is a large Skipper www.flickr.com/photos/harrylepidopterist/

A video clip of a 0.5mm long female Anagrus atomus parasitoid wasp of the Mymaridae family walking and preening under water. It was found in a yellow pan with approximately 50mm depth of water, but it was alive and walking. When the pan was moved it fell over and was affected by the fluid movement, but as soon as the water became still it continued on its perambulations. On many occasions Mymarid wasps have been observed under water in seemingly good health for quite some time. Once helped out of the water they are able to preen and recover their ability to fly after a short time, provided the process of exiting the water is gentle. Scelionid wasps found in water appear dead and unmoving yet frequently recover after drying.

So much for the old adage that animals don't Poop where they eat!!LOL
