This large, fluffy-looking moth is on the wing in July and August, but you might spot a caterpillar at almost any time of year.

The brown hare is known for its long, black-tipped ears and fast running - it can reach speeds of 45mph when evading predators.

As the UK’s tallest bird the common crane is instantly recognisable with the ruffle of tail feathers and very long legs. Their bugling call is also very distinctive.

The sea hare looks like a sea slug – but in fact has an internal shell. They can be up to 20cm long but are usually much shorter.

This large shieldbug lives up to its name, bristling with long pale hairs. It's a common sight in parks, hedgerows and woodland edges in much of the UK.

These moths can be seen flying on sunny days, but you're more likely to spot the fuzzy caterpillars crawling over paths.
