My Wild Life

My night club

Ania and Becky know that wildlife can be found in unexpected places at unusual times, and surveying bats in the centre of Taunton at night is nothing out of the ordinary for them.

Species

Brown-tail

The caterpillars of this fluffy white moth are best admired from a distance, as their hairs can irritate the skin.

Species

Herald

This unmistakable moth spends the winter as an adult, tucked away in a sheltered spot like a cave or outbuilding.

Species

Mullein

You're more likely to see the attractive, brightly coloured caterpillars than the mullein moth itself.

Species

Scarlet tiger

This beautiful moth is often found resting on leaves, though it does also fly during the day.

Skokholm Island

Lying in the Celtic Sea two miles off the southwest Pembrokeshire coast, Skokholm has its own charm and sense of remoteness with tall, sandstone cliffs and a wild landscape. The island is approximately half a mile across at its widest point and a mile in length which makes it perfect for exploring. There are never more than 26 people on the island, that’s 10 acres of space for every visitor!
