WORZEL the young bald eagle just landed after putting on a show stopper of a soaring display. Thanks Zai for the image!

Our pair of pueblan milksnakes are always lookers with their bright but fake warning livery

Cool wasp mimic beetle on my van door today!

A great image by Ben Guntrip, last weekend Worzel the young Bald Eagle along with a superb commentary by my good friend Tom Morath got one huge spontaneous round of applause after his show stopping performance

In the blink of an eye the glorious may blossom of the hawthorns have faded and now the elders are coming into full flower, summer is well underway

My talks often see me introducing kids to animals from all over the world, but my passion is to get them to notice the wonderful world of nature all around them here in The UK, this blue butterfly is surely as good as any in the world!

Hognose, what more can I say?!

Off to Peterborough now to give. A birds of prey talk to a regular school of mine

False water cobra soon to lay her eggs, I love these snakes

I turned up to school today to give two nocturnal animal talks, waiting for me on the wall outside was this beautiful privet hawk moth! One of our largest moth species. She came in to be the star of my show before releasing her back outside. Brilliant,

Year 6 were very brave today when they had a visit from Dave RaptorXotics who introduced them to some of his little, and not so little, friends!

The deaths head hawk moth caterpillars have arrived! sadly they'll be pupae after the summer holls!

Wow! Caterpillars are growing fast!

These deaths head hawk. Moth caterpillars have been a real treat for school kids the last few days, but now they're already pupating! Moths coming soon...

The first cool breeze for weeks= flying perfection from the bald eagle!

We had a great time flying birds at the Althorp book festival, Charles Spencer even popped by and said many of his guests were saying nice things about the birds.

FoxfieldPrimary RaptorXotics Year 1 had a fabulous time learning about the animals.We held a snake, touched a frog, a stick insect and we looked a cute hedgehog.

What a fantastic way for Class 2 to finish our Amazing Animals topic...RaptorXotics! Having a fact-filled, fun morning, sharing what we know and learning so much more!

Last but not least... Terry the hedgehog! What a fab morning, the children are super thrilled (and the grown ups too 😀). RaptorXotics
