Lovely lunchtime #FITcount on knapweed outside the office at @ukceh.bsky.social Wallingford. Good to see a brown argus butterfly land in my quadrat too! The wildflower diversity in our meadow has really held well despite the lack of rain. @pomscheme.bsky.social
A great day at RHS Garden Rosemoor discovering #pollinators with RHS staff and volunteers. The rain held off for two fun #FITcount sessions, Scabious and Fennel buzzing with insects in the Cottage Garden! #BeesNeedsWeek2025
Thanks to everyone who came to see us in the @ukceh.bsky.social stand or #Biodiversity Bimble at #Groundswell. Lots of inspiring chat on insect monitoring within regenerative farming systems, plus a #FITCount on white clover in the showground 🐝😍☀️
Busiest ever #FITcount with 42 insects visiting this gorgeous Euphorbia seguieriana in my garden! Lovely to see so many tiny white-faced Hylaeus bees, ruby-tailed wasps and others, wasn’t sure what to do when a social wasp started preying on the small flies I had just counted @pomscheme.bsky.social
Lots of #InsectWeek activities at the @royentsoc.bsky.social garden at Stratford Cross, East London today! Can you spot any of the #PoMS target flowers for a #FITcount?
This patch of wild red clover was perfect for a relaxing #FITcount in the garden today @pomscheme.bsky.social
I harvested small amounts of seed from a local meadow 3 years ago and finally the yellow rattle has helped clear the grasses to make way for more wildflowers
Hoverflies are out in numbers doing their thing. Good time to do a @pomscheme.bsky.social #FITcount see ukpoms.org.uk/fit-counts

FIT Count Summary 2024 Even 10 minutes standing watching your local insects can help. How hard can that be?
