Garden inventory

Temp. 28C
 
Photo:  early morning shot of a crow coming in to land over the lily pond- taken on automatic wildlife camera
 
Missing from the garden this year:
 
wasps
moths
green fly
dragonfly
caterpillars
grey squirrels
 
Reduced numbers:
butterflies
 
As plentiful as ever:
snails,
slugs
magpies
 
What this reveals is that insects, bottom of the food chain, are diminishing rapidly and the spin off from this will be felt amongst the bird population and small mammals.
What have you found either missing , or less of ,this year? I would love to know.
