[Morpheus uk]

I went to Jersey in the channel islands for 2 weeks last year, but ive only just got round to uploading all the photos so heres the various wild life of Jersey

If anyone can give me good ID`s of both common and scientific names i`d be really grateful

Garden orb weavers just like the ones we have over here

This one was spotted whilst browsing for lizards

This one was found in the gardens at this home centre

Now for the big wasp spiders which were found on a patch of grassland

Long horned bush crickets, found in the same patch of grassland as the wasp spiders

Wasp capturing a catepillar, they both fell onto my lap of all people whilst sitting at a cafe under a tree at Durrel zoo

Unknown beetle founding around a cliff laying eggs onto a grass stem

Oak harvester, found tonnes of these outside of the tent, far more preferable than the orange thing, these thing were great, i bet they`d be interesting to keep :hmm:
