About me:
Devon based amateur, always been a bit of a nature geek, always been interested in all wildlife, probably started listing in 1994, on birds, but branched out into butterflies, dragonflies and rare plants, but things went totally wayward in 2010 when I decided to list everything I saw in Devon that year.. since then specialising a bit in Spiders, and one day I'll update my Bristletail (Archeognatha/Thysunura) website..
Age:
50
My bogey species:
Arctosa alpigena.
My most wanted:
Ladybird Spider, Arctosa alpigena ** :) **
Hydnellum peckii - bleeding toothed fungus.
Latest addition:
Obviously this year was dominated by the Spider Year List with an astounding 50 spider lifers in 2019 - almost one a week and it wasn't like i was starting from scratch. Congratulations to the winner Graeme, but you know I had a great time, plus some amazing spiders :-
