Tues July 19th: Through the 40C barrier...

 The all-time UK temperature record gets smashed again...  The 38.7C record set on 25/7/2019 barely lasted three years, with at least 34 places surpassing it today and at least three breaking the 40C barrier.

Someone had to go out Emperoring in That, though I don't see why it had to be me, and no one else did...  I only managed to see two males, during a two hour vigil in temps seemingly ranging between 34C and 36C. They'd conked out in heavy shade, which is the only sensible thing this insane insect has ever done...


I'm heading back to Knepp tomorrow. It will be interesting to see what's left there... ... ...
