Hortpark - Lovely but devoid of healthy insect presence

 Hortpark on this particular Sunday is filled with lush greenery and delightful flowers. However, insects - other than ants and bees - have been decimated and I am sad to report that the insects that we had seen in abundance and great variety  some two years ago in our parks and nature reserves seemed to have vanished into history. Not wanting to waste a beautiful, cool morning on lamenting the disappearance of our beloved insects, we took advantage of the day by enjoying our walk although at each turn we were hoping to be surprised by an insect that could take our breath away.
