I think the insects in our area are a bit slow to arrive this year too. I've seen a few bumblebees but only saw my first red-tailed bumblebee this week which is later than normal & have only seen 3 butterflies so far which is unusual, a small white, a tiny blue & one which might have been a peacock but flew off before I got a good look. I think it is the weather as it's been very windy & the temperature keeps changing, we've usually seen lots more by now.
