Talking about things found in the long grass, I cut my back lawn (meadow look-alike) last weekend and I just noticed a quivering tiny froglet clinging to the edge of the grass by a fence. I missed it with the lawnmower and the strimmer but haven't seen it since, although left an old china container full of water, just in case. I also saw a lot of ladybirds, also in the long grass. At my daughter's there were loads of butterflies in her standard plants - her cats were going mad jumping in after them!Solar Suntellite 250 x16 4kW Afore 3600TL dual 2KW E 2KW W no shade, DN15 March 14
