Earwigs
Today I have learnt that you can tell a mummy or daddy earwig by the shape of its pinchers. A mummy has straight pinchers and a daddy has curved pinchers. Yesterday I found a daddy earwig when I was shaking the bushes. Thank you to Colin at http://florafaunauk.blogspot.co.uk for encouraging me to look up and learn about this and also for the lovely post written just for me about someone who also likes to find things, just like me, take a look at this:
