A team of fifteen, as well as a group of birders, contributed to this week's survey under warm, humid and partly sunny conditions. Arthropods develop through complete or incomplete metamorphosis. In the former, a larva passes through a pupa stage before becoming an adult; in the latter, there is no pupa before the nymph matures. Nymphs, a larva and a pupa are shown below.
