Summer might be coming to an end but there is still an abundance of insect activity as species prepare for winter and make the most of late-flowering plants. I met Benny Hawksbee, an urban gardener and invertebrate evangelist who spends time caring for the Eden Nature Garden in Clapham.
“Like all animals, these insects, when observed instead of wafted away, can be quite charismatic, and often we completely misunderstand them,” Hawksbee explains.
