Interestingly enough (at least to me), I used to greatly dislike ichneumon flies in my youth on account of their injecting their eggs into caterpillars who then acted as unwilling hosts until their guests had eaten them up. Yuk. For some reason, I also took against L Hugh Newman, the son of the BBC's 'butterfly man'. I think maybe he was a bit too much of a commercial seller of butterflies. Anyway, we used to call him IchNewman. Thanks again and all warm wishes, MartinMartinWainwrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08383027708524885786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1939528489287886153.post-44832221864506750252010-09-28T13:12:04.403+01:002010-09-28T13:12:04.403+01:00Hi Martin.
