Garden Safari: The Bug Five!

Series
Back Garden Biology
Video Embed
Did you know that just five groups of insects dominate your garden? And can you tell the difference between bugs and beetles?
In this week's episode, meet the Bug Five and learn how to tell them apart, with beautiful drawings by Lindsay's former student, Pandora Dewan, and lots of new video clips. You are encouraged to select your own Bug Five, by choosing your favourite representative of each of the five groups and you can decide whether Linday's Bug Five are better or worse than those selected by entomologist Liam Crowley.
