I have those but prefer the BBC's life in the undergrowth series

I already have "Life in the Undergrowth". Dalton and Brackenbury are on the way.
That video is a treat! One of the peculiarities of my personal website is that somehow it has become the #1 hit for Google images query on mating slugs -- even though I've only seen the event one time and have only posted one picture of it! I added the youtube link to my page just now.
Many thanks for the pointers, guys.

My copies of these books have now arrived. I have one word: "Wow!"AndrewC wrote:Just look at the works of Dalton or Brackenbury. If they aren't in your library already you owe it to yourself to have "The Miracle of Flight" and "Insects In Flight" respectively.
Many thanks for the recommendations.
