Met another farmers daughter at the Oxford Natural History Museum www.oum.ox.ac.uk today who goes absolutely bonkers over Dung Beetles. She is a really enthusiastic entomologist who simply can not get enough of them and gets to travel all over the world looking for them. Dung Beetles can be found on all land masses except Antarctica so no need to pack the thermals. The great thing is that soon you will be seeing more of her as she gets entomology on our TV screens. Her name is Sarah Beynon www.allaboutbeetles.co.uk and is at present making a programme in conjunction with another well known farming entomologist, Jimmy Doherty. Jimmy's Wood should be aired next spring (2012). We will be watching!
