Many of our guest speakers have allowed us to record their talks & those are now on our Blackboard Ultra site for student members to watch as we understand access is difficult right now. Specific talks in the thread below: @BangorBioZoo @BangorUni @BangorSNS @Bangorstudents

Heliophanus flavipes having supper - the look on the leafhoppers face says it all really 😬 @BritishSpiders #macrophotography #ThePhotoHour #macrohour #nature #NaturePhotography #BBCSpringwatch

This will never get tired. It brings me huge joy to see children discovering the wonderful world of invertebrates 🥰🪲

Feeling so privileged to receive a talk on Huntsman spiders from the expert herself, Dr Linda Rayor!

We have the wonderful Dr Linda Rayor coming along this Thursday at 7.30pm to give a talk on the social huntsman spider, Sparassidae! Social behaviours in spiders is a rare occurrence, to learn about this niche topic from a leading scientist is an amazing opportunity!

Lots of great UK wildlife and nature talks on our Cofnod YouTube Channel. Introduction to #Ferns and #Macro Photography for records are just the latest additions... @cambrianphoto @fernatix @TreborthBG @fossilplants @joshual951 @BangorEntSoc youtube.com/channel/UC5pUU…

Bug bothering! Biology Students often ask what their specialism should be; I say entomology; No field of biology is as diverse, as ripe for new discoveries. If you want to understand how ecosystems function, study the little things that make the world go round. @Buzz_dont_tweet

@EntoProf @NHSMillion Happy birthday from all of us at Bangor University Entomology Society! 🥳

So I'm 66 today - two things - a) how did I get so old when I still feel 17 in my head and b) many thanks and a huge shout out to our wonderful @NHSMillion who have, through their skill, care & dedication enabled me to be here today to celebrate becoming an Old Age Pensioner :-)

@duckinwales Yep! This year it's free due to Covid-19 but usually its £15 per year. You 'should' be able to apply for membership via this link: undebbangor.com/groups/entomol… However, if it doesn't work that is also fine. We can directly send you links to our events through an email (dm us).

@BangorEntSoc Can alumni become ento soc members?
