If you see Stag Beetles when you're out and about please report the sighting here:
https://stagbeetles.ptes.org/take-part-in-the-great-stag-hunt/
it's easy enough on your phone and photos help the survey too

they were a frequent summer sight when I was a kid but the small male I spotted this morning was the first I'd seen in probably two years

I often see them when walking around High Elms.
The wooded area just behind the golf course. 
Plenty of fallen down trees which they seem to like.

I can't remember the last time I saw one. As you say, used to see them all the time as a kid.

Dartford B&M carpark. I'm not sure what they had been buying.

Doesn’t look like they’ve bought anything. Probably just having a gander. 

Or the security guard told them to duck off

Or didn't like the size of the bill

B&M is a bargain store and geese don't go cheap

Frozen ponds on Chislehurst!

My mandarin is looking a bit less exciting now! But he's a happy dad!
