Glow worms: Spectators head to South Downs for breeding season ( www.bbc.co.uk )
It’s late at night on the South Downs as a group of ardent wildlife spotters gather round a pair of glow-worms appearing to copulate.
While the insect is declining in many parts of the UK, the healthy population of glow-worms at the Sussex beauty spot is drawing in spectators.
Watched by a small crowd, the insects don’t seem to be put off by the lack of privacy.
