Look at this thing, apparently normal to see in England. Google lens says:
Based on the provided region, this insect appears to be a parasitic wasp, with search results suggesting it could be a species like Amblyteles armatorius or another member of the Ichneumonidae family. [ 1 , 2 ]
Characteristics: These wasps are known for their striking black and yellow banded abdomens and can vary in appearance between males and females.
Behavior: They are parasitoids, meaning the larvae develop inside or on host insects, such as caterpillars, eventually killing them.
Habitat: They are commonly found in woodlands, hedgerows, and gardens, often rummaging through low vegetation. [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 ]

We sadly have had to relocate our chickens. The good news is that they have gone to the farm my son attends daily, so we can still visit and chuck them some worms. Very sad to see an empty coop outside my window, but I'm sure they will enjoy Thier new rural life and get to socialise eventually with other chickens. The resident peacock came to check them out when they arrived.
