Peeling bark on the old leylandii stump

A pair of amorous ladybirds who throught they were hidden from prying eyes

Lots of tiny pollen beetles, especially on the tête-a-tete.

A pretty pink Dianthus

A button daisy

Finally a rather tatty Peacock Butterfly on the Heather

It was lovely to get out in the fresh air without having to wrap up like an Inuit.
As so often happens the thing I went out to photograph eluded me.
I had spotted a Bee-fly hovering several times but it was camera shy.
Good to see life carrying on. Those Ladybirds need a talking to. Haven't they heard of the 2m rule?
ReplyDeleteLovely to see your photographs. Not seen a Bee Fly here yet - hope you managed to get a photo.
ReplyDeleteYour insect life is much more plentiful down there than it is up here at 600 feet asl Jon.
