A Dock Bug catching some sunshine in my garden. Shrewsbury, Shropshire, May 2024.

Testing a new flash system out, seems to be OK. Nissin i60a + Nissin Air10s commander, actually really timpressed with it. A Hemipteran (True Bug) probably one of two species of Stictopleurus found in the UK.

A nymph of the Ant Damsel Bug (Himacerus mirmicoides) that in its early stages really does do an excellent job mimicking a black ant, certainly fooled me when I first spotted it. They seem to be quite common in my garden occurring on an ornamental hawthorn tree. Shrewsbury, Shropshire, April 2022.

Javesella pellucida I think, a common Planthopper that is usually found on grassland. This one was found on my unmown lawn that is a mixture of grasses and wild flowers. May 2021, Shrewsbury, Shropshire.

A tiny Mirid bug hiding in a French marigold flower in my garden. Shrewsbury, Shropshire 6th October 2019.
