Here are a range of insects that were about in the garden on April 1st. First image shows a minute Barklouse which is a small, scavenging insect that feeds on fungi, algae, lichen and organic detritus under bark. The wings may be absent or reduced as in this one. The next three images are of Hemiptera (Bugs) followed by the very attractive Hairy-footed Flower Bee and Common Carder Bee. The tiny Ichneumon lays eggs in moth larvae while the Mining Bee (Adrena nitida) will be searching for holes in the ground to lay their eggs. Safari fiished with Peacock Butterfly and Common Wasp.
