I am still on a quest to record all the insects in my garden - sometimes interesting (!) photos of familiar species like these mating Sphaerophoria scripta and some new species like the bug Dicyphus epilobii.

RSPB Sandy Bugs, Fungi and Hobby
Yesterday was the RPS Nature Group outing to RSPB HQ at Sandy. It was postponed from previous week and the weather was slightly improved as largely dry but still windy and cool. However, we did manage to find a good selection of plant bugs, crickets, butterflies and dragonflies. Mike and I took an early morning walk round and spotted a Hobby and quite a few unseasonably early fungi.

Bugs Alive in the Garden
Half an hour in the garden yesterday produced a good number of bugs (Order Hemiptera). Here photos of two plant hoppers - the common meadow Leaf hopper and a Lacebug and among the plant bugs Orthops basalis (2 views), Heterogaster urticae, Heterotoma planicornis, Plagiognathus arbustorum (3 views) and Closterotomus norwegicus.
