Ivy Bees and Other Local Insects

 The Ivy Bee having arrived in our area about 4 years ago is now by far the commonest visitor to the ivy flowers. The bees in the first images are at their nest on a neighbour's lawn. There were also lots of Shield bugs on my walk round Toft including the Box Bug, which is another winner from global warming, Dock bug and the colourful Hawthorn Shieldbug. Otherwise lots of Cucumber spiders at work and still a good number of hoverflies and wasps.
