Wakeham
Not much today I'm afraid. Too cold and very windy.
Common Carder Bee (Bombus pascuorum)
A Garden Bumblebee (Bombus hortorum)
An Early Bumblebee (Bombus pratorum) on a Bramble flower
Trivial Plant Bug (Closterotomus trivialis)
A larvae of a Harlequin Ladybird (Harmonia axyridis)
A "Looper"
caterpillar from the
Geometridae family on one of the
Crown Daisy's (
Glebionis coronaria). Well I'm not saying it is, but when I googled a "light brown looper caterpillar on a daisy flower in the UK", it came back with it being most likely a
Common Emerald (
Hemithea aestivaria), with the larva known as the "tiny looper". Apparently these caterpillars are slow-growing and can be found on various trees and plants, including flowers like
daisies. Hmm
#1 - Greenbottle (Lucilia sp.)
#2 - Fly sp.
#3 - Fly sp.
#4 - Fly sp.
Ted keeping an eye on me.
