Wakeham

It was a day where I was just not feeling it. So instead of a walk around my local patch it was just a wander up the garden and back, which didn't take long as there was very little to see.

Other than a Common Carder Bee and a Common Furrow-bee, the only other insects I came across were an Ichneumon Wasp and a Leafhopper.

Bees Recorded:
Common Carder Bee Bombus pascuorum
Common Furrow-bee Lasioglossum calceatum

Still just the one Common Carder Bee Bombus pascuorum on the Lavender Lavandula sp.

A very lethargic Common Furrow-bee Lasioglossum calceatum sat on my finger.

Wasps, Ichneumon Wasps, Parasitic Wasps and Gall Wasps Recorded:
Ichneumon Wasp sp. - Possibly a Black Slip Wasp Pimpla rufipes

An Ichneumon Wasp sp. - Possibly a Black Slip Wasp Pimpla rufipes

Leafhoppers Recorded:

A very tiny Leafhopper Typhlocybinae sp.
