Good to see our first Large Skipper of the year last week. More to follow hopefully! 🦋🧡😁 #Butterflies

Happy Sunday everyone! 🤗 Here’s a Calocoris roseomaculata nymph in the middle of a Moon Daisy for #SundayYellow #Insects #BugSky

A Heron having a long, contemplative soak in the bath for @alan678.bsky.social ’s #BirdOfTheDay theme #SilentPresence
This Click Beetle turned up on one of the Moon Daisies in the garden. I wondered if it could be Athous campyloides? I’d appreciate an opinion 🙏 @nottscoleoptera.bsky.social #InsectThursday #Beetles #Coleoptera
We encountered this very impressive Ichneumon at Westonbirt Arboretum last week. I did a bit of research and came up with possible Opheltes glaucopterus but I’m very happy to be corrected! #InsectThursday #Ichneumonidae @jasboparai.bsky.social
Pete was photographing this moth last week when he noticed a tiny creature next to it. It turns out to be an Assassin Bug, Empicoris culiciformis, as far as I can tell #InsectThursday #BugSky
I love the way this little Fly is reaching out! It’s the Signal Fly Platystoma seminationis. I’ve also seen it called the Dancing Kiss Fly which is rather sweet! #FlyDay #Insects #EastCoastKin
