Female nymph of Roesel's Bush

A small dungfly sitting on Cow Parsley in my gardewn. Shrewsbury, Shropshire, May 2024.

Testing a new flash system out, seems to be OK. Nissin i60a + Nissin Air10s commander, actually really timpressed with it. A Hemipteran (True Bug) probably one of two species of Stictopleurus found in the UK.

A nymph of the Ant Damsel Bug (Himacerus mirmicoides) that in its early stages really does do an excellent job mimicking a black ant, certainly fooled me when I first spotted it. They seem to be quite common in my garden occurring on an ornamental hawthorn tree. Shrewsbury, Shropshire, April 2022.

Just a fly.
