GREEN SHIELD BUG
Adult shield bugs will hibernate in leaf litter and emerge in May to feed on plant sap.
Just looks like another leaf!

WREN AGAIN ...
Have you heard a wren in your garden or on your allotment today? I have, couldn't have failed to, how can such a tiny bird have such a huge voice?
LEAF PICTURE ...
This lovely picture of an owl sitting in a tree under the moon is very imaginative and was put together by Ginny at The Flour Loft’s seven year old daughter. She has used bark for the trunk, flowers pressed from last year, fallen leaves from an Amelanchier tree and the rest was collected from a recent walk.

I find these fascinating! I also saw a dock bug recently. Flighty xx
What a clever fellow!
They are strange looking creatures, my daughter loves them.
I like the angle on this one! Shield bugs are great!
i am looking at one right now and your website helped me identify it, thank you
Striking capture, filled with beautiful colors.!! Well done my friend. I know how tiny this beautiful bug is and you captured it so well.
It's insane to see how a simple bug can cammoflauge themselves to look identical to a plant. Amazing. You've captured the same colors of a plant as the rodent.
