    Your Shield bug looks as though he's had a good feed on your plants Kedi, nice shot.

    Found this big lad on one of my Asters this morning I think he'd been there all night and might be hungover as he was very sluggish, think he needs some [​IMG]

    Brill shots Kedi, I think your little Bumble Bee looks as though its been in the sugar basin :D, you seem to have a lot more insects buzzing round your garden than I have at the moment

    Yes, my little bumblebee sure dusted himself with pollen but your out-all-night one is just brilliant, Alfie :thumb: The close-ups of the face are amazing, just look at the detail! Very well caught :thumb:
