Another phone pic of these Southern Green Shield Bug nymphs, taken at the same location 5 days after the earlier shot. At a rough guess there were at least 50 on this bush. They appear to all be 4th instar.
Stilt Bug, Metatropis rufescens, (Berytidae family).
Length 9-11 mm.
This large and unmistakeable orange-brown Stilt Bug is a woodland species, feeding on the leaves of Enchanter's Nightshade, Circaea lutetiana, an indicator of ancient woodland. They feed predominantly on the reproductive organs of the plants.
Despite its name, Enchanter’s Nightshade is unrelated to other Nightshades. It actually belongs to the willowherb family and is found in sun-dappled woodland, flowering between June and September.
Found throughout much of southern Britain including Wales, although absent from Ireland. It occurs in shady, mostly moist habitats in deciduous forests.
Overwintering occurs as an imago, (the final and fully developed adult stage), under loose bark or dry ground litter. Mating occurs in May and the females lay their eggs individually in June and July on the stems and leaves of Enchanter's Nightshade. From August, sometimes also in July, the emergent new generation occurs, and nymphs can be found until September.
A bug, possibly of the Pentatomidae family, but I cannot get any closer than that..

Non Native invasive species from North America. Had an incident with my car windscreen. Recovered fine but I made use of the reflection. Big beast just under 2 cm long.
This one got Explored!
I wanted an awesomely detailed face shot. The beetle had other ideas. Well at least it is still detailed.
Kern's Flower Scarab (Euphoria kernii)
Texas Thistle (Cirsium texanum)

There are aphids on this rosebud. Apparently, the big one is a mother who has given birth to all the little ones.
The camera can see better than I can. I had no idea there were bugs there.
There were ladybug larvae on the roses last year, so hopefully they will appear and gobble up the aphids.
Speke Hall
The kitchen garden in the grounds of Speke Hall. The little wooden building by the terracotta bell pots on the left, is a hotel for bugs and insects. The beds in the garden are planted with potato’s, broccoli, cabbage, carrots and numerous other veg. In the far right corner is an area dedicated to herbs.
The building with the very wonky chimney that is situated just outside the garden is now a cafe, In the 1600’s this was a much large timber framed barn.
Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.
I saw this bug on a car window. When I saw the image on the computer I liked the effect and to me it looks as if it is in space.
This bug is genus Riptortus, a pod-sucking true bug, with piercing and sucking mouthparts.
Body length 20 mm.

Kind of stands out in a crowd with those bold colors. It's a milkweed assassin bug nymph. A lot of insects associated with milkweed have the bright orange & black colors to warn predators they are toxic. This bug is not really associated with milkweed and got its name due to the resemblance to milkweed (nonassassin) bugs that do feed on milkweed. This one was on my Indian Hawthorn hedges. Confused yet?

I don't usually tend to double up with my uploads but this is another shot of the Brown Shield Bugs on my Tibouchina tree taken two days ago after a small petal fell on them during overnight rain and scattered them a bit. This shot was again taken end on with near maximum aperture but with a flash and shows the reality we face dealing with shallow depths of field.
I was doing a bit of research over the weekend and was also amazed at the difference to DOF that different focal lengths make. For instance with two otherwise similar lenses with otherwise similar settings, a factor of two in differential focal length (say 105mm to say 60mm) results in DOF's for the same aperture that can be five or more times different. That's a significant amount and meaningful in terms of outcomes of macro photography and shots.
Here’s a leaf-footed bug (Leptoglossus phyllopus) silhouetted on my kitchen window

Bugs Bunny is an animated cartoon character, created in the late 1930s
Bugs Bunny is an anthropomorphic gray and white hare or rabbit who is famous for his flippant, insouciant personality. He is also characterized by a Brooklyn accent, his portrayal as a trickster, and his catch phrase "Eh... What's up, doc?" Due to Bugs' popularity during the golden age of American animation, he became an American cultural icon and the official mascot of Warner Bros. Entertainment. Wikipedia
Every morning I look out my windows and I see cute bunnies hoping around, playing, and having fun… They always brighten my morning..
