This was so hyper-active that i couldn't manage a crisp focus!
Also known as Paper kite butterfly.
Been trying and failing for weeks to get a sharp capture of a bee, the ones in our garden really don’t keep still long enough. Went to the woodlands yesterday and this little guy was getting drunk on nectar and didn’t seem to notice I was there, perhaps he should have used a straw like the butterflies 😂

The Colorado potato beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata), also known as the Colorado beetle, the ten-striped spearman, the ten-lined potato beetle, or the potato bug, is a major pest of potato crops. It is about 10 mm (3⁄8 in) long, with a bright yellow/orange body and five bold brown stripes along the length of each of its elytra. Native to the Rocky Mountains, it spread rapidly in potato crops across America and then Europe from 1859 onwards.
This one was sitting in my garden with no potato field in miles around, so I left it alone...
