This time a post that features macros of the bugs and wild blooms that are around at the moment. Unfortunately I haven't got a shot of the bugs that are eating me alive. Those devious little sods are too quick and deft to be captured.
The opener was chosen because I have seen very few of these this year. I know the population varies year on year but this is the worst year I have ever noted and, sad that I am, I do note bug populations carefully. It is not surprising though because I have seen very few Greenfly this year and that is their favourite food. Whatever, no doubt things will rectify themselves in future years but it has been a very strange year all round.
Thanks for viewing and I hope that you enjoy at least some of these images.
