The flower is about 1" in diameter. Carol

In my book that makes for quite a large bug,, but well spotted none the less, my adventures in bug hunting thus far have been limited to flying bugs, and one earwig.

That's quite small for the scabious Carol - we have them growing in a meadow area on the way to work and they are much larger than that.
Splendid detail as ever

Excellent set Carol,every year I look forward to visiting a small wood on the west of the IW, in early autumn it has a large amount of Devils bit scabious which attracts a wonderful array of insects, thank you for all your insect posts this year, I have enjoyed them so much.
