The Eyes Have It.......

Bug with parasite

This bug was also seen walking around, carrying a small parasite.

Aphids

These aphids were spotted in a willow tree - they seem to turn brown over time. Some of them in this photo also appear to be parasitised.

Ladybirds

There have been hardly any ladybirds in the garden all year, then last week they suddenly all appeared. The following were all seen on the same set of plants:

7 Spot Ladybird

Harlequin ladybirds
