My garden and then a late visit to high heath.

 

Frequent rain showers.

 

The second generation Peacocks have started. I see one or two each time I'm out.

 

Helophilus pendulus is a very busy hoverfly. They rarely stop for a photograph.

 

I've been seeing this leafhopper for a while, now, without getting an id. A bit of perseverance has delivered Cicadella viridis.

 

These litle Solitary Bees were being less solitary than usual. I suppose they must have grubs to feed.

 

This is the beast behind the Willow leaf damage. The Green Willow Leaf Beetle - Gastrophysa viridula.

The white Bush Vetch is making a second push. Summer must be over.

 

This Apple tree grows amongst the willows up on the bog. The apples are small but taste rather good.
