30th July |
High Heath in bad light.
Heavy and frequent rain showers. |
A tiny (9mm.) bee on Knapweed. |
Two leaf-miners: On the left, Mompha raschkiella, a micromoth, on Rosebay Willowherb, and an Angelica miner on the right.
|
Two Ichneumonid shots. The specimen on the right is under the flowerhead, huntiing for hosts.
|
This must be the smallest 'fly-shaped' fly I've found. It looked like a tiny bright yellow dot as it moved over the Angelica. About 2mm long. |
Another shot of a smaller (9mm) Ectemnius wasp. |
A fantasic tiny Ichneumon, smaller than an ant.
|
It was raining as I took most of these shots. This Dolichovespula sylvestris - Tree Wasp - is clearly uninterested in the amount of water building up on its back and wings.
