Six spot Ladybird

Most of the ladybirds have started to disappear for the colder months but a warm day still brings the odd one out.

Cloud walker

I think I will have to get away from spiders but around here they are everywhere. Also when short of time they are always hanging around. That a terrible pun, sorry.

Crane fly

This crane fly was holding on tight in a strong wind. He’s on a plastic oil tank so resting my lens on the tank I got this shot by putting myself between him and wind. It was not an easy shot had to work for this one.

Mite Gall on Beech leaf.

I came across these growing on leaves on a beech tree. After a bit of searching on Google I discovered these are Galls. There are different types ,some are fly or wasp related and some are mite related. Inside the gall lives the young from which ever insect or mite layed there eggs in the leaf . Tried to identify to whom these galls belong. If anyone should know please let me know.
